OSAN AIR BASE, South Korea — As North Korea vowed “merciless retaliation” against U.S.-South Korean military drills that it claims are an invasion rehearsal, senior U.S. military commanders on Tuesday dismissed calls to pause or downsize exercises they called crucial to countering a clear threat from Pyongyang.originally posted on 8/17
Is this the opening stage of the war propaganda...is this comment
Worldwide, is there any abnormal
movement of the USA's military. Anything abnormal going or secret alerts.
aimed at NKorea? Is the USA attempting to force a coup by
the NKorean generals just before the war begins or upon the first few days of
the war just based on how crazy he is???
What the hell, everyone is on station in preparation of the
war.
U.S.-South Korea war games start
Monday as Pyongyang warns of ‘catastrophe’

WASHINGTON
Are tensions cooling in the Korean
Peninsula? The United States and South Korea will find out Monday, when the two
allies are scheduled to start joint military exercises that are known to anger
North Korea, sometimes triggering a show of force.
This year’s war games come at a
particularly delicate moment. There have been exchanges of war rhetoric between
President Trump and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un. Trump’s chief strategist, Steve
Bannon, has further complicated the situation, by stating
in an interview there’s “no military option” in North Korea while floating
a possible deal with Pyongyang that would leave Seoul hanging.
Amid all this back and forth, the
U.S. and South Korean military will simulate warfare with North Korea from Aug.
21 to 31, well aware that North Korea could respond with another missile test.
“Over the course of the next two weeks I expect tensions to escalate,” said
Scott A. Snyder, a Korea specialist with the Council on Foreign Relations who
previously was the Asia Foundation's representative in Seoul. “This is always a
sensitive issue, but it is more hair-trigger as the North Koreans are very
sensitive to the like additional nuclear-capable aircraft flyovers.”
...Honestly, if we crushed Nkorea in a quick and ruthless
war, will it send a message to terrorist throughout the world.
Old General Pershing's supposed threat
In the wake of Thursday's deadly attack in Barcelona, Spain, President Donald Trump tweeted that General Pershing—referencing Army General John "Black Jack" Pershing—had the right idea when dealing with terrorists."Study what General Pershing of the United States did to terrorists when caught. There was no more Radical Islamic Terror for 35 years!" Trump tweeted.While it was not 100 percent clear exactly what the president is referring to in the post, he has talked about Pershing ridding an area of terrorists in the past. And the claims he made about Pershing's tactics were widely debunked as false."They were having terrorism problems, just like we do," Trump said. "And he caught 50 terrorists who did tremendous damage and killed many people. And he took the 50 terrorists, and he took 50 men and he dipped 50 bullets in pigs' blood—you heard that, right? He took 50 bullets, and he dipped them in pigs' blood. And he had his men load his rifles, and he lined up the 50 people, and they shot 49 of those people. And the 50th person, he said, 'You go back to your people, and you tell them what happened.' And for 25 years, there wasn't a problem. Okay? Twenty-five years, there wasn't a problem."
The Fire and Fury Threat
No doubt NKorea thinks Trump has been weakened. They are betting recent events
will prevent him from carrying out his threat. I think the he can't back down
from hitting something big in North Korea to save his reputation. A war is
baked in the cake?

Story highlights
US intelligence analysts assess
North Korea has produced a miniaturized nuclear warhead, according to multiple
sources
It is not believed that the
capability has been tested
Washington (CNN)President Donald
Trump issued an extraordinary ultimatum to North Korea on Tuesday warning
Pyongyang not to make any more threats against the United States or they will
"face fire and fury like the world has never seen," during a photo op
at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
"North Korea best not make any
more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the
world has never seen... he has been very threatening beyond a normal state.
They will be met with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this
world has never seen before," he said.
Trump, Kim ramp up rhetoric
Trump's harsh words come as US
intelligence analysts have assessed that North Korea has produced a
miniaturized nuclear warhead, according to multiple sources familiar with the
analysis of North Korea's missile and nuclear program.
Soon after Trump's comments, North
Korea issued a statement saying it was "examining the operational
plan" to strike areas around the US
territory of Guam in the Pacific, including the Andersen Air Force base.
The Newest and Boldest North Korean Threat Yet To The USA. I think Kim wants a war.
I thought President Trump said, if NKorea makes one more threat to the USA, we
would obliterate them?
Posters show North Korean missiles
falling on Washington DC and the U.S.
Propaganda posters claim U.S. is
'within range' of Pyongyang's missiles
Illustrations proclaim that bombing
the U.S. would be North Korea's 'answer'
This follows escalation in
animosity between the two countries
NK has claimed it might send
missiles into waters near US territory of Guam

North Korea's latest propaganda
posters shows the country bombing the United States as their 'answer' to the
latest UN sanctions against the country.
The illustrations sees Pyongyang
warheads destroying the Capitol Building in Washington DC, and dozens of bombs
falling over a burning map of the U.S.
Proclaiming that the 'entire region
of the state [U.S.] is now within range of our missiles!', the posters is the
latest escalation in threats of nuclear war by North Korea.
Another
line is the sand by the USA? We are boxing in NKorea.
Navy Times: Speaking at the State Department following a
meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Japanese Foreign Minister
Taro Kono and Japanese Defense Minister Itsunori Onodera, Mattis also said that
any North Korean launch toward territory controlled by the U.S., South Korea or
Japan would result in “immediate, specific actions to take it down.”
