Americans held hostage!

Rump needed an enemy to talk big about, trust me.. he wont do shit.

Sanctions maybe... that's about it.
As we get closer to election time Rump will rattle a few sabers and try to dupe you guys into thinking he is about to do something.

We should not have poked them in the first place.

We should manage their nuclear program.

We should engage China to assist with that.

Basically what we have been doing over the last 25 years.

Because we haven't poked them in 25 years? We aren't engaging China?

Rump started poking at them to create an enemy, he knew he needed a foil to act tough with. If you cant see that you are blind.

We have not poked them like Rump did, and when we poked them in the past it was a bad mistake.

Yes, we are engaging with China, like we have been doing for decades.

North Korea has detained a US citizen on suspicion of "hostile acts" against the regime, the state-run Korean Central News Agency reported Sunday.
The regime described Kim Hak-song as "a man who was doing business in relation to the operation of Pyongyang University of Science and Technology." KCNA said the American was detained Saturday, but did not release more details on his alleged crime.

Kim, an ethnic Korean, was born in Jilin, China and educated at a university in California, two people who said they studied with him in the United States told CNN. They described Kim as being committed to improving North Korea's agricultural economy.
Classmate David Kim said that Kim Hak-song came to the United States in the mid-1990s.
"He was a very diligent, hardworking man determined to help people in North Korea," David Kim said.
He said that Kim Hak-song became US citizen in the 2000s and returned to China after about 10 years of living in the United States. He still has family members in China and Korea, David Kim said.
Kim Hak-song also majored in agriculture at a university in Yanbian, China, and two years ago went to Pyongyang, according to David Kim.
"Professor Kim was a man who would call North Korea as his own country. He went to Pyongyang to devote himself to the development of North Korea's agricultural technology so that the North can be self-sufficient with food," David Kim said.
Kim Hak-song ran projects aimed at improving agricultural yields at Pyongyang University of Science and Technology, David Kim said.

Ah, that clarifies things. Let him stay in the shit hole then.
 
NK needs an enemy as much as Rump does. They are engaged in a symbiotic relationship.

When they launch harmless missiles into the ocean, we should pretend not to notice.

by your statements you believe that this whole situation was brought about because trump was president. Yet this exact same thing happened a year or two ago when they got a tourist and sentenced him to hard labor. For life. That was not the only time it happened either.

Americans need to learn not to spend their tourism dollars where they are not wanted.

They are a feckless and impotent enemy. Rump bumped them up trying to pretend they are a real threat. He needs a foil, its part of the Republican way of leading. Get an enemy to rail against so you can distract with fear.

that's the stupidest thing ever..Trump didn't invent this threat.
They are using Iranian tech,and working on militarizing a nuke.

Notice other presidents ( Bush/Clinton/Obama) felt the same- as does the region

He did not invent them, he elevated them to a place they do not deserve. Their leader loves it, it make him seem important, its exactly what he is looking for.

WTF..are you paying attention?
They are testing willy-nilly. If Trump ignored it,you'd be bitching about that.

False, yes they are testing and are so impotent they deserve to be ignored. They are currently getting the reaction they want. They need to stir fear among their people to keep the ruler strong. Sounds familiar?

If a wimp "tests" you, you ignore him. If he is a true threat you respond.
 
nk is 10x the threat libya or iraq will ever be. They actually can do harm on important places like SK and japan.
