A bully, with exuberant cheats, of the old age, when the micro-mothers wanted their children fat, to
withstand illnesses, scatters fear worldwide. He raises serious questions about
his motives and goals. Questions about how, for example, has the convenience of
sending missiles to precision ribbons between the Japanese islands, closing the
Japanese in the shelters. What is the cause? Where does it go? Who supports
him?
A first approach is an old and good joke. A lawyer, after making sure
that his daughter learned the job, left her his traditional office. After some
time, she tells him with pride: "Dad, Papadopoulos's envelope was closed.
We were right. Yesss !!! ». Answer: "My sweet daughter, with Papadopoulos'
s case, I grew you up, I paid for your studies, I gave you to be married. And
you closed it? "
Unfortunately, the 33-year-old Kim Yong Oun has clearly gone
done better. He learned his job well from his father Kim Jong-il, who had been
also taught from his father Kim Il Sung's father. The dynasty began in 1948,
and Kim Jou-e follows. The dynasty keeps strongly the country's reins, having
as a propaganda weapon the "lessons" it gives to the Americans.
Perhaps –perhaps!– it is not so well
known, for example, that North Korea has in the past repeatedly destroyed
American aircrafts. Unpunished.
This dimension, the inveterate, has been shown directly and formally (26/9) by President Trump."North Korea is a situation that should have been handled 25 years ago, 20 years
ago, 15 years ago, 10 years ago, and five years ago, and it could have been
handled much more easily." And he added,
"You had various administrations -- many
administrations which left me a mess. But I'll fix the mess. So we'll see what happens with North Korea."
Exactly this chaos, and in more dimensions, is revealed by a mere
careful analysis of what followed the well-known Trump threat (19/9) for
"total destruction" of the country of the "Rocket man".
North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho answered in dramatic tone (25/9): "The
whole world should clearly remember it was the US who first declared war
on our country." And he added: "We will have every right to make countermeasures, including the right to
shoot down United States strategic bombers even when they are not inside the
airspace border of our country."
The White House responded immediately, through spokeswoman Sarah
Sanders: "We've not declared war on North Korea. And frankly, the
suggestion of that is absurd." Actually, the suggestion was absurd indeed,
as the presidential threat was conditional: "if [US] is forced to defend
itself or its allies." It is clearly the so-called "casus
belli". Threat to war, that is, not war declaration.
It seems, however, that along with the North Koreans, many others did
not understand well. Deutsche Welle e.g. put as title: "North Korea
accuses Donald Trump of 'declaring war'" and similar
anti-Trumpism as content. And somewhere towards the end of the long press, it
neutrally says about the above American answer.
The well-planned stress test, therefore, proves a double issue of
paranoia. It is paranoia the North Korean response, but also is the attitude of
various third parties. Either awkward or abusive. Just so, after decades of
hesitation, and similar misery, we have reached today's chaos.
What
has changed now is also binary. America, on the one hand, shows not only
determined but also capable of giving creative solutions. Enough with the
"solutions" of diplomacy. Just to be taken under consideration: The
analysis of the signatory "The Trump Avenue for global condescension",
with the relevant slogan
"make business, not war", was sent straight to the White House. And
the answering
email (25/9) would not be assumed as completely nonchalance: "We are carefully reviewing your message."
On the other hand, China's attitude has clearly changed. Not only is
willingly participating in the sanctions, but also hosted (yesterday, 30/9) US
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson saying enigmatically: " We have a couple of direct channels to Pyongyang. We can talk to them.
We do talk to them. Directly, through our own channels.
"
Effortlessly emerges the crucial question: Why
not North Korea to follow
the "road" of China?
If so, may be, President Trump's 12-day visit to the Far East bets on a
positive answer. Seoul, Tokyo, Beijing, Manila, Hanoi. November 3 to November
14, including the anniversary of his victory.
So: If the dynasty's answer appears negative, should we expect ...
Brute?
"Elementary Watson".
