bombshell report: new U.S. intelligence assessment on North Korea nukes
 

According to multiple intelligence sources familiar with the work, Pyongyang has increased its production of fuel for nuclear warheads at what could be several “secret sites” over several months.

And worst of all, it appears that Chairman Kim Jong Un is trying to hide these facilities, all the while claiming he wishes to denuclearize his nation, a promise the young dictator made to President Trump at the Singapore summit last month.


Various U.S. intelligence officials, contrary to administration claims, see Pyongyang as a very dangerous nuclear threat, whose weapons arsenal is only growing by the day.

NBC cites more than “a dozen American officials” who see the regime as attempting to gain as many concessions from the Trump administration as possible, all while “clinging to nuclear weapons it believes are essential to survival.”

Watch what happens...

should i get some really dark sunglasses to watch?

Whatever makes you the most comfortable for future viewing. :thumbsup

I don't expect you to agree with me - you've made your position on this clear.

Mainly, I position for the future so when it's shown that I am correct on this and that the negative info is fake and disseminated on purpose, you will have a person you can trust to go to for the truth because he told it to you all along... :winkwink:

So far.... The United States has pulled some troops out of North Korea and canceled and joint training, and in return.... North Korea has committed to "continuing talks about the possibility of removing nuclear weapons".

Now I am reading any deal made with North Korea will not result any NK removing or destroying nuclear weapons until the very last step. This means we give NK everything they want, and then hope they keep their end of the deal.

More winning.

yes yes that 9 dimensional chess thing eh. it's all going according to trump's 60,000 foot level negotiating strategy. very clever of trump to give away things like military training in the region so Un can keep building nukes all to make Un stop building nukes.

Cheeky!

No preparation was needed ... it was all a question of ' attitude ' ....

... meanwhile, in Iran ....


:1orglaugh:1orglaugh


PS: please build the wall on the north border, high enough to stop the radiation from coming to my country .... :1orglaugh:1orglaugh
PS2: ask Mexico to pay for it .... :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

No worries, amigo! I'll be here when the time comes - until then, enjoy the theater. :pimp

Yep, nothing happening in Iran at all. Do NOT look over there.

one of the big reasons I'm critical of the NK "deal" is on account of Iran. they're certainly watching the trump double-speak, high 5ing Un for being a classy guy due to his nuclear arsenal and giving away voluntarily things like military training in the region. why wouldn't iran follow trump's lead and agree to canceling the iran deal. Fire up the centrifuges!

You might want to consider that "trump's 60,000 foot level" makes the field look a bit different than it does to you.

Anyway - this will accomplish nothing to change your mind and I understand that. Only time will make that happen and time isn't going anywhere..,

are you open to the possibilty that Un tricked Trump?

nevermind how trump voluntarily gave away concessions for zilch in return.

Almost anything is possible, however unlikely.

It is my opinion that you do not understand what is happening or the reasons for it, and that your view is very biased for anti-Trump reasons.

Trump is not giving away concessions for zilch in return - does that SOUND like this President? Maybe to you. To the rest of us with eyeballs, President Trump plays hardball without a flinch - fire and fury, global tariffs, Iranian bad deal dumped, immigration, etc.

Trump is giving North Korea MASSIVE face in an arena where it's coin of the realm. This is what previous admins did not understand. It would be pure folly to go in there and act like a conqueror - THIS is the strategy that will work.

We are now partners and allies with NK - believe what you like. :winkwink:

this isn't about me so your opinion of me isn't relevant. the fact are

1. trump voluntarily stopped current military training in the region
2. Un has not stopped any current anything, in fact, quite the opposite, confirmed by multiple sources.
3. trump already declared NK is no longer a nuclear threat, when in fact, it's a very real threat.

none of those has anything to do with me or my view of trump. You look at those facts and think they are all part of this master trump super negotiating strategy that we're all supposed to hold our breath in anticipation of denuking while I see those facts supporting the bigger fact that there is no deal at all, regardless of my view on trump.

I'd like to know what trump is going to do when he has to confront the reality that he's been played by Un. that's my opinion on the facts above.

See it how you like, amigo. One of us will be right. :thumbsup

I keep waiting for some good news on it. there are certainly more than a couple trumpers here who would start a thread about that if there were any good denuke news, just to rub my nose in my view on the matter.

so even trumpers really know there is no good news to report. It appears they have an issue with realizing there is no deal. we're all just supposed to hold our collective breath and trust in trump's "attitude" strategy while we watch NK continue nuking up.

Mr. trump calls himself the "master negotiator" but yet almost two years in office and he has yet to negotiate a single deal.

Facts don't matter to trump people. At all.

Wait, you aren't seeing any good news to report?

It must not be happening.

Curses, foiled again!

We already have.. NK got everything they asked for and more... Yet did nothing in return but blow up a few cave entrances to a complex that was likely unstable and not capable of being used again...


The art of the deal, is not about making deals.. it's about brainwashing you..

This is being pushed by Susan "Youtube video did it" Rice.. Total scare tactic from the left... I see a lefty mentioned Iran.. Why isn't she talking about what's going on there? "The leaks are real, the news is fake."

Done replying to you until you confirm or deny your belief in Mrs. Bladewire fake nic lies.

You claim the reason there is no good news to report is due to my and MSM's anti-trump bias and our lack of comprehending trump's ultra sophisticated negotiating tactics.

I claim the reason there is no good news is because satellite images and intelligent assessments reveal there is no good news.

why would I forgo facts? because....trump?

keep in mind I'm only really hyper critical of trump with the NK nuclear deal. sure, he's a horrible person and a deal breaker, not a deal maker. but those things don't concern me as much as the nuclear sitch. I prolly wouldn't even be that concerned about nukes if trump hadn't threatened nuclear war and made big dick references to America's nuclear arsenal.

That's not what I claim at all - LOL!

You are seeing what you are intended to see and then interpret that as good or bad.

Since neither of us can prove anything at all, we are left with our opinions on what is happening. One of us will be right. I suggest you bookmark this thread, and we'll revisit it later this year because one of us will have bragging rights.

Bolton says the US has a plan to dismantle North Korea’s nuclear program within a year

and on the world stage and in dealing with any global issues of consequence or influencing anything at all... anywhere.... Canada is still 100% irrelevant.

That's fine sweetheart.. I'll be here waiting for you to denounce Republicans & Trump for supporting Nazis and White Supremacist.

I don't care if you support Mrs. Bladewire's political opinions - that is expected. Until recently, I have assumed that we disagree politically but that you were intellectually honest about who is who. I can see I was wrong. Toodles.

Doesn't he look like he knows what he's doing?

I appreciate the clarification! :thumbsup And you know I've already said elsewhere I hope you are right and that I am wrong.

You're in luck, because I am. :)

I can't take much credit - I have friends on the ground in South Korea that have helped me understand how things work over there and they have 100% confidence in this strategy. It doesn't mean they are right, either - but if I had to bet on them or the American media or GFY - they get my money.
