China-Japan-Koreas
The North Korea gambit
2017-08-14
[IsraelNationalNews] First, understand that North Korea is a pawn in a geostrategic chess game being played by China and Russia against the United States.

The North Korean nuclear missile threat is built on technology provided by Russia and China, to threaten and if necessary wage nuclear war by proxy against the U.S. and its Pacific allies. Their North Korea gambit is to so increase the nuclear threat against the United States, so that U.S. security guarantees to Japan, South Korea and other allies will no longer be credible.

Will the U.S. sacrifice Chicago and Denver to protect Seoul and Tokyo?

China, Russia, and North Korea don’t think so.

...Begging China and Russia to rescue the U.S. from nuclear North Korea plays right into their hands by messaging our allies that the United States is helpless, that real power over North Korea is not in Washington, but in Beijing and Moscow.

Winning to Beijing, Moscow, and Pyongyang looks exactly like what President Obama’s Director of National Intelligence, General Clapper, proposed in a August 8 interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper, and what Obama’s national security advisor Susan Rice proposed in the New York Times--learn to live with a nuclear North Korea.

If the U.S. learns to live with a nuclear-armed North Korea, will we also learn to live with a nuclear-armed Iran? With China annexing the South China Sea and Taiwan? With Russia conquering the Baltic states and the other territories of the former USSR?

Iran, China, and Russia will probably think so. This way leads to global nuclear war, or to global surrender by the West, and a new world order dominated by Russia, China, North Korea and Iran.
What do the swamp cares as long as they get rid of Trump?
