Two Scenarios...as the Clock Ticks Down
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

Scenario number one:
“North
Korea 'will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen'
if more threats emerge.”
- President
Donald Trump, August 8, 2017
Words
said that are anything but reckless saber rattling nor are they
words of belligerence as many in Congress...both Democrats and RINO
Republicans...try to make them out to be...for these are words said
by our president rightfully preparing us for possible war.
North Korea...the Democratic People's Republic of Korea... aka the 'Hermit Kingdom...is a thorn in both America's and the world's side. A country whose people are suffering yet a country remaining at the mercy of a madman who now has the capability to launch an ICBM with a small nuclear tipped warhead riding atop it. North Korea...now for the time being relegating the always ongoing islamist threat to second place as the very mad man-child in charge...Kim Jong-un...is willing to sell out the lives of his own people to the highest bidder. In fact, he already has, for with North Korea now claiming to have the miniaturization process...whether developed on their own or gotten from their ally Iran...means that Iran..."Death to America" Iran...either already has said process or soon will have it courtesy of North Korea.
Islamists to the east of us...a madman to the west of us...surely aligned together and closing in for the kill.

So as we sit on the brink of war...'real' war with nukes part of the equation...I find it hard to believe that some once 'warriors' have now become 'lambs'...'lambs' easily led to the slaughter while true warriors know and understand that in war blood must be shed...maybe even demanding to be shed...in order for true peace to take hold. And that war we now face before there can be peace has the enemy in possession of up to 60 nuclear weapons...more than three times the number our previous president led us all to believe.

And yet our president's critics abound...a misinformed and uniformed bunch of 'doom and gloomers' who fear what the media claims is our president's "unpredictability”...politically fueled critics who relish in adding to both the ever-growing concern and fear over wars threat as well as to the escalating perception that our Commander-in-Chief may seriously be considering a preemptive strike on the man-child's homeland...a preemptive strike they claim would have catastrophic consequences.

And if today's Chamberlain-type of despot placators still do not understand that it truly is either them or us...and them now is a 'twofer' as war with North Korea will also be war with Iran...then we truly have lost the war before it even begins.
So how would preemptive strikes work against North Korea...the country George W. Bush called the “axis of evil” and Condoleeza Rice called an “outpost of tyranny”...and for good reason for when six million of a country's people are starving while their mad man-child dictator could care less...you just know that brutality given must become brutality paid back.

And the question being bandied about on social media, as well as the mainstream media over the past few days is simple…should a preemptive strike be launched against North Korea and when exactly should we do said launch?
And the matter of when is on a timetable set by the man-child who last Wednesday saw North Korea's military calling our president's threat of a preemptive strike a "load of nonsense" adding that only "absolute force can work on the president.” But the man-child and his military have it wrong for the power of force will be by us even if it now has to be called 'retaliation'...retaliation to also include righting the wrongs done by the last three presidents who allowed this all to happen.

So decisions and plans must be made post-haste to do what needs to be done whether Guam itself is the target or not...whether it would be a preemptive strike or a retaliatory response... and it needs to be done whether the current fuse is temporarily diffused and no matter that the Chinese government still calls for restraint in the "provocations” between the U.S. and North Korea. But the questions that need to be answered are what is involved in actually going to war with North Korea and how would said war actually be carried out.

And while the South Korean military...650,000 active troops plus three million in reserve... would do most of the initial fighting the 30,000 U.S. troops currently in South Korea including the U.S. 8th Army 2nd Infantry Division...who brings with it a combat aviation brigade, a field artillery brigade, an armored brigade combat team, and a chemical weapons battalion...would aid in the ground fighting. And while U.S. air power using sophisticated air defense and anti-artillery systems hits key North Korean military positions, the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division would deploy its brigade combat team of paratroopers...part of America’s Global Response Force...to aid on the ground. And let's not forget the Marines...close by in Japan.

And then there is the fact that even with a full-scale what is called 'conventional war'...minus the horror of nukes being thrown into the mix...said war would still devastate the entirety of the Korean Peninsula. And that devastation could leave in its wake up to one million dead and a humanitarian crisis unseen since the end of WWII no matter that in the end the man-child and his regime would be taken out.

