Donald Trump has 'revealed WAR plans with North Korea' – claims top US official

A TOP US official has sent a chilling warning to Kim Jong-un after claiming Donald Trump told him of his battle plans.

By Anders Anglesey / Published 2nd August 2017

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said war between Washington and Pyongyang was “inevitable” if the North continued to test missiles.

The senator added: “There is a military option to destroy North Korea’s nuclear programme and North Korea itself.

“President Trump is not going to allow Kim Jong-un the ability to have a missile that could hit America.

“If there’s going to be a way to stop him, it will be over there. If thousands die, they’re going to die over there.

“They’re not going to die over here – that’s what the President told me to my face."

Donald Trump has threatened to use military force against Kim Jong-un since the North fired two ICBMs capable of striking several US states in the last month.

you are right..kind of jumped the gun and assumed it was another annoying leak

[ClearCase_guy]

I’m pretty sure we have a plan to invade Canada. We’re pretty thorough about these things.

It's worth repeating...Trump AND Gen Mattis are professionals not man-children like the prior administration. They don't signal their intent before taking action.

Before the Trump Administration makes ANY move, they have a plan that is 3-4 steps ahead of the competition, be it CNN or Hillary or North Korea.

So, for a moment, imagine the NK Leader eating with his generals. One of them drops dead. A few moments later, another one drops dead. Rinse and repeat over a week. Then, Kim Jong-un wakes from a bad night's sleep to this...

This is almost no different from the military head games Reagan ran around the Soviets in the early 1980s. It was brutally effective, without a shot being fired.

"Sometimes we would send bombers over the North Pole and their radars would click on," recalls Gen. Jack Chain, [a] former Strategic Air Command commander. "Other times fighter-bombers would probe their Asian or European periphery." During peak times, the operation would include several maneuvers in a week. They would come at irregular intervals to make the effect all the more unsettling. Then, as quickly as the unannounced flights began, they would stop, only to begin again a few weeks later.

Yea, if we go psyops, we will still get rhetoric from NK and his people remain under tyranny. However, there will be NO more missile tests (he can take a hint, and I suspect news of how that new guy in DC operates will reach China pretty fast) and NK is now neutralized.

Hilarious to see Democrats talking tough about the Chicoms. Trump has destroyed them.

[txhurl]

999,999 is still ‘thousands’, fatboi.

[realcleanguy]

So, a Democrat holdover is leaking the US plans for a war with North Korea, so North Korea can win. This is the logic of the Democrats: “Destroy the USA at all costs while Trump is president”

[MayflowerMadam]

This POTUS doesn’t give a heads-up on what his plans are. Fake news?

[MountainDad]

Good!

My Dad fought the Norks and Chicoms for a long time in the 50’s.

DJT can turn NK into a sandbox for all I care....

There are war plans in the Pentagon to invade almost every country on the planet. Most stay on the shelf but a lot get updated constantly. The invasion plans for the DPRK has no dust on it.

[Bob]

There ALWAYS is a war game plan. It’s part of readiness.

I'd be shocked if there weren't one. There are almost certainly plans in place for the most unimaginable (to most people) contingencies. The last thing you want is to be "playing it by ear" in a time of crisis.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Military getting ready...it’s what they do...IF THEY’RE ALLOWED TO!

[wiseprince]

So sanction every country. Sounds like a hell of a strategy. The only thing that is going to happen now is the world will coalesce against the U.S....Trump was 100% right to work with Russia and splitting them with China. Russia now has no way not to work with China because that is the option Congress has given them...it would have been much easier to make China bend if you could have been working closely with Russia... Sanctioning everyone is the dumbest idea possible. Trump should never sign this garbage

It’s a good guess that Trump will elect surgical strikes at NK ICBM and Nuke production, deployment, research facilities. It could setback the Norks years before they could recover.

One doesn't need to be Nostradamus to predict that. But wouldn't surgical strikes leave the Norks with the capacity to retaliate? And unlike Syria, they have the means, and retaliate they would. So it would have to be much more than a surgical strike to prevent a devastating counter (or at least blunt) a strike against S, Korea and our forces there.

[Lee25]

It’s long overdue

[Rusty0604]

I don’t think the actual battle plan is leaked. Just w warning that there is a plan, which I don’t think is a leak.

[luvbach1]

Great so now North Korea knows that Trump is gonna go after them.

That could be significant. Kim may have thought he could wait out Trump and in the end he wuld back down ala Obama. Now he knows he'll have to prepare for war.

FREEPATHON UPDATE


We are 32 days into this FReepathon. We have raised 32% of our goal.


You do the math.


COME ON FREEPERS, LET'S GET BEHIND FR AND GET THIS DONE!!!

[Lee25]

No we do not. Liberals at Seoul put their comfortable lives in what they call peace above safety and security of United States. No like Trump said if there have to be thousands to die, they die in Korea peninsula, not here

[Musketeer]

There are generals who spend years practicing war in specific theaters globally. Norman Schwarzkopf practised the Gulf War years before it actually occurred. His plan was perfect. Bush stopped him before getting the prize. I can not possibly imagine his disappointment.

That was my awakening moment to the existence of the deep swamp.

[Sasparilla]

I have a retired friend who was a war planner and was making frequent trips to Korea at least 20 years ago till retirement.
