PunkTheFunk 125,733 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 The US appears to be quietly preparing for nuclear war with North Korea While much of the world has celebrated the progress in talks between North Korea and South Korea ahead of the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang next month, as well as an apparent thaw in tensions with North Korea, the US has taken steps to move heavy firepower to the region. And though the US says it will delay its yearly military exercises with South Korea until the end of the Paralympics in March, it has elsewhere trained for scenarios that seem tailor-made for fighting North Korea. The New York Times reports that 48 Apache gunships and Chinook helicopters last month trained in Fort Bragg in North Carolina to move troops under artillery fire, and that soldiers will train next month to set up mobilization centers designed to quickly send forces overseas. Besides the exercises, the US has for the second time ever positioned both its nuclear-capable bombers in its territory of Guam, just a short flight from North Korea. In addition to the usual forward-deployed USS Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier in Japan, the USS Carl Vinson has also headed to the Pacific, while the smaller carriers USS Wasp and USS Bonhomme Richard also patrol the waters. While the US military maintains that these exercises are routine and unrelated to North Korea, the increased tensions with Pyongyang bring scrutiny to every move. While the recent inter-Korea talks — which South Korea has said will continue regularly and indefinitely — have dominated usually bleak headlines about North Korea, President Donald Trump's national security adviser, H.R. McMaster, reportedly dismissed them as "diversions"in a meeting with his Japanese and South Korean counterparts over the weekend. Most experts agree that Pyongyang will soon launch a satellite. And North Korea may hold a military parade in the days before the Olympics. And though few expect the US to initiate conflict with North Korea while civilians from around the world gather in Pyeongchang to watch one of the world's most important sporting events, a satellite launch would provide a suitable target for a "bloody nose" strike, which the US is reportedly considering. http://www.businessinsider.com/us-appears-quietly-preparing-nuclear-war-north-korea-2018-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no bitch I dont have time The first part sounds more like the ISIS attacks throughout Europe for me, which started in France. But he says there will be peace, supposedly in Syria, but only the few people who survived the civil war will enjoy it. As to the second part, I don't see NK as a world power, so we're fine so far.

I know talking about logic and nostradamus is kinda awkward, but think it through, a war with NK wont last 27 years, the same if Russia or China get involved, because a Nuclear War will technically last probably less than a day.... Im guessing he could be talking about any of the wars in the middle east, or the silent cold war against a country like Russia. In general, a 27 year war is very hard to happen, specially with nukes in the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
