Trump warns 'all options' on table after North Korea launches missiles
2017-08-30
[DAWN] United States President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
warned on Tuesday that "all options" remained under consideration after North Korea launched a missile over Japan.

"Threatening and destabilising actions only increase the North Korean regime's isolation in the region and among all nations of the world," the White House said in a statement.

"All options are on the table." The statement said that the world "has received North Korea's latest message loud and clear: this regime has signalled its contempt for its neighbours, for all members of the United Nations
...aka the Oyster Bay Chowder and Marching Society...
, and for minimum standards of acceptable international behaviour."

The statement reiterates Trump's past threats to use military action to resolve the ongoing crisis with North Korea, including an apocalyptic warning of raining "fire and fury" on North Korea after Pyongyang last month carried out two Intercontinental ballistic missile tests.

Pyongyang in turn threatened to fire a salvo of missiles towards the US territory of Guam.

Trump also spoke by phone with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe following the missile launch.

"The two leaders agreed that North Korea poses a grave and growing direct threat to the United States, Japan, and the Republic of Korea, as well as to countries around the world," the White House said in a separate statement.

"President Trump and Prime Minister Abe committed to increasing pressure on North Korea, and doing their utmost to convince the international community to do the same."
FOX said that Kim Jong-un attended the last rocket launch. Evidently he enjoys rocket launches. Did I mention that Kim Jong-un was on hand at the launch site for the recent NORK rocket launch ?
