US considering shooting down North Korean Missiles - Part 3 - Trump Era
Lets Get Real:
This is what the US should have done when North Korea started its missile launches, either take them out on the ground or in the air, and make it clear to North Korea than any reaction by them would be considered an attack on the US and thus to back off. The North Koreans are pushing to be a nuclear armed power, Iran is not far behind, would not be shocked to learn that North Koreans have been helping Tehran will their missile and nuclear structure, the idea that IRAN is following its deal with the UN is very naive. North Korea made deals in the past and then broke them, Iran and North Korea only understand one thing, a big stick and a President who will use it, the President is the leader of the free World, while North Korea and Iran represent terrorists and rogue nations.
Trump on Iran at the UN - Trump Era
Telegraph - Live Reporting: Reports what President Trump said about Iran at the UN, " In a speech seen by analysts as a return to George W. Bush’s “Axis of Evil” world view – only with Iraq removed from the list drawn up in 2002 – Mr Trump also spoke out against Iran, describing the country as an "economically depleted rogue state" whose chief export is violence. "
Lets Get Real:
Bush 43 took care of Iraq on the whole, Obama pulled out too early, it took the election of Trump for the handcuffs to come off the US military, and thus the success of the Iraqi forces in Iraq with the help of the US to remove Daesh as a threat. Thus we know come to North Korea and Iran, the tensions in Asia are high, the speech by Trump on NK could risk NK taking the next step in escalation, while Iran might break the deal before Trump gets to act. One only hopes that China can control North Korea and makes sure they do not react, while Iran can be expected to increase its terrorist support, helping the Taliban in Afghanistan as way to thwart the US new strategy, of staying the course and winning.
Liberal/Left Wing reaction to President Trump's speech - Trump Era
Guardian: Reports the following on the reaction at the UN to the speech by President Trump, " The speech was greeted in the UN chamber mostly with silence and occasional outbreaks of disapproving murmurs, as Trump castigated a succession of hostile regimes. "
Lets Get Real:
The liberal/left with castgate Trump for his speech, think of the 1930s and the age of appeasing Hitler, and you get the idea, the left only know how to appease, if the World has listened to this lot the Berlin Wall would have not come down, they never want to fight for something, God forbid you support your Democratic elected PM or President. Listening to CNN this afternoon one almost got the impression they almost prefered North Korea or Iran to their own US President. It will be interesting to see what happens should things get very hot in Asia, will CNN blame both sides, or just Trump. This blogger misses Fox News, they were fair and balanced, the CNN and BBC News of 24 news cycle are so predictable, it's not even funny any more.
Trump on North Korea - Part 2 - Trump Era
Daily Mail: Reports " 'Rocket Man is on a suicide mission': Trump tells United Nations he will 'totally destroy' Kim Jong-Un if he threatens America "
Lets Get Real:
The US Military should be on ALERT for the North Koreans to react to the UN speech by President Trump, as stated it can be either or both a nuclear test and a missile launch over Japan. The US military has to decide if it will take out the missile while they are on the ground, this could lead to escalation by North Korea, but even they are not crazy enough to attack South Korea, as this would give Trump the reason to destroy North Korea. China and Russia have to place pressure on North Korea not to react, of course there is a question of how much influence they have with the North Korean Regime. Thus expect Asia to get hot over the next few days, this blog thinks there will be sabre rattling by NK but no action, Trump looks ready to press the button when it comes to NK, he is not kidding about the fact that he will destroy North Korea.
President Trump on North Korea and Iran - Trump Era
BBC News: Reports " US President Donald Trump has told the UN General Assembly that America would destroy North Korea if forced to defend itself or its allies....He called on the government in Tehran to cease supporting terrorism and again criticised the Obama-era deal over Iran's nuclear programme, which he called an embarrassment. "
Lets Get Real:
North Korea will react to this speech, either another nuclear test or missile launch over Japan in the direction of Guam to make the point. As to Tehran the hard liners will argue that Trump is never going to honour the deal and thus Iran should follow through with its nuclear plans, of course this blog assumes they have done that already and that the Iran deal is a way to get attention away from them. If Trump does does decide that the Iran deal is BAD, then he should be ready to place the US Fleet in the Persian Gulf, once the deal is dead in the water, the US should hit all the nuclear sites in Iran, just as a warning, if IRAN reacts then the US can take out the regime and place a new leadership in Iran. The UN speech by President Trump was tough, he thanked Russia and China over their help with North Korea, but they need to do more or Trump will take action. The left wing press will have a nervous breakdown, they always do when it comes to Trump.
