Perhaps. We know Obummer can’t shoot hoop, he can’t play golf either. Can he play poker? I doubt it. This may be the biggest bluff of all time and we have an inept child at the helm.
Kim and his rabid, bellicose media and "embassy evacuations" best be ignored, all the while we maintain our satellite intel, SIGINT, ELINT, HUMINT, OSINT and other forms of intelligence to watch every North Korean peninsular move, but show a stone face ourselves and publicly say very, very little.
This recent whiny State Dept. drivel via press conference of "But, but, but, North Korea, if you BEHAVE, you can become a member of the world community"!. DAMMIT THIS PLEA DOES NOT RESONATE WITH KIM JONG UN AND THEIR ENTIRE LEADERSHIP, THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT IT AND HAVE NO INTEREST IN COMING OUT OF INTERNATIONAL ISOLATION AS A HERMETICALLY SEALED HERMIT KINGDOM, SO JUST DROP THE PLEADING AND WHINING, FOGGY BOTTOM FAGGOTS DEVOID OF REAL WORLD ASIA-PACIFIC STREET SMARTS.
Mobilization is what I look for. It means the leadership is committed to war. Either they’re about to go on the offensive, or they believe they’re under threat of an imminent attack or invasion.
If Tubby announces mobilization of the reserves and orders them to report for duty, trouble’s coming.
It could well be a big bluff, and so far, he’s playing it to the hilt - better than his father did, and much more like his grandfather, Kim Il Sung, who REALLY knew how to play geopolitical poker.
This latest round could also be nothing more that North Korea’s peculiar diplomatese dialect.
When they say, “We will destroy you puppet South regime and Yankee dog lackey of the imperialist classes!” what they’re really saying is, “Dude....I haven’t eaten in a couple of days, and I’m low on fundage; could you spot me for a couple of burritos?”
