It was vewy vewy quiet and waiting for him to become more destructive was not an option.

So we are doing this to incite him. No doubt in my mind.

But if Trump promises that there will be consequences, he is labeled an inciter....

“CNN quoting the big NorK propaganda newspaper.
Just a lot of hot air.”......

Makes no difference which one you read, just printed out in a different language. The American version of the “Communist News Network” at work coming to you from both sides.

I’m getting sick and tired of fatboy Kim and his childish threats; to the point that I wish he’d launch a missle at us (hope he aims it at San Francisco).
Then we could loose the dogs of war at the fatboy.
