Trump mulls attacking North Korea after reported H-Bomb test!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - September 3, 2017 - North Korea has carried out its sixth nuclear test, this time claiming it to be a hydrogen bomb, representing a major advance in its capabilities. Fascist Police States of Amerika President Donald Trump responded with a new round of threats, as well as new condemnations of diplomacy as a strategy that could be employed. Again declaring North Korea “a rogue nation,” President Trump publicly faulted South Korea’s calls for diplomacy, labeling it “appeasement,” and insisting that North Korea “only understands one thing.”
Threats to attack North Korea have become so common in the Trump regime that if it really was the only thing North Korea understands, one would’ve figured it would’ve done something by now, other than bringing both sides to the brink of a major war, and one that all analysts agree is going to be disastrously bad for everyone.
When asked if the FPSA was going to attack North Korea, President Trump offered a very unsatisfying “we’ll see”, leading to a flurry of concerns that Trump is not taking a war that would likely kill millions of people very seriously.
Whether or not North Korea really does have a hydrogen bomb now, the nation’s retaliatory capabilities to a FPSA strike are vast, which has long been a deterrent to the FPSA attacking. Ever worsening tensions, exacerbated by Trump’s bellicosity and very public aversion to diplomacy, risks leading to a calamity.
But the risk of war, vast though it is, is only one concern. Trump also took a shot at China, declaring it an “embarrassment” to that it had been unable to get North Korea to give in to FPSA demands.
Beyond that, Trump and other officials threatened to cut off all FPSA trade to any nation that has any trade with North Korea, a list that includes China, Russia, Pakistan, India, the Philippines, and Thailand, along with several smaller nations.
Of course, a trade war on this level risks doing massive damage to the FPSA economy, given how vital a trading partner China is. The threat to cut off all these major nations also risks pushing them all into a bloc together against the FPSA.
The risks of the FPSA going down this path are myriad, though the regime is explicitly setting it up as the only option it thinks is available to it, and going out of its way to dismiss out of hand any alternative that might reduce tensions.
