As soon as america bankrupts, (which it already is and has been) and or the dollar collapses, then we shall see some action, but I do not think until then...

One of these days, I think China will convince the leader of North Korea to step down.

The geopolitical risk of N.Korea and M.East has the financial markets spooked - they are not taking it likely - outside of the US there is a big mistrust of Trump as he is a man of action. THe US had a very strong advantage over Russia in the cold war but now with Russia, China, Iran N.Korea etc. and their political leaders are hot heads as well - it is going to end badly.

He is a madman the only way he steps down if he is assassinated, the only two option the US has; Assassination, or make the Korean peninsular a nuclear waste land.

I agree he is an evil, immature, madman who is going to do one final stupid thing someday (if he hasn't done it already) which will end it all for him. I guess I'm just thinking that it will be China and not the USA that finally ends his career in politics.

We will see... that region is a powder keg just waiting to be ignited to blow.

The Korean crisis is reaching critical mass. Not only does intelligence show that they are prepping for another nuke test as early as this weekend, but now there are sources saying a strike may be launched BEFORE they conduct the test. Seoul, who's at the biggest risk of retaliation, has to sign off on it.

Also being reported, an unknown number of Japanese warships will be joining the US carrier strike group in the Korean Peninsula for "exercises".

He's not one to spread false narratives, so there might be something to this. I'm sure we'll be hearing and seeing more about this.

I personally hope that China will step in and take out Kim Jon Un however you spell it. I do not want to see this escalate but we know the times we are living in. It's hard to say what will happen.
