I seriously would not put it past the crazy chubby dictator. Or they could nuke/attack Japan. NK hates Japan and vice versa. Or they can continue to assist other belligerent countries to get nukes. All of these things are bad and all of them are if not likely certainly quite possible. What is needed is that someone give him the same treatment he gave his half brother.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-8200527860491589212017-04-12T08:33:31.877-04:002017-04-12T08:33:31.877-04:00i understand from a good source that the 150k troo...i understand from a good source that the 150k troops are largely medical, logistics, and support personnel much like you would send to a natural disaster. that would indicate china will let trump do the deed and they will clean up the mess so to speak. i can't say china taking north korea wouldn't bite us in the butt later. i don't think trump is thinking this thing thru.riverriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198514937704741211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-10928882245382261402017-04-12T06:26:22.401-04:002017-04-12T06:26:22.401-04:00The chubby kid likes viewing military demonstratio...The chubby kid likes viewing military demonstrations; it wouldn't surprise me if Something Went Terribly Wrong at one of them, leading to Many Days of Organized State-Supervised Mourning followed by very, very quiet Chinese assistance at overcoming the difficulties of a leadership transition. <br /><br />There's enough internal restlessness that I doubt the Chinese relish the idea of additional turmoil on their border; it would appear to be to everyone's benefit were certain problems cease to be problems in an acceptable manner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-21347253379307141442017-04-12T01:59:18.036-04:002017-04-12T01:59:18.036-04:00Bill Whittle was saying very similar things on his...Bill Whittle was saying very similar things on his members-only channel.<br /><br />If the little nutjob gets too out of hand, the Chicoms will squish him like a bug.
