North Korea Travel Warning

according to the author, North Korea: there is only one acceptable endgame KJU just wanted acceptance, love and understanding.

 

Damn, will have to cancel the annual family holiday to Pyongyang this year

 

Yes....read the title

 

Things are looking a tad scary, time for the bunker

Trump touts US nuclear arsenal amid standoff with North Korea - CNNPolitics

 

OK, So seems on one is too concerned???

 

I think if i lived in S Korea or Japan yeah Id be worried. But perhaps they are used to it. There has chest beating for years.
If Australia gets bombed by it would surely be the end of the world because they have ran out of more important targets in Japan or USA.

 

It was also no good waaaay before Trump...stop blaming him; this all fell in his lap from decades past; kicked down the road by the last 3 Presidents..

Look up; Otto Warmbier.....happened before Trump....disgraceful event.

It was Trump's team that eventually got him home....

There are a million more places I would go before ever considering NoKO.

 

Many of the street interviews with the locals are with soldiers standing very close by apparently (but out of the shot)...lots of good stuff said about their Leader and Country as you'de expect

 

Is that husband's or husbands'?

 

Getting sick of hearing about North Korea and maybe it's an opportunity to finally get rid of the fat guy who in my view can become a great ambassador for Dunkin doughnut and obesity.

 

2 irrational d!cks saying "I'm gonna show you how is strongest" potentially endangering millions and threatening nuclear war.
They are both completely irresponsible, it is a bit frightening.
North Korea has had an inflammatory rhetoric for years that is nothing new, but Trump's lack of tact is just creating more tensions and greater risks of a miscalculation that could escalate.

 

NoKo might have had the inflammatory rhetoric for a long time, but now that they have the capability to;
a) Reach the USA
b) Can arm the I.C.B.M's with a nuclear warhead
C) Have threatened to fire one at Guam...
the game has changed.

Plus; there has been 20 years of sanctions, diplomacy attempts, "strategic patience" Bill Clinton gave them $5b because they promised to dismantle their nuclear program....none has worked and they even escalated the program as we now all know.

Noone has talked tough to this bloke either; so what would you have Trump do?

Rinse and repeat the last 20 years?

Trump's number one responsibility is to protect his Citizens; so tough talk is just one strategy to hopefully get Un to change his mind; but if he does fire a rocket; the USA will knock it out of the sky, and then it'll be the end of NoKo.

 

BTW I have quite a few properties in US ... on a serious note though scary stuff.

NoKo has not worked. I was hoping China would cut North Korea off at the knees but not the case.

 

The news from a few of the experts today is that the pressure needs to be continually applied to China to head off KJU....the UN vote including them is a hopeful sign, but it remains to be seen if they actually follow through with any support; they have doubled-crossed the US already in this regard and done ZIP to curb NoKo.

The other discussion was that the USA would move all their positions and options in readiness to show a strong sign that they mean business to make a strike; and the hope is that this will also show the Chinese's that they are serious (unlike previous Administrations) and thus pressure KJU that way.

 

I always considered UN a toothless tiger really

 

The UN were supposed to be inspecting and monitoring the NoKo situation as per the deal that Bill Clinton made.....

Guess they must have been too busy slagging off Israel and sucking up Palestine's derriere all those years to find the time?

What sort of deal was it that allowed NoKo to still keep their nuclear rods even after the $5b was handed over?

Did they seriously think the NoKo's were gunna dismantle their stuff?

I feel sorry for Trump; he's inherited this disaster....he told them (the White House) back in 1999 on National TV to step in before it was too late.

 

I watched this, interesting, and now look where we are....

I am still not certain whether Trump is on the right track, I just don't know what other options are available, other than the China route.

 

"The UN were supposed to be inspecting and monitoring the NoKo situation as per the deal that Bill Clinton made....."
Yes, that was the agreement... but the access to actually inspect/monitor is *completely* up to the DPRK to allow. It's not a failing of the UN if they don't "find" sites or technology to which they are not allowed access to inspect.

Again.... whatever the deal was, it's still completely up to the DPRK to allow it to be carried out. On their soil and all that....

Um, no, absolutely not. But they have to keep trying.

Hmmmmm so "stepping in' in 1999 would have just magically fixed everything. So what exactly would "stepping in" have looked like...?

 

Do we really need a travel warning to stay away from that insane dump.
