And of cause Alt-News is covering it first. Infowars actually broke this news a few days earlier.

And this just broke too

Here we go. Strap in guys.

[MistyTiger]

Gee, just what I wanted for Christmas... news of a bloody, pointless war sponsored by Trump and Idiots Inc. The US needs a permanent holiday from these warmonger and drama llama types.

[Godstud]

Infowars as a source?

OK. Nothing to see here.

Move along.

It's BS.

Nope. The mainstream media is going Batshit over it as usual. I just noted how Infowars reported it two days ahead.

News.com.au is Rupert Murdoch MSM....

Another MSM report on it:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/12 ... ack-north/


And again more MSM:
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/12/20 ... -says.html

....anyone getting Deja Vu? Except we already know he's got nukes and weapons this time.

There's also reports circulating that North Korean Hackers targeted the Bitcoin exchange and stole heaps of cash.

Hope you didn't lose anything Igor. Better check.

[foxdemon]

@colliric my expectation is for them to wait for the northern spring. Rudd and others think this too. So my money is on March or April. But who knows. The fat kid might screw up so badly that they will go in early.

USA is such a war monger even if is true Rocket Man is testing biological weapons or has any real intention to strike USA (or anyone for that matter) I don't believe it. Sounds a lot like that Sarin Gas attack in Syria that never happened and Assad never ordered.

Question is: will Trump appear on US national TV crying crocodile tears like Obama did? And say they will strike NK to save North Korean children from Rocket Man??

North Korea's regime is the war monger. they started the Korean war. They have continued to engage in acts of war. we've been such beta cucks that we've allowed them to get away with it. The North Korean regime are vermin, they should be forced to give up power now or face extermination (the regime not the people). The sooner we start this war the better.

I can't believe even Trump would try that. After just slashing government revenue, he can't afford a costly war, not any more than a moon landing....

[ThirdTerm]

“We are not committed to a peaceful [resolution], we a committed to a resolution [in general]. We want the resolution to be peaceful, but as [US] President [Donald Trump] said, you know all options are on the table, and we have to be prepared if necessary to compel the denuclearization of North Korea without the cooperation of that regime,” he added.

I think this strong stance which does not rule out the military option is necessary to deal with these countries which sponsor terrorism. If the Trump administration commits only to a peaceful resolution like the previous administration, America will become vulnerable to North Korean intimidation and it will be forced to accept terms offered by the rogue state. The situation is similar to walking casually through the city center in Perth, Western Australia, where you could be physically threatened, and you need to be ready to strike back.

[LehmanB]

Well he is unpredictable, but I doubt there will be a serious strike. Perhaps minor for the most. China and Putin will not allow that- this was Obama's mistake when trying to defeat Assad- he forgot who stands behind him.

No , it was actually the United States and South Korea that was responsible for the Korean War .

America should make a good faith effort to reach a diplomatic solution .

I find it to be especially unfortunate that this is taking place during the Christmas holiday season .

Also , I personally blame then President George W. Bush , and also to an extent Reagan , for creating the lead up to the second phase of the Korean War . < http://occupydemocrats.com/2016/01/07/fact-reagan-the-bushes-are-to-blame-for-north-koreas-nuclear-program-not-obama/ , http://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/why-president-bushs-north-korea-failure-is-important-to-remember , http://mahablog.com/oldsite/id34.html > , rather than Obama or Clinton http://www.politicususa.com/2016/01/07/reasons-obama-blame-north-koreas-hydrogen-bomb.html .

I am not so sure we ought to be dismissing this mess. I can clearly see a possibility of war. And if NK believes it cannot strike the US with certainty I believe they may choose to strike US allies in the region. SK and Japan should be very worried.

The kind of attack that could prevent NK from using a nuke probably involves the use of nukes. As robust as our conventional weapons are I think it might take nukes to ensure any certainty of destroying NK's nukes. China will certainly not like that even a little.

Putin will like it a lot. Everyone who thinks that what Putin likes does not matter, raise your hand. Seeing no hands we can move on.

These are seriously dangerous times.

A so-called 'bloody nose' strike on North Korea could automatically trigger a conventional artillery bombardment of Seoul.

[Drlee]

A so-called 'bloody nose' strike on North Korea could automatically trigger a conventional artillery bombardment of Seoul.

Yes. That is why the first strike use of nukes is necessary. To suppress the NK conventional artillery within range of Seoul nukes would be just the ticket.

[Crantag]

Is that what Eisenhower would do in this situation here?

[Drlee]

I don't know what Eisenhower would do. I am not a huge fan of generals as presidents and believe that high ranking military people should not seek office under any circumstances. They are far to rule driven and distant from the rank and file American citizen.

I am more inclined to favor the measured coalition building of Nixon. IMO this could have been avoided early on but everyone from Reagan onward punted, making this far more serious.

I also fault China for some of this. They could have and should have stopped this long ago.

[skinster]

DPRK doesn't have a first-strike policy.

Savage Americans who love war but won't partake in it, please play video games instead.

To be fair to Dr Lee he aint no chickenhawk, he did participate. He went to Vietnam to try and reimpose white rule on Indochina with the US army after the French failed, luckily Ho Chi Minh had something to say about it.

[skinster]

Yeah, fighting peasants must've been tough for him.
