Like his predecessors, Donald J Trump is trying to figure out how to handle North Koreas provocations the country may be preparing for its sixth nuclear test and how to compel China to help constrain Pyongyangs nuclear ambitions.
On Sunday, the Pentagon deployed a strike group moving towards the western Pacific, because it is prudent to have the ships near North Korea, said national security adviser HR McMaster. In response, on Tuesday North Koreas state media threatened that they could hit the US first, adding that pre-emptive strikes are not the exclusive right of the United States.
By launching an airstrike in Syria during his recent summit with Chinas president, Xi Jinping, Trump seems to be signaling that hed be willing to unilaterally bomb North Korea like he bombed Syria. Indeed, in a Tuesday tweet, Trump warned: if China decides to help, that would be great. If not, we will solve the problem without them!
How do you solve a problem like North Korea? Like brokering an Israeli-Palestine peace deal, allaying North Koreas discontent with its security environment and the regions fear of a North Korean attack is extremely complicated. Trumps policy will reportedly focus more on pressuring Beijing to constrain North Korea, and on additional sanctions.

The Norks are a Chinese confederate colony, if not of the deep Soviet State lurking in Russia along with the collaborating US media, enough said
Need crazy? Their people believe THEY won the Korean War and America pays reparations to them periodically.
Just drop the GBU-43 bomb on Kim.

Exactly where would you target that nukestrike?
Virtually all serious DPRK military infrastructure is underground.
"Underground" -- as inside and deep beneath the "hollow mountain" at Latitude 39.078464°, Longitude 125.780545° -- with a traffic-free "highway to nowhere" running right through it -- and Soviet-style SAM installations on top...
No doubt, Little Fat Kid plans to be -- and stay -- in a very deep, luxurious, babe-equipped hidey-hole with a whole string of blast doors between his fat @$$ and the surface -- whenever he signals his toadies to "light her off"...

Who do you plan to nuke? Millions of starved slaves?
Believe me I have considered this question from many angles.
We lost our chance when we let the norks get away with keeping our USS Pueblo and its crew...
Not to mention the hideous way Norkboy terrorizes, murders, and abuses North Korea citizens, including hundreds of thousands if not millions of starving street beggars including children.
The world went after Slobodan Miloević who was charged by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia with war crimes including genocide and crimes against humanity ...
I'm seeing plenty of crimes against humanity in NoKo.
“allaying North Koreas discontent with its security environment”
You know what kind of publication the Guardian is - Leftist.
Were it not for North Korea’s aggressive military position, and history of post-truce aggression, it would have no “discontent with its security environment”, because that discontent is a problem of its own making. It has made it clear since the armistice was signed that reunification of the peninsula on its terms is all it has ever wanted, and nothing else.
I’m trying to find out where Kim lands
on the Crazy/Crazy Matrix...could be any where.
“allaying North Koreas discontent with its security environment and the regions fear of a North Korean attack is extremely complicated.”
Only for hand-wringers at the Guardian. I get the feeling Trump doesn’t find it all that complicated, nor is he interested in “allaying” the “fat little kid’s” fear.
Right.
And we have a legitimate case for Norkboy, where’s the crime tribunal?
Actually I think it’s a fair point. We tend to call evil “crazy” because it’s easier than trying to understand what makes them tick. But if you understand their premises, however screwed up, their actions often aren’t.
It’s different because Lil’ Kim is a communist and the Democrats and the Europeons LOVE communists. After all, the Clintons GAVE the guy a nuclear reactor!!!
North Korean leadership’s motivations:
* Maintain sense of siege to justify control and the police state
* Maintain fear of the outside via a sense of impending war so that few try to leave
* Threaten war constantly to maintain pride and power for the elite and prevent invasion
* Threaten war / intimidation to gain aid or money in return for peace - once you pay the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane
Would the Gaurdian like to see what it looks like when failed North Korea officials are shot to pieces with an anti-aircraft gun?
Would it spoil noon tea at the Guardian? Probably not “...pass the crumpets.”
The fat boy reminds me of Anthony in the Twilight Zone episode “It’s A Good Life”. He has absolute power. I doubt anyone EVER says No to him. He grew up (physically at least) with no connection to others as equals and was surrounded by bodyguards even when attending school in Switzerland. It would not surprise me if his father exposed him to brutal torture and executions like Saddam Hussein did to his sons. His means of executing high ranking officials who he doesn’t like makes the Joker seem like a rational, compassionate human being.
His Generals are most likely afraid of him and, like Anthony, bend over backwards to tell him how wonderful he is and practically compete with each other to give him the most praise.
