Trump: 'We will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea' if continues on nuclear path. In his first major speech to the United Nations, President Trump said North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un is on a "Suicide mission for himself and his regime." He said the U.S. Is willing and able to take military action, but "Hopefully this will not be necessary." Ref. USAToday.
At United Nations, Trump says he will sign new executive order targeting North Korea. President Trump said Thursday he will sign a new executive order that will enable the United States to target individuals, businesses, and financial institutions that help North Korea's "Criminal rogue regime" develop nuclear weapons that pose a "Grave threat" to the world. Trump had a joint meeting Thursday morning with the leaders of South Korea and Japan. Ref. USAToday.
We will have to wait and see how this nut job in North Korea reacts to the latest sanctions that have been leveled at his country. I hope that more pressure from China helps get him to open his eyes some. After all he is a small tadpole in the schemes of things.
KN,
It even worse. He is threatening to test it over the Pacific Ocean. The world hasn't allowed open air test like that in decades. Depending on where he does it he could screw up the atmosphere and possibly even kill people. I'd be very surprised if we didn't consider that an act of war and retaliate.
