WEB Notes: All it would take is for Kim and a member or three of his military to be assassinated and it would bring down North Korea. This is a subject we were just discussing. The people are not happy with Kim and without him in the way it seems very probably those who take over would be more than willing to negotiate with global leaders and step into the current global structure.
Killing Kim Jong-un or placing American nukes in South Korea are two options presented to President Trump as possible retaliations to North Korea’s continued nuclear weapons program, according to reports Friday.
Both scenarios were laid out for Trump by his National Security Council ahead of his meeting with Chinese president Xi Jinping this week, NBC News reported.
“We have 20 years of diplomacy and sanctions under our belt that has failed to stop the North Korean program,” a senior intelligence official told NBC News. “I’m not advocating pre-emptive war, nor do I think that the deployment of nuclear weapons buys more for us than it costs.”

Apparently Trump and his officials know absolutely nothing about the history of China and North Korea because if they did, they would know that China has no interest in the US starting a war with North Korea because they do not want to handle the refugee fallout that would cost them billions. Not to mention they know the US would try to use a new North Korea (under US control) to surround the last part of their somewhat controlled border (currently being allied and protected with the help of North Korea) with American/UN/mercenary troops.
North Korea is a necessary evil for China and that’s been the whole reason why nothing has been done by them since day one.
Trump and his officials are complete dumbasses with zero knowledge of history, let alone the US Constitution or Bill of Rights.
Agreed.
We didn’t do very well in the last Korean “Conflict” (like Viet Nam, it was technically a “Conflict”, not a “War”). Of course, he could always push that red button and nuke the entire country… He did say that nukes are there to use… To Hell with what it would do to the rest of the planet… He would truly be “Famous”.
