North Korea threatens to cancel Trump-Kim summit over South Korea-US military drills

Let’s get together and send Shep off the air.
Or, tell Fox we are getting THEM off our TV (and streaming and smartphones and all that). Who likes that p.o.s. anyway besides his boyfriend.
A chilling thought——
1) accident collapsed the Nork nuke testing caves.
2) China called in lil kim and told him: no choice, you stop testing because radioactivity has seeped into China. The End.
3)Kim looked like he was graciously suing for peace and we rejoiced at how good Trump was.
4) Kim turns bold and oppositional again and the leftist media goes wild with ecstacy that Trump is a failure.
Im sure the Chinese will talk to chubsey ubsey again.
Its obvious that HE WAS WARNED!
Count on it.
Because they'd been through many preliminaries and scheduled a meeting with the possibility of ending a dangerous standoff that has been around since the 1950s. It is pointless to continue joint US/SK military maneuvers two or three weeks before an historic meeting and opporunity.
There comes a times to stop chest beating and muscle flexing. If the negotiations fail, there is all of the future to go back to the old ways in Korea.
Saber rattling.
Fake News, just regular diplomacy Kabuki.
It’s happening...

The breaker bars are in high orbit. Project Thor. Rods from God. One demolished a mountain. Think about what a half dozen could do. 40 feet by one foot of ceramic coated tungsten hitting at 44,000 fps. That is faster than radar can image it. No one knows we did it, well except the Chinese and Russians. If you shoot you know that is some major damage as in nuke level. It is asteroid level damage. It is a head to the hills kinda thing if you have any idea it is coming.
I doubt it..Kim just gets his pants in a knot easily...however the meeting will happen between he and Trump I understand now. As usual the media jumps too fast or purposely creates havoc and runs with it.
Expected opening is July 2018...I suspect they will be using it for Dignitaries, Businessmen etc.. once N.Korea opens and the Corporations begin to roll in.
We are but one angry late night tweet away from this whole thing imploding.
Trump will lose face, get screwed and be embarrassed after all the raised expectations. And you do not do this in the public arena to Donald J. Trump.
Yep. Twitter storm clouds on the horizon.
It will be contrary to what his foreign policy and national security staff will urge.
(But it wont necessarily be a bad thing)
The military maneuvers should be doubled in size and duration. Increase the pressure on the crazy commie.
Concur
Kim Gye-Gwan officialized the threat just about two hours ago, in a dispatch from Pyongyang. FReepers who have followed NK issues for years in an intelligent manner here in the forum will be rather familiar with this name.
Jockying for position, and trying to save the almighty Face that’s so important in Asian cultures.
They were suppose to have been in March, after the Olympics.
Could be, or he is destroying evidence. I still think we hit that nuke testing site and he has to destroy it or Trump won’t get the Nobel.
Is this plan B:
A North Korean delegation has visited Beijing to learn about China’s experience in economic reform and opening up, the foreign ministry said Tuesday (May 15), the latest diplomatic outreach by the isolated regime.
The delegation came to “learn about the achievements of China’s domestic economic development and reform and opening-up process, and promote an exchange of experience between the two parties on governance issues,” Lu said.
Analysts have said Kim’s promise last month to build “socialist economic construction” could herald more Chinese-style economic reforms, which transformed the communist-led country into the world’s second largest economy.

While this is plan A:

This time Xi is strong-arming Kim into doing things the Chinese way. I think Kim Jong-un still counts on S. Korean gov to revive economic investment in N. Korea. However, since U.S. leans hard on SK, it is not a sure thing. Even more so, if Kim is going to rebuff U.S. proposal and push for drastically scaled-down denuclearization.
I think Kim still hopes that SK can deliver enough goods to him so that he does not have to entirely rely on China.
I think Plan A was that N. Korea become an independent free agent neither tied to China nor to U.S., with his nuclear arsenal ready. Play off one against the other, and get money from everybody. In the meantime, steadily advancing his project of defacto takeover of S. Korea. A kind of grand dream but China stomped on it hard.
