This has been brewing a LONG time. N. Korea is no angel in this whole thing either. Shoot....Obama warned Trump of N. Korea before he even took office.
As long as our friends make it back from their deployment safely in that area, that is all I am worried about.

It's okay. The article didn't say anything bad about Trump so it passes the Trumpling censors. Otherwise it would have been scoffed at and labeled "fake news".

"My main business was selling ice. I think that 70 or 80 percent of the adults in Hoeryong city were using ice. My customers were just ordinary people. Police officers, security agents, party members, teachers, doctors. Ice made a really good gift for birthday parties or for high school graduation presents. It makes you feel good and helps you release stress, and it really helps relations between men and women. My 76-year-old mother was using it because she had low blood pressure, and it worked well. Lots of police officers and security agents would come to my house to smoke, and of course I didn’t charge them — they were my protection. They would come by during their lunch break, stop by my house. The head of the secret police in my area was almost living at my house."

LIFE UNDER KIM JONG UN
Recent North Korean escapees relate how the secretive country has changed under the “Great Successor.â€

So you would prefer to let him place nuclear or anthrax on his missiles and let them threaten us?

I hope I never have to use my insurance, but I’m glad I have it.

My desire is to one day throw it all away and say, “ Well, that was a waste of a very tiny portion of the money I’ve made.â€
More power to ya. It seems that every 4 decades or so man's madness just bubbles up and needs to be dealt with.

Sorry, I meant it as humor. It's a running gag about the terminology.

Its like watching a house of cards adding adding and adding.....until the breeze blows it apart. It does not matter whose to blame if the bullets start.

Sadly, every day we do nothing puts our country at more risk. I know Seoul would take the brunt of the devastation, but we gotta protect our own country first.
