Orange-faced oaf Donald Trump threatens DPRK with "fire and fury," yet delivers only wind and flatulence.

Be prepared, there is a small chance that our horrendous leadership could unknowingly lead us into World War III.

Typing up the script right now, but it's a good time to remind: read articles like this to understand the DPRK.

Are articles like that terrifying? Yes. But does it help knowing what's actually fact vs. inflamed rhetoric of the WH? Most definitely.

We should all be following @38NorthNK, as well to get daily analysis of the DPRK. It's easy to feel like this is scary and out of control,

When all we hear are the explosive responses between the US and the DPRK. Having each step analyzed, helps put a lot into perspective.

Info gives us power. Trump's an idiot for his inflamed rhetoric, so it's up to us to get the facts, and be smarter than him about this.

Basic Dow headlines are a language he probably grasps.

Don't take that twitter account too seriously............

So am I right in thinking that nk has developed icbms? In which case, hasn't America got the Star Wars defense system to stop them?

(This is half remembered from school so have no idea about the current situation)

'Perhaps'.

Pain, today's news is rather that NK has possibly (!!!) managed to miniaturise nuclear warheads - a necessary precondition for them to be mountable on ballistic missiles.

This article explains the matter quite well and includes a map of confirmed and assumed ranges of NK's missiles: www.theguardian.com/world/2017/aug/08/north-korea-nuclear-miniaturised-warhead-advanced-considerably-japan

And, yes, it's scary, but we're not dead yet.

OMG he is just desperate to press the button isn't he. War shores up support.

I'm ready...

Love it NorthWest Pawsage. Am fashioning one as we speak.

If I make a tin foil hat this week (need to buy more in) I am going to do one of those viking helmets with horns. I am going out in style!

I know cozie - I do love it though!

Could the miniaturised nuclear warheads possibly be fake news, do we think?

So that Agent Orange can go into Armageddon mode as a distraction from real stuff?

Oh it's good.

Who can tell?

Wonder who leaked it.

Norty lion.

Could the miniaturised nuclear warheads possibly be fake news, do we think?

Yes, he might have confused a Russian doll with a nuclear warhead.

NK (possibly) have miniaturised nukes mmm the cynic in me says Trump is itching to have a war to deflect from all of his troubles, and this provides some flimsy justification.

"they will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen"

No, Donald. That was Game of Thrones you were watching.

If NK does have the technology, Trumps rants may push them to strike first.

That was to game of thrones not NK and nukes just incase you think I'm a maniac
