DONALD Trump has held a meeting on the growing North Korea crisis in the White House's famous "situation room" along with the US Generals, reports say.
Trump is reported to have held a briefing on North Korea at the White House along with US National Security Council.
The situation room often hosts "war councils" during times of conflict, and was famously where Barack Obama monitored the mission to kill Osama bin Laden.
Tensions between the US and North Korea have been worsening as Kim refuses to give up his quest for nuclear capable ICBMs.
Yesterday, General James Mattis warned the US Army to "stand ready" for war with North Korea – and he was in today's major meeting.

“What difference does it make?”
It’s integral.
My father arrived in Pusan on August 3, 1950 with the 1st Provisional Marine Brigade on the USS Henrico. He was attached to the 8th Army 24th, 25th Infantry division and moved to Masan and Miryang to run collection points for the Graves Registration Service for the Battle of the Naktong Bulge in the defence of the Pusan Perimeter. After Inchon he followed the 8th Army all the way to PyongYang North Korea and back.

Rattle the Nork’s cage?
Yep.....just sending more signals to Fat Boy nobody is backing down on this end and no matter what he blasts off next they’re ready for him.
Watch FatBoy now announce his war room had a Military meeting with his officers....
Man, what he must have seen.
I think we have people already inside N.Korea and they know exactly what’s what when and where.
Let’s look at the situation.. The options are limited. There is too much to lose in another war with North Korea. They have crippled three of our latest Aegis ships and have stolen our military plans from South Korea, Who do you think is winning so far.
Great! Love it!
He is negotiating, with Norkea and with China and Russia. Negotiation doesn’t always mean sitting down at a table and giving away the store as it has come to mean since, oh, Kennedy.
Of course. It is part of the process.
His demise and that of all his heirs.
Like I said, if that's what it is, great.
If that's not what it is, not great.
If the PTB didn’t want the meeting known it wouldn’t be known or it would be done in a distributed fashion.
It is either a harmful leak or it is a move in the ongoing negotiations with China.
If military action is taken, it should be decisive, taking out North Korea’s ability to produce / store / fire anything capable of hurting Americans.
Truman got the UN to send our troops. The UN inits bureaucratic way declared war.