And
know that all our survival depends on it for if North Korea is not
stopped Iran will be the next one coming for us...and the naysayers,
kumbaya sorts, and those still whining that Donald Trump is president
be damned.
While the first scenario seems on the surface to be the most likely...at least we are being led to believe so...there is another possible scenario that must be spoken about...a scenario that even our president might not be telling us. First, it must be accepted as fact that discussions are going on behind the scenes to end the standoff and tone down the rhetoric between President Trump and Kim Jong-un... discussions that will never be 'tweeted' about for obvious security reasons...discussions that are ongoing between Joseph Yun...the United States Special Representative for North Korea Policy and concurrently the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Korea and Japan in the U.S. State Department, as well as being the man who succeeding in getting out of North Korea, American student Otto Warmbier and accompanied him home... and Pak Song Il, a senior North Korean diplomat at the country's U.N. mission.
Second, while we and the rest of the western world call Kim Jong-un a mad man-child...an insane and brutal despot...the fact is that sometimes madmen come close to ruling the world as was the case with both Adolph Hitler and to a lesser degree Joseph Stalin. Brilliant military tacticians via military advice taken, these men manipulated millions to fight their battles without them actually having physical blood running down their hands. And such could be the case with the man-child who is manipulating us to gear up to do one thing when his plan all along is to sneak up from behind and have us lose 'face' while he...if not securing a military victory...does come out on top in the end.

Kim Jong-un to most everyone's surprise, under a pseudonym as the son of a Korean diplomat, was partly western educated in of all places Germany, and he has a taste for all the 'niceties' we take for granted. And he also is a man who has made himself over into a clone of his much admired and somewhat westernized grandfather Kim Il-sung...weight gain and all. And why... because during much of Kim Il-sung's rule...especially in the 1960's through the 1970's... North Korea's economy was actually bigger than that of South Korea's and as such was taken somewhat seriously on the world stage. However, today, much to the fault of his father, Kim Jong-il, under whose regime the country suffered from years of famine mostly due to his own gross economic mismanagement...the per capita income in the North is sadly less than five percent of the South's.

So how would he pull that off while at the same time lauding a victory of sorts over President Trump and manipulate our country at the same time...he would do it through what in North Korea is known as a policy of 'byungjin'...meaning 'parallel advance.' This simply means that his seeming all-consuming pursuit of nuclear weapons would continue while at the same time he silently pursues his true goal of economic salvation. And here's the thing...using the quest for nuclear weapons as a diversion of sorts allows him to secretly focus on trying to set in motion much needed economic growth and honor his and his country's beloved (for better or worse) grandfather in return. Remember, in Oriental cultures, and even for despots, ancestral honoring is a must.

In fact, just two days ago, South Korea's Vice Defense Minister Suh Choo-suk said, "Both the United States and South Korea do not believe North Korea has completely gained re-entry technology in material engineering terms,"* and that they are at least one or two years away from doing so. And on this past 'Fox News Sunday,' C.I.A. Director Mike Pompeo said that while Kim Jong-un might conduct another missile test, talk of being on the brink of nuclear war was overstated, adding that, "I've seen no intelligence that would indicate that we're in that place today,"
Remember too, all this talk about miniaturization success and other such related matters started just mere days after the latest sanctions went into effect...coincidence...I think not.
And Kim Jong-un, no matter our name calling, is indeed smart enough to know that he cannot win militarily against the might of the U.S...he knows well that to fight us would be the end of his regime with 'face'...if not his life...lost. But if he could force the releasing of sanctions by bringing his and our country to the brink of nuclear war...a war he never really intended to start...and then at the last minute reaches an agreement of sorts before the first missile is scheduled to be launched...an agreement that would include some sanctions being lifted... which was the man-child's true goal all along...then in his eyes he and North Korea become the winners and President Trump and the U.S. the losers...'face' wise that is.
It really is all about money as is usually the case for economics dictates politics and policy as politics is but a function of economics.


And so I have presented what I consider the two most likely scenarios we face, both of which need to play out to see which one comes to fruition. But know that in either case the real loser is the North Korean people themselves for they could see their country not only destroyed but destroyed with the possibility of one million dead in scenario number one; and they get to keep the man-child as their 'supreme ruler' in scenario number two, knowing well that now that very 'supreme ruler' will be even more egotistical, narcissistic, bombastic, and dangerous than ever before.
