WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon says a Navy carrier strike group is moving toward the western Pacific Ocean to provide a physical presence near the Korean Peninsula. North Korea's recent ballistic missile tests and continued pursuit of a nuclear program have raised tensions in the region, where U.S. Navy ships are a common presence and serve in part as a show of force. On Saturday, President Donald Trump and South Korea's leader, Acting President Hwang Kyo-Ahn, spoke by phone. The White House said the two agreed to stay in close contact about North Korea and other issues. The U.S. Pacific Command directed the carrier group to sail north to the western Pacific after departing Singapore on Saturday, according to a Navy news release. The carrier group includes the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson, with support from several missile destroyers and missile cruisers. Deployed from San Diego to the western Pacific since Jan. 5, the strike group has participated in numerous exercises with the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force and Republic of Korea Navy, various maritime security initiatives, and routine patrol operations in the South China Sea. http://bigstory.ap.org/article/3878...low&utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=AP_Politics
There is only one person in North Korea that we should drop a bomb on. He would not be hard to find. Our satellites should be able to see him, especially the ones with thermal capabilities. He is the only fat person in North Korea.
One tiny Tomahawk, hey Rodman! That's the guy I was thinking of and could not come up with the name. Time to send in Rodman dressed as a Tomahawk. Take one for the team and hold down collateral damage. Just get his buddy.
If Rodman took care of fat boy, the North Koreans would be so grateful they would make Dennis their king.
I wonder if that thought goes through Fat Boy's mind in the wee hours of the morning, understanding a Carrier Task Force is headed his way? Three quarters of his side kicks maybe more that willing to step aside and reduce the collateral damage, hoping he is the only loss.
You think China will allow us to attack North Korea? That's what makes Kim Jong Un-hole so confident. He all his shit because he knows China will back him up. Not because they like him, but because they don't want to open up the pennisula and have a back door for the US to use to attack them.
North Korea is a creepy fucking place. Documentaries of journalists who slipped in there, it's insane how they live and what they are told and believe. Such a poor country too, can't even feed its own people
Sound advice sir! No Americans even close to the Yalu river. Perhaps we should give it a bit more time for the fellows on the other side of the Yalu to come to grip with what is on their border south of the Yalu. Russia created the place essential all on their own 72 years ago. The Japanese reached out to them when they thought it time to surrender. The Russians took the reach as a sign to attack, which they did in Manchuria and Korea, but leaving the US uninformed of the Japanese intention. I think the US dropped one more bomb after this game by Russia. Then 5 years later, the Chinese crossed the Yalu after some unfortunate ravings by perhaps one of the most bellicose Generals in US history. He felt it was his time in history to cross the Yalu. It turned out to be more like it's time for the shit to hit the fan. I should think neither of these neighbors of North Korea would like to see 20 million refugees crossing the Yalu, seeking survival where ever they can find it. They should understand the likely hood of this very undesirable event if the US is force to insure that a fat kid with real toys that can reach the US territory, can not be allowed to even consider playing the game. I think we actually do have the men working for us that can deliver the message with conviction and moral clarity. If they fail, I am sure we can take out the fat boy and his toys before he can play, but the refugees will indeed follow. About 20 million of them I should think, would survive the rain of destruction we would be force to begin. No way would I wait, hoping for the best from Fat boy. I don't think we would need to use nuclear weapon to take out theirs, but I also doubt we can take out their missiles after they launch either. So it must be before, voluntarily or not.
If there was ever a country ready to dump it's leader it's N Korea...a little nudge wouldn't hurt but I think it should come from S Korea...not us.
I would assume they have people already in place in Kim Jung Ill's circle....he's like Castro...a dodgeball master so far...if we can take out Osama Bin Laden next to the military complex in Pakistan...this should be doable. I'd just rather see it coordinated from S. Korea with backing from countries like Japan, China and Russia...it's their neighborhood
Oh, I agree with you! Trouble is, when it is time to play with a missile, Fat Boy isn't going to squander the event on one of them. The west coast or broke.
