If Trump is going to hit North Korea, now is the time to do it.

Otherwise everyone is bluffing.

It will be mass destruction and over in 3 days.

No one wins may save us.

You need to win a war,

you won't drop a MOAB.

Dropping a character from the Old Testament on them wouldn't do a lot of damage I reckon.

He could clean them up with his washpot, though.

So Trump is at odds with North Korea because of the testing of nukes and building an arsenal ? That said we have China , Russia , United Kingdom , France ,India , Pakistan and Israel that are all nuke ready so who is next ?

The clue to where it will go is in the Chinese response offering to ensure North Korea's security if they give up the nuclear weapons.

China doesn't want a war to occur either now that its`economy is more`dependent on international trade, So every country around NK wants the same outcome, but only China has any credibility with the North Korean regime. Encouraging China's motivation to apply pressure to NK is central to every else's strategic aim.

Absolutely, the last thing China want is for the US and it's allies to cease trading with them. They've become much smarter over the last 3-5 years and in my dealings with a small number of Chinese manufacturing facilities they have increased pricing and become far more resistant to pressure, as in they don't just do what you ask anymore. As suppliers they set the agenda more than they once did.

We've got quite a bit. We've found one of our suppliers was selling a commodity item to one of our competitors cheaper than we were buying from them. And we bought nearly 5 times as much!

It seems only USA can have weapons of mass destruction.

Only USA has used nuclear weapons in war.

An atomic bomb is a nuclear weapon mate.

Well I saw the other day that the Tiser, care of news.com.au shared a story on Facebook about how a psychic had a dream that the world will end via nuclear war. So that's definitely true.

Then I saw that Kim Dong said something he says every year.

Then I saw the US were putting more warships in Korean waters, like they do this time every year.

Then I went back to not giving a f**k.

If NK shoot one missile at anyone, they are all dead. So it's not gonna happen. It's just talk. Like every year.

The media are loving it though. They have a front page "story" every day and they don't even have to try to think up a whole new bullshit story.
