What would you do to insure he doesn't kill millions of innocents?Stop pissing him off might be a good first step. A second might be the realization that there are some things even the mighty USA can't control. If the only tool you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail. Cops only tool is violence, so ... . I thought tRump wasn't going to be the world's police officer?! |

This is not being the world's policeman, it's the classic distraction policy to disguise what a w*nker he is. |

And the worrying thing is this: - Yep! That sounds about right! If WE are attacked, the rest of the world sits back and watches what we will do instead of "Hey, is there anything we can do to help?". But when the rest of you are attacked, WE are the first to be asked for help. It figures!!! We tried to remain neutral during WWII, until Japan decided to drag us in. Then we had to fight on 2 fronts: against Japan and help defend Europe from the Germans. My $0.02 worth. YMMV of course. CYA CAPT Siran d'Vel'nahr - L L & P _\\// Winders 11 OS?

United States Secretary of State Tillerson, in Rare High-Level Acknowledgment, Says U.S. Is in Direct Contact With North Korea What? The US have NO direct contact with NK. Rex Tillerson must be dreaming. I know a country though that have that. Hint. The country is spelled with a S in the beginning. ![]() In Pyongyang! |

The Wall Street Journal article references more than one channel. You have to be a subscriber to read WSJ. This is what I can read. BEIJING—The U.S. is in direct contact with North Korea, “probing†to see if Pyongyang is willing to engage in talks despite tensions that remain overheated, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said. |

But when the rest of you are attacked, WE are the first to be asked for help. It figures!!! At least get it right Siran. Britain has never asked you for help in those wars. What we did ask for, we paid for. However, I seem to recall that you asked for our help with your middle east affairs. As for your 2nd front in Europe, again we did not ask for that (even though it was most welcome). The USA decided themselves that Europe was in their best economic interests to sort it out 1st before Japan. |

But when the rest of you are attacked, WE are the first to be asked for help. It figures!!! First of all, I was not alive until a few years after the end of WWII. So yeah, you're correct, Britain never asked ME for any help. And, I never asked anyone for help with the Middle East either. :P It does seem that Prime Minister Churchill was hell bent on getting the U.S. into the war. Yes, we started supplying weapons, planes, ships, etc. And yes the cost was high. Nothing comes cheap. The U.S. cannot be blamed for getting reimbursed for the goods.

Of the original 50, 7 went to Canada's RCN. Due to being laid up for so long many had numerous defects so you lent us 10 newer ships (10 years younger than the "stuff" you sent). Destroyers for Bases Agreement, you still have bases here :-) @Siran, quite agree that payments must be made. Unfortunately, whenever debate about WWII crops up & that "item" enters play, it begs a "most serious question" for that "Special Relationship": - How is it that "our ally" made us pay in full yet give a 60% reduction to both Germany & Japan on their war debts? After Ping Pong II gets knocked off & NK devastated, ARE you going to give another "enemy" a large discount to enable the country to be rebuilt? |

they now have a thriving advanced economy http://www.38north.org/2017/09/jbaron090717/ Dr. Mitsuhiro Mimura: wrote: North Korea is the poorest advanced economy in the world—but what’s important to understand is that, while it may be poor, it is still an advanced economy. https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-09-14/north-korea-s-secret-weapon-economic-growth North Korea's Secret Weapon? Economic Growth. It is easy to understand how consumers of faux news fail to see what is right if front of them, that's how wars start, deliberate ignorance of the truth. |

they now have a thriving advanced economy It's been known for years that NK has been supplying small arms to countries and terrorists for years. And now Egypt has been caught with it's hands in the honey pot. A North Korean ship was seized off Egypt with a huge cache of weapons destined for a surprising buyer |

Their silence must be regarded as their agreement , and thankfully, a confirmation of our beliefs. Wind Chimes sound remarkably similar to 'One Hand Clapping'............ ![]() "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |
