Nth Korea tested more missiles last year and more in 2015 than this year.
How come the world didn't end then? Did you even hear about those tests?

Here you go maxie, you might get your wish of millions murdered if the lunatic gets his way
Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Monday said President Trump's rhetoric directed at North Korea must be taken "seriously," following remarks made by Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) about Trump possibly leading the U.S. on the path toward "World War III." "It's time to take Trump seriously as he keeps hinting, over and over, that he wants to go to war with North Korea," Murphy said in a series of tweets, adding that some of the president's other tweets have proven to not always be "just bluster." Murphy, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said "many" lawmakers have begun to hear "whispers of more serious war talk in and near the White House." |

He must be getting an audience .
Maybe they agree on the need to stop NK from continuing on their development of greater Nuclear power. Your paste seems to be surprised about Trump being serious about taking Kimmy out. I would suggest he is duty bound to take him out. |

Your sources in so many areas PT are frightening. All honing in on Trump. Your other man ( Abbott ) from memory is the new rising star. He put some high explosives under Turnbull with his most recent speech. Too add to that Mark Latham has released his book. Wonderful description of the faltering School boy Malcolm. They need some action on NK to divert attention. |

Abbott was well received here .. Talkback & Sky were very supportive . This renewables and Climate Hoax need to be thrown right out. The consensus is that Turnbull can't win an election . WHY do they keep him there. |

The right of politics here as in the US is in a parlous state maxie. When a return to Abbott is the answer, the question is too scary to contemplate.
It may well split here as it will over there where Bannon has declared war on Republicans. Tones should shuffle off to the new Insiders when it starts on Murdoch's new Sky News/Faux Fox network and leave us alone

North Korea 'hackers steal US-South Korea war plans'
Hackers from North Korea are reported to have stolen a large cache of military documents from South Korea, including a plan to assassinate North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un. Rhee Cheol-hee, a South Korean lawmaker, said the information was from his country's defence ministry. The compromised documents include wartime contingency plans drawn up by the US and South Korea. They also include reports to the allies' senior commanders. The South Korean defence ministry has so far refused to comment about the allegation. Plans for the South's special forces were reportedly a more..... |

They sure are Russia
writes off 90 percent of North Korea's debt Maya
Dyakina, Lidia Kelly 4 MIN READ MOSCOW
(Reuters) - Russia said on Tuesday it agreed to write off 90 percent of North
Korea’s $11 billion debt and would reinvest the balance in the reclusive Asian
state, in a sign of closer engagement with Pyongyang under new leader Kim
Jong-un.
By writing
off most of the sum owed by North Korea, one of the world’s poorest countries,
Russia granted a level of forgiveness in line with debt reduction deals it has
given to its most impoverished debtors. Moscow said
the remaining $1 billion or so of the debt racked up by Pyongyang when it was a
client state of the Soviet Union would go towards energy and education deals as
well as development aid. “It will be
decided later by the parties for what purposes the funds received for the
repayment of this debt will be used,” Konstantin Vyshkovsky, head of the debt
department at the Russian Finance Ministry, told Reuters. Parts of the
international community have been seeking to re-engage with North Korea since
the death of Kim Jong-il, amid hopes that his son and successor would seek ways
to end years of isolation and poverty.
RAIL AND
POWER LINES
Analysts
believe infrastructure deals will likely be a big part of the investments,
including in railway and power lines. Russia is
also considering building a gas pipeline to energy-hungry South Korea - which
Alexander Vorontsov, head of the Korean and Mongolian Studies department at a
Russian Academy of Sciences institute, said Pyongyang would be bound to
welcome. “Yes,
they’re in conflict (with the South), but undoubtedly, North Korea is very
interested in the pipeline,” he said.
The two
Koreas remain technically at war and are separated by one of the world’s most
militarized frontiers. Analysts say
those tensions and other sources of gas that South Korea benefits from mean the
pipeline project is unlikely to get off the ground, at least for the time
being.
“Nothing
will happen immediately,” Vorontsov said. “But the (debt) agreement is a
success - first, it will improve economic cooperation with North Korea itself
and this could gradually lead to the expansion of Russia’s influence in Eastern
Asia.” North Korea
traditionally played off China, its main economic and political backer, against
the former Soviet Union until the latter’s collapse in 1991. Negotiations on
restructuring the debt to Russia stalled for most of the past two decades, with
fresh talks starting only a year ago. Russia,
which hosted an Asia-Pacific summit earlier this month near the North Korean
and Chinese borders which Pyongyang did not attend, is keen to increase its
influence in Asia’s fast growing economies. Moscow ships
half of its exports to Europe but, prompted by the region’s debt crisis, the
government wants to double the share of exports that go to the Asia-Pacific
region, which now make up a quarter of the total. At the
summit in Vladivostok, gas export monopoly Gazprom signed a draft deal with
Japan on a liquefied natural gas export terminal on Russia’s Pacific seaboard
that dealt a blow to the trans-Korea pipeline’s prospects. The
outstanding debt owed by North Korea will be managed by Russia’s state
development bank, Vnesheconombank. |

Jimmy Carter hopes to meet with North’s KimFormer U.S. president helped broker a deal in 1994 nuclear crisis Oct 10,2017Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter has expressed a desire to visit Pyongyang as a messenger between the United States and North Korea, Park Han-shik, an emeritus professor of international affairs at the University of Georgia, said Sunday. “Carter wants to meet with the North Korean leader and play a constructive role for peace on the Korean Peninsula as he did in 1994,” Park, 78, told the JoongAng Ilbo over phone after meeting with the 93-year-old former president. Park, a prominent scholar of North Korea-related issues who has traveled to Pyongyang over 50 times, visited Carter, who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his work with the Atlanta-based Carter Center, at the former president’s home in Plains, Georgia, on Sept. 28. “Should former President Carter be able to visit North Korea, he would like to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and discuss a peace treaty between the United States and the North and a complete denuclearization of North Korea,” Park said, “and contribute toward establishing a permanent peace regime on the Korean Peninsula.” “He wants to employ his experience visiting North Korea to prevent a second Korean War,” he continued. more..... |

It must have been a "gentler" America when Jimmy was POTUS. All the press wanted to talk about was his dopey brother, which was hardly stellar journalism.

So True Max , As someone else said on a thread , a retarded cat could have prospered in the years at & after Carter's Reign. Same here , up until the WFC. In most areas . Absurd numbers of immigrants in recent years has had Real Estate go through the roof, especially in NSW & Victoria , > Imagine the Tax on the sales at these inflated prices. ( different in some other areas who were dependent on such things as mining ) How wonderful was Johnny Howard & Costello = Bxllgelati. They came along in prosperous times and had us in Surplus. They also privatised areas like Telstra , Introduced a GST which is avoided by half the population. If they were in power now the mess would be little different. Howard was the GOOSE who started us on this Climate HOAX some 10 years back . Cocky Old Plik in my eyes. |

Trump has withdrawn the US from UNESCO, surrendering more global influence.
He says Education is for the wealthy and who needs Science or Culture anyway?
