The
Korean missile crisis has never been hotter. Trump is turning the
screws on everyone to force action. China, Japan, and South Korea join
in threatening Kim Jong-un with imminent war, but North Korea’s crackpot
despot isn’t backing down.
Trump has dispatched war ships, including the USS Carl Vinson,
to North Korea as North Korea continues to show signs that it is
preparing to do another nuclear test on Saturday (known as ‘Day of the
Sun,’ which celebrates the birth of the present dictator’s grandfather,
who was North Korea’s founding president). Voice of America has reported
that North Korea “has apparently placed a nuclear device in a tunnel,
and it could be detonated Saturday AM Korea time.”
By
that time (Friday in the US), I suppose, those American ships will all
be in place to do whatever it is they’re going there to do — maybe blow
up the facilities around the test site. ...
A US pre-emptive strike is said to be on the table….
