US playing with insanity
The Americans thought they could push the North Koreans into a hole. They may also think that the South Koreans will join them to decimate the North Koreans. They kept provoking the North Koreans with more and bigger military exercises simulating an invasion of North Korea. The North Koreans responded in their no nonsense and standard approach. You up the ante, we will follow and see your cards. The only thing in the North Korean’s favour is a very strong conventional military backed by a few pieces of nuclear weapons. The Americans were trying to call the North Korean’s bluff. Now the North Koreans are calling the American’s bluff. They openly announced that they will strike with full force on American targets if they were forced to. The Americans are now the chicken.
The Americans can wipe out the whole of North Korea in no time. They have the most power array of nuclear weapons that the North Koreans have no reply and will simply be sitting duck. But the US cannot risk one or two North Korean nuclear bombs on the US mainland. The Americans know that the North Koreans are willing to go for broke and the risk of taking one or two nuclear hits is just incomprehensible. Better to tone down and stop raising more tension.
Flying an ICBM into space will be immediately picked up by the North Koreans and if they read that as the opening American salvo, they could just fire theirs. The Americans are not taking any chances and will not take any chances. They are delaying their test of a Minuteman III ICBM till later. Launching one now will be too risky and they could not anticipate what the North Koreans will do.
Playing with insanity, beating the drums of war can be a deadly proposition. The North Koreans have called the American bluff. The Japanese are still gearing to go, to intercept North Korean missiles. They still fail to see the devastating destruction of modern warfare with modern weapons at the disposal of the adversaries. It is not a repeat of WW2. It is not computer games. The price is too high to pay even for the US. Japan still thinks it can afford to do so, forgetting the lessons of the two Atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This time it would be hundreds of times more monstrous. It could be Tokyo and Osaka, Kyoto and Kobe.
Playing with insanity has an extremely high price to pay.
Classic American gunslinger style.
ReplyDeleteGunsliger walks into bar. He slides a gun to a fellow he wants to shoot and challenges the guy to "Pick up the gun".
ReplyDeleteUS been a bully for so long. Now, shaking with fear that the North Koreans might simply let go their arsenals and go for broke.
Who has more to lose? Who's be the greater loser?? Kim Jong Un?, the USA and their stooges Japan, South Korea who has been manipulated by the HuiSA all the time.
At the same time. the Arab World Unite and whacked aother bully the Israel. Now they also shit scared.
Iran had jumped to the defence of North Korea. China will just simply keep mum mum.
ReplyDeleteAlso forget to add:-
Hope to see the first launch by the middle of this week.
The shares, stocks, COEs, and everything goes for Cheap, cheap cheap.
Cheers

Nope. The US can wipe out North Korea without Kim-fat-boy knowing what hits him. Don't have to launch nuclear attacks with ICBMs. The B2 bombers can deliver nuclear weapons. In fact, the recent exercise involved the B2 Spirit stealth bombers.
And don't forget the nuclear missiles lurking below the water inside the submarines which are right now prowling near NK.
North Korea will be back to the stone ages before Kim-fat-boy has the time to put the caviar into his mouth or put down his wine glass.
Frankly, I don't think NK has weaponized its nuclear capability. Even if they have, I don't think they can deliver it to mainland USA. Maybe Guam or Hawaii.
I think the US is more concerned about China's response. First, China will be mightily upset with millions of NK refugees streaming across its border. Second, China is not likely to sit on its backside doing nothing when the US nukes are detonating at its backyard.
US is NOT worried. Why point your arrow to them, instead of China? As the single biggest only ally to NK, what are they doing? What's the stand on Xi Jin Ping? Is this a decoy , using a young and reckless crazy Kim to do the provocation and then sail their own ships to south china spratly islands to retake their stakes? Are they in cahoots? What is the new super power doing to deserve their new rising power that comes with responsibilities?
ReplyDeleteIs only a matter of time that the north koreans have to be freed from such evil and hunger and brainwashing system. Better earlier than later.

ReplyDeleteWhen did china or nk invade others? The king of invaders is uncle sam and he is threatening the world peace all the time. The sooner or later he spilts into two, the better for world peace.
Uncle Sam has a lot to lose and NK has nothing to lose and throwing in a powerful godfather, the winner of this war is pretty obvious.
The North and South Koreans were getting along fine and may reunite with the Sunshine Policy from the South Korean President till the US had him removed.
ReplyDeleteSituation was still normal until the US keep on provoking the North and raise the tension till what it is today. A mistake by the US could ignite the peninsula, Japan and the US. If the US had incite and inflame the temperature, the Korean peninsula could have been quite peaceful. This is call playing with fire and now may be burnt by the fire.
The US has its early warning system and missile detection system, so do the North Koreans, the Chinese and the Russians. The B52s and B2s are always under surveillance and once on a hostile path would trigger a string of reactions.
ReplyDeleteThese countries are on a state of war and signs of hostile intent will lead one thing to another. When the B52s and B2s are detected heading towards North Korea, they would be shot down for sure. They have their line of fire and no fly zone too.
Know little or near to nothing about weaponry, such that me shall not say a thing about it
ReplyDeleteWas a teenager when the US lost the War in Vietnam. Then It was in Afganistan, Pakistan, Middle East.
Why was the US in Afganistan? Well, Russia was there before and having action there serves two purposes, getting a chance to check out the Russians and best of all test out and sell military wares
In the Middle East, oil was clearly the target and sales of weaponry just as important. There is another dimension to it; Crusade against the mainly Muslim polulation there and help Israel defend against them.
What then is the purpose for the US to be in Asia, what gain and or advantage will the US benefits? A peaceful and prosperous Asia will provide the US the largest consumer market, why upset it? One reason; Asia as a whole is getting stronger in economic progress as well as in technology. The US is in danger of getting eclipsed and also decline in comprison. Got to get the Asians to fight each other to stay afloat and strong.
The US has not won a single war since the Vietnam One. It is withdrawing from Afganistan and the Middle East. It has not incur into Syria. Will it engage militarily in Korea and getting China involve with Russia waiting at the sideline?

