P!
-—The Diplomat has learned-—
Leak? Why did our military leak this fact?
We knew everything but we and the rest of the world sat picking lint from our belly buttons and did nothing. He’s gotten to this point because the world watched and did nothing for all these years. Just like Mueller and Comey watched terrorist cells come and grow on US soil and have ignored them. Just like Mueller ignored or did nothing when Saudi Arabia, Russia and England all warned him about the Boston Bombers. Just like Mueller ignored the dozen of reports on the Ft. Hood shooter. Just like the San Bernardino shooter was known but the feds sat around watching. Watching doesn’t do jack when lives are at stake.
I have read or seen reports that the Russians in charge of the missiles that had been moved into Cuba had the “operational” authority to launch them. Additional, the missiles were operational and were able to be launched.
Castro was screaming and pressuring the Russians to launch and had the Russians complied, America would have been nuked. It is unknowable if a world wide exchange with Russia would have ensued or if it would have been a “limited” exchange.
The point of all of this is that CASTRO would have launched if he could have. I don’t know if he had bunkers he thought he could have survived in, or had a temporary escape plan to flee Cuba until he could return. Who knows.
Bottom line, the missiles were operational and could have been launched. We were “lucky” the Russian in charge in Cuba was sane, or at least, followed the chain of command.
That is NOT the situation in N.K.!!!
N. Koreans are probably used to the fact that U.S. is watching everything. The other fact they are used to is that U.S. won't do anything nevertheless.
What you said.
Think of how much a war on the Korean peninsula would change the political landscape, both national and international.
Might this be a more elaborate "Gulf of Tonkin" scenario?
I'm not sure, but I know we'll find out soon enough.
>> partly based on North Korea’s set-up of a VIP viewing area near the launch site for Kim Jong-un and other senior regime officials
Hey, Trump, want to win a war in 30 seconds?
With Hillary as President?
Yes, we would be manipulated, and the conflict manipulated. She DID THIS already with her fake-news, post-impeachment escalation of the Yugoslavian-Muslim “war” encouraged by her ABCNNBCBS press corpse.
But Trump is not Hillary. We are not being manipulated by Trump - In fact, if anything, BECAUSE the national press corpse REFUSES to give him any credit, and BECAUSE they (in their minds) CANNOT even permit him any victory at all under ANY circumstances so minor as his wife’s “dresses” in public, the opposite is occurring.
He is being prevented from taking effective action by the press simple-minded refusal to create the atmosphere he needs to act within!
On the contrary, U.S. has avoiding this problem for a long time. This is not a war which can be managed. This is not the war military/industrial complex wants. It is not a low risk war which can go on for many years, and make them rich. Deep State would rather focus on Syria and Afghanistan. They are their kind of war. They have been playing down N. Korean problem for more than a couple of decades. It is not their kind of war. They thought they were making so much money in China that they made sure nothing interfered their rally.
Deep State may be evil, but also vain, selfish, and more stupid than you think.
Not every war originates from U.S.. You cannot avoid all international conflicts just by walking away. They will find you eventually.
well I should hope so!
All that tells me is, the wrong lives are at stake.
The next one needs to have an "accident".
And some “leaks” of this sort are actually true...
If we ever decide to take North Korea out we better do it all the way... then we can turn to the Chinese and say, “they’re dead all dead - what’s there to fight about now?”. The honor of graves? Then we’ll move on...
There have been many Peal Harbors in the grand sweep of history. They are not over with.
