PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — North Korea announced that it has test-fired a new type of tactical guided weapon. The Korean Central News Agency says Chairman Kim Jong Un observed the firing of the weapon Wednesday by the Academy of Defense Science. The agency reports that Kim said "the development of the weapon system serves as an event of very weighty significance in increasing the combat power of the People's Army." The agency says Kim mounted an observation post to learn about the test-fire of the new-type tactical guided weapon and guide the test-fire. The announcement came after reports of new activity at a North Korean missile research center and long-range rocket site...

I see your point but no other president has made more progress in resolving the issue. Bolton is part of the team.

I definitely see your point about Bolton but in this case we need a hard ass.

That’s some of the most astute analysis I’ve seen since John Kerry last opened his yap.

I’m just amazed at how intuitive you are.

Do you do this for a living, or are you just gracing us with your incredible insights for free?

Kim will sit back and watch what happens.

Wow. I don’t think any of us could have come up with that. Just incredible. Thanks.

Trump may choose to ignore. Once again, I’m just astounded at how you see things none of the rest of us see.

Trump could continue to cajole, flatter, and appease. Appease? Can you tell me how Trump has acquiesced to the belligerent demands of Kim? By all means, tell us what undue concessions to satisfy the demands of Kim concerning territory, or gifts Trump has provided. Is English your second language, or are you just trying to imply that Trump has acted the part of a novice negotiator, and is flailing at trying to turn Kim into a more reasoned leader?

Ignorance is your strong suit. As far as I can tell, you know less than most people on the forum when it comes to tactics used to move people in our direction.

Trump is going to feel embarrassed? Explain that one. Why should he or would he feel embarrassed? That’s just a nutty notion.

Trump has extended a promise of helping Kim turn his nation around. It was a great tactic to use instead of just threatening him and moving toward military action with no other option once that was done.

You are so wrapped up in insulting and trashing Trump, that you can’t see straight.

Are you just another imbecilic member of the State Department staff, a group of people who haven’t gotten a thing right in the last 60 year or so?

That’s sure what you come off like.

All you do is toss insults from the cheap seats.

Not once have you explained what you would do that would be better than what Trump has been trying.

That’s because there isn’t anything else you can do other than try to reach out peacefully, and then if that doesn’t work, you have to elevate the process.

Just keep chiming in to make a fool of yourself, as you seek to cast Trump as a Neville Chamberlain type character, exclaiming “Peace in Our Time”, which Trump as absolutely no intention of doing.

Kim will have to take tangible actions to destroy his nuclear and missile programs, or Trump will back away and take military action.

You are a fool.

Bolton...we need his hard ass

President Trump's style of negotiating was on the trajectory we voted for UNTIL John Bolton joined the administration. ISIS was defeated, though I disagree with President Trump not siding with Assad and for working with "friendly rebels" (ie: terrorists at night). World leaders were visiting the WH on a regular basis. President Trump, though not being objective about the misdeeds of Israel and Saudi Arabia, was listening to the other side.

Now it's all about sanctions and threats and choosing sides instead of making alliances that are beneficial to both sides. And vetoing the bill to stop supporting Saudi Arabia in Yemen? The dems are being very quiet about that. I wish they'd be vocal, instead of holding it as a campaign issue.

“It’s a strategic strategy, just like Russia-Iran. Use a proxy to attack the early warning and C&C complexes of your enemy. Then after your proxy is destroyed in the retaliatory strike exercise the mutual defense treaty to launch a full scale strike on your enemy.”

A ludicrous contention in case of China.

China has but 300 nukes, total.

We have over 6,000.

Think the Iran sanctions are hard, the Syrian-Iranian-N.Korean proxies of Russia are going to find it rough going shortly.

Who knows how this will shake out?

You certainly have no clue here. Of course given your endless anti-Trump BS rants you've made that inordinately clear.

I’m not afraid or worried. DJT has got this under control. You have to give the dog enough leash to hang himself.

Not interested in what the MSM will do with this report.
And I don’t give a Fuck.
We have a Commander-In-Chief that plays the Long Game, and not the “my panties are in a wad” media game.

"The Associated Press could not independently verify North Korea's claim, and it wasn't immediately clear what had been tested"

There are other reports of North Korea saying they tested a tactical weapons, except no one can confirm what was tested. A antitank missile or short range air to air missile are tactical weapons in absolute terms. Did the DPRK test anything at all or is this more of their usual propaganda?

They won’t do that. The ones they wear now unzip from the inside and with 2 chopsticks turn into a commie pup tent.

A sombrero would be like the Mess Hall except they have no food to go with it.
