Donald Trump to N.Korea:
Trumps explicitly said:
"This would be a fatal miscalculation (that past restrains of the US being weakness)...This is a very different administration than the US has had in the past..." "Do not underestimate us. Do not try us."
The fact of the real world is there was WWI and WWII; there was the very devastating Korean war, the Vietnam war and the other Mid East wars. Who can tell that World War Three will never happen. The optimists always use the predictions of doomsday as examples - that they all failed. So if someone predicts WWIII, they too will show why human are NOW smart enough to know a real world war has no ultimate winner - it will never happen.
I) Will Kim Jong-Un kneel and surrender? We have the most recent historical precedents. Bin Laden had to be encased in concrete and secretly dumped into the ocean. Saddam Hussein had to be hanged. Gaddafi had to be bombed away.
But North Korea is no Middle East. It is a very sensitive buffer zone for China. It was also this very reason that the Chinese intervened in the Korean War of 1950-1953. China intervened despite the obvious fact that it was disadvantaged in all manner, fighting a hopeless war against the UN (18 nations) including the US with their huge military hardware advantage.Even now, I think it is difficult for China to accept a full unified Korean peninsula with THAAD along the border of China.
II) Donald Trump - he is one of the "most interesting" US president in many,many decades. Long ago, I read somewhere someone wrote a boring US president is the safest bet for peace in the world; an interesting US president is the most dangerous.
Trump really proves himself interesting - he recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. One of the reasons he gave was also the "most interesting": Israel is a sovereign nation and any sovereign nation has the right to choose its capital city. It is a mile thick steel-tight argument which may only be broken with a thermonuclear device! How do your argue with Trump? It is why he is so interesting.
What Obama did, Trump undo; as in health care. What if he smiles and shake hands with Xi Jinping and forgets the very next day. What if Trump does not just make interesting statements, but unleash the most interesting military operations against North Korea.
