impotent old man threatens NKorea if they make threats~unlike the 1,000's in the past

[dukkha]

Does this now mean fire and whatever your dear leader threatened?

rhetoric.

It surely means more then Obama's "strategic indifference" towards NK. Or Fienstein's calls for "talks"

SURVEY OF DECADES OF NEGOTIATIONS with North Koreans reveals that our circumspection regarding their regime type has done no good. Sure, they have very occasionally come to the table, but they have not kept agreements or changed course.
Kim dynasty uses negotiations as cover. North Korea plays to our weaknesses—which include our own academicians who apologize for the regime and blame its behavior on our “insults”; our belief that even totalitarians are “rational actors” who will abide by negotiated agreements; and our susceptibility to false promises and verbal games.
North Korea has used the negotiating process to play for time, violated every agreement, and steadily reinforced its nuclear program and bellicose posture toward its neighbors and the West.

Like their predecessors, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton tried diplomacy with North Korea; but, unlike their predecessors, they continued to pursue diplomatic solutions even after North Korea proved duplicitous, intransigent, and intractable.

McCain as usual is not happy with Trump...seems he wants Trump to back it up or some such belligerence

[Getin the ring]

Pretty easy to risk millions of South Korean lives.

us or them goof ball,
sometimes in life you have choices,
people like you don't have to make those choices, you would run and hide in a corner and soil yourself.

So that being said, this is a very serious matter, it's not political or some kind of game like you wish it to be.
Let's collectively hope Trump does the right thing, if he can talk this crazy fu@k down off the roof then good,
but if there is intelligence, or even just a gut feeling that there is a reality that Kim Jung may lob a nuke at someone,
then may God rest his wretched soul and those caught in the cross fire as Trump protects the USA.

Maybe the old man is gonna send the "American Armada" again?? How many more times are they gonna threaten to nuke the American mainland before he gets really, really, really hecka serious??

Trump warns North Korea will be met with 'fire and fury' if threatens U.S.

BEDMINSTER, N.J./BEIJING (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday warned North Korea it would be met with "fire and fury" if it threatens the United States, ratcheting up the rhetoric with the nuclear-armed nation.

Earlier Pyongyang said it was ready to give Washington a "severe lesson" with its strategic nuclear force in response to any U.S. military action.

Washington has warned it is ready to use force if need be to stop North Korea's ballistic missile and nuclear programs but that it prefers global diplomatic action, including sanctions.

The consequences of any U.S. strike would potentially be catastrophic not only for North Koreans but also South Korea, Japan and the thousands of U.S. military personnel within range of any North Korean retaliatory strikes.

"North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen," Trump told reporters at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.

The U.N. Security Council unanimously imposed new sanctions on North Korea on Saturday over its continued missile tests, that could slash the reclusive country's $3 billion annual export revenue by a third.

North Korea has made no secret of plans to develop a nuclear-tipped missile able to strike the United States and has ignored international calls to halt its nuclear and missile programs.

It says its intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) are a legitimate means of defense against perceived U.S. hostility. It has long accused the United States and South Korea of escalating tensions by conducting military drills.

U.S. stocks closed slightly lower after Trump’s comment, while a widely followed measure of stock market anxiety .VIX ended at its highest in nearly a month. The U.S. dollar index .DXY pared gains and the safe-haven yen JPY= strengthened against the U.S. currency.

Well, it seems the old man got Bowl Cut to blink lol.

NK threatened Guam in response to Trump's saber rattling. In figurative terms, Trump has a loaded 12 gauge pointed at Bowl Cut and Bowl Cut threatened to shoot Trump's tires out.

No one has tried this before. Trump was forced to because Obama left him NK.

It's Trump's game now, annatta, matters little what was done in the past, there is an Orangetweeter in the WH now and he doesnt know what Obama or anyone else did in the past and he doesn't care. He has threatened NK with fire and fury, so if it's rhetoric, it is the President's rhetoric.

i guess you must agree it's time for war, like the Orange Idiot?

your hugging a tree is not going to keep us safe, can we agree.

When CNN sends out one of those news alerts on your Iphone that there may be an incoming Nuke, you'll be like, "Do something Donald, whaaaa, Mommy, whaaaa"

well you see some of us are adults, we know a lot because we have seen a lot, and strength is the biggest deterrent when you are dealing with a crazy coward, make no mistake about that

[Bill]

Of course there is, there won't be a war. The Chinese will finally step in and cut off oil imports if NK won't listen to reason.

& that will make the kid heel @ their feet??

China can cripple NK.

What do you suggest we do?

Sanctioning NK has gotten us to the point NK reach the west coast with a loaded ICBM. More sanctions?

Well their army, air force and navy won't get very far without fuel.

[Bill]

Well their army, air force and navy won't get very far without fuel.

What about their missiles??

[tsuke]

I like that we have house words now. Just in time for agot.

FIRE AND FURY! MAGA!

Question? "IF" the old man is so impotent.....what does that say about Hilary and the demokrauts? One thing your post declares is the fact that you are a "war monger" just like your ancestral demwits who never encountered an excuse for a war they could not take advantage of. Invading Iraq was wrong....but LETS NUKE THE HELL out of South East Asia? Really? Your political affiliations are more important than the lives of billions of human beings?

You "evil" asswipes deserve each other. All the wars of recent history. WWI "Wilson" progressive WW2 "Roosevelt" progressive First nuclear strike? democrat "Truman" Korean War "Truman" Vietnam "Kennedy/Johnson" democrat/liberal Creator of the world terrorist network? "Mr. Peanut Carter" Liberal..who granted them the power and appeasement. "Gulf War"....."CIA head shadow government" "Bush" Gulf War 2? Son of Bush. World Trade Center Attack...manufactured by progressive politics and Bill Clinton's inaction and unwillingness to ACT against those who declared war on the US.

Your demonstrated words mirror exactly Obama's administration words, "Never allow a good crisis to go to waste...."

Evil is as Evil does.

[cancel2 2022]

What about their missiles??

I would say that their artillery aimed at South Korea are far more worrisome.
