Why Is There No Mini Kim Cheese?
Not to spoil your morning coffee break or anything but NDtBF a/k/a Fatty Kim da T’ird has gone and tested another missile, just to impress us that he means bidness.
Per the article, with the most recent test launch by Mr. No-Dongatall, the G7 have agreed to increase sanctions against the real-world version of Duloc. Lord Sitsquaad the Squat is shown in a screen shot of a Nork newspaper in the linked article watching his latest missile, what appears to be a Hwasong-12 (Mars-12) strategic ballistic rocket, but could have been a Pukguksong or a Pukkuksong. I can’t keep their music titles straight any more.
Note that General Ri and other nukey-birds are present in most of those photos with The Glorious Leader & Cheesesampler Supreme. The Nork Nukers are the three men believed to be the top officials in the country’s rapidly accelerating missile program. They are Ri Pyong Chol, a former top air force general; Kim Jong Sik, a veteran rocket scientist; and Jang Chang Ha, the head of the Academy of National Defence Science, a weapons development and procurement center.
Japan’s Prime Minister Abe is taking it seriously. At the G7 Summit held in Sicily this past week, he said that the threat has reached a new stage. He has a bit more to worry about than we do, since most of those missiles have been aimed across the Sea of Japan, right at Japan, specifically at Honshu Island, which suffered massive, devastating damage from the quake and horrendous tidal wave in March 2011. The US sent Japan a THAAD system a few weeks ago. China objected to it, but from the most recent reports I’ve seen, China is getting fed up with its squatty neighbor to the south.
Last week, I reported that the Nork government (meaning NDtBF) had started a ferry service to Vladivostok, which followed on the heels of news that a shipment of tracked armored vehicles and artillery had been transported to Vladivostok. No coincidence there. None at all. Nope.
On our side of the fence, USS Nimitz will be joining USS Ronald Regan and USS Carl Vinson, now at station near the Korean peninsula. I gather from the Express/UK article that this will be a live fire exercise opportunity to test our ability to shoot down an ICBM. That should upset Norkiland’s wine and cheese cart a little bit.
I’ve said this before: I may point and giggle, but when a nutball makes poisonous toys and throws them at his neighbors, I still take it seriously. If he shows up in my neighborhood, I’m getting out the fly swatter and hornet spray.
Stay tuned.

It’s all fun and games until the JDAMs start making it rain…with a few MOABs for drama
Well, Merkel is complaining on her side of the fence that the EU just can’t rely on the the US or UK any more. (Sniff, whimper)

This is because Trump refused to sign up on the Paris climate accord, which is the biggest piece of twaddle ever concocted. It’s just a grab for cash from those who have it (UK, US) by those who are going broke (Germany, etc.) Basically, Merkel was looking for money since the UK is leaving the EU and is whining because it isn’t going to happen. Also, Greece is flat broke (again) and is looking for another cash bailout.
I don’t think it matters as much to PM Abe (Japan), because his big issue is that silly pipsqueak on the western side of the Sea of Japan.
SECDEF Mattis opined today:
“The North Korean regime has hundreds of artillery cannons and rocket launchers within range of one of the most densely populated cities on earth, which is the capital of South Korea,” Mattis said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
“This regime is a threat to the region, to Japan, to South Korea. And in the event of war, they would bring danger to China and to Russia as well,” he added. “But the bottom line is it would be a catastrophic war if this turns into a combat if we’re not able to resolve this situation through diplomatic means.”

This is is only reason they exist to this day, in effect holding Seoul hostage.
Of course it will be a catastrophic war.
But the longer it takes to happen the more toys Kim dat 3 will be able to accumulate.
I say let’s go in right now, knock his door down, and take all his toys.
I’m not sure the folks in Seoul are enthusiastic as you are…
Pukguksong?
DuckDuckGoose?
DuckFuckGoose?
Kim-Cheese No-dong?
The biggest threat that I see regarding North Korea is that NDtBF is loony enough, egotistical enough, and insecure enough to use his Nukes.
Those who claim that we need to get rid of our nukes, that we are a threat because of our nukes, just don’t get it. We, and other sane powers possess nukes so that we can be a deterrent. Yes, we have Nukes, but we don’t have a batshit crazy ruler, and that is the big reason that we must keep our nukes, even as we devise ways to stop the NORK development of them.
The good old Cold War philosophy of MAD, Mutually Assured Destruction which likely kept nukes from being exchanged between the Superpowers. I don’t think that tubby ‘lil Kim-Cheese will abide by that, he’s far too mentally unstable and DITTO withe the Iranian mullahs in charge. IMHO the best thing that can happen right now is for tubby Kim-Cheese to just croak in his sleep and let Satan eat his soul afterward.
I could say something about the Freudian symbolism of having to shoot off missiles so often, but I thought it appropriate to refrain from taking that direction.
Love the Shrek reference…even started singing the Duloc song when I saw that. It’s perfect for NDtBF’s fairy tale make-believe world