Hi Patriot, the US has not won a single war since WW2. They whacked the North Koreans but got whacked by the peasant soldiers of PLA in the Korean War.
ReplyDeleteThey are an Empire and wanted to station military forces everywhere, particularly Japan and South Korea in case of a war with China or Russia. They would not let the two semi colonies, Japan and South Korea, out of their control by keeping bases in the two colonies. Can sell weapons too. And probably being paid to have their troops in there. In order to justify their presence, they must keep stirring the North Koreans to keep the tension at a level that Japan and South Korea cannot say no and kick them out.
Chin Leng:
DeleteThe Koreans can unite themselves liked the Germans did, peacefully. And if not, fight it out between themselves. However, all other parties should avoid meddling with the Korean internal affair or family feud. Here, the United Nation has an obligation to the Koreans as well as to the rest of the World. So far, the useless organization has failed miserably.
Anyway, if Asians fall victims to the instigations by the US, it shall be the follies of themselves and not all blames go to those lurking around.

RB, nearly forgot to buy you kopi.
ReplyDelete/// The B52s and B2s are always under surveillance and once on a hostile path would trigger a string of reactions. ///
ReplyDeleteThe B2s were already deployed in the recent exercise over the South China Sea. If the US had dropped nukes on Korea using the B2s, Kim-fat-boy would not have time to count-down to 10. Kim-fat-boy should have already pressed the button. Maybe no long-range missile? Maybe the missile didn't work? Maybe they run out of electricity to launch Armageddon?
What hostile path? A cruise missile or smart bomb can be unleased in international water without having the bomber ever intruding into enemy's airspace.
ReplyDeleteWhen you are in an air defence centre you will know what is meant by hostile path or hostile manoeuvre.
ReplyDelete/// When you are in an air defence centre you will know what is meant by hostile path or hostile manoeuvre. ///
ReplyDeleteDon't have to be in the air defence centre to know what is a hostile path or manoeuvre. That is exactly my point - the US has already shown its hostile manoeuvre by carrying out provocative exercise involving stealth B2 bombers right at their doorstep. Why has Kim-fat-boy not launch his nukes? Think about it. Its a bluff and the US is calling his bluff. He wants money so that he can stock up on his caviar, hennessy and all the other goodies.
The US drones and other armed UAVs can drop bombs on NK from 60,000 ft up in the air. You think NK can counter that? The Russians and China, maybe. NK? You wait long long lah.
Whose technology was it to take control of an American drone and bring it down inside Iran with everything in tact? Who is Iran's closest military ally in the development of military technology?
ReplyDeleteredbean, please lah. Most cuntree in the world don't have a military issue with the US.
ReplyDeleteWTF, what are the N Koreans thinking? Why would they want to antagonize the Big Alpha Dog? That is insane. And to what purpose, exactly?
What? N Korea want to be the cuntree which puts America "in it's place" or "teach America a lesson"?
Please lah. Keep it real.
the *international community* is in a tizzy over yet another
ReplyDelete*threat* to the *free world* , without bothering to check who started this bs !
a classic trap set by fukus the cunning one
damned if china lean on nk
damned if china doesnt *reign in* nk [as if it has that leverage !]
if shits start hitting the fan
a couple of *loose missiles* might *accidentally* land on china n.....
no gaurantee that it would NOT come from nk
China must make it public and warn the Americans that any missile hitting Chinese targets in North Korean or China will be war. It must not allow a second Belgrade Incident to happen again.

ReplyDeletethis guy sums it up....

*No amount of internet chatter will change the fact that the USA is insane. To China's dismay the US is now going broke and true to China's predictions the US will rampage and kill on an increasing scale, to the death of everyone else and even to its own death. It is simply incapable of thinking any other way. This insanity is not restricted to the US authorities. The effective majority of US citizens, businesses and financial and cultural structures allows and welcomes it. It is a cultural problem. All things included, the USA like Israel and the rest of the Anglo Saxon world is insane on aggregate*
The US is apprehensive and worry too.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise it would had gone ahead with it's missile test.
Why was It afraid that the impending test maybe misread by N Korea?
Hi denk, you said it. But many silly Asian leaders still believe the US is a benign and benevolent superpower.

ReplyDeleteeverybody here knows that fukus is the shit stirrer
but what do u expect china to do when its encircled by a fukus led posse of japan, vietnam, sk, india n oz , a de facto asian nato ?
nk is supposed to be an ally
but, it has never acted in concert with china,
it always acted unilaterally n get china into a bind like this.
its damned if u do, damned if u dont for china
exactly where fukus wants it
china is completely on its own
fukus is ratching up the pressure in ecs, scs, tibet , korean penensula n i dare say the current bird flu crisis is another bio attack from u know who.
china's other allies nepal , myanmar have already been compromised.
china is lambasted by a fukus led *international community* for *condoning * or even *insitigating nk provocations* [sic]
at the other end, *progressives* now diss it for *appeasing fukus* , *betraying its nk ally*
fukus must be chuckling to himself over a champaign right now
the cunning one stirring the shit while china gets the blame
its the same with the iran fiasco.
