U.S. Commander Of South Korea Gives The Call, ‘We Are Ready For War'
2017-07-07
[ConservativeDailyPost] The top U.S. commander in South Korea, Army Gen. Vincent K. Brooks, warned Kim Jong Un’s regime that America and its South Korean ally are prepared for war. The commander made this strong statement a day after Pyongyang conducted its first intercontinental ballistic missile test.

Additionally, Brooks assured that self-restraint is the only detail that separates armistice and war. Also, he explained that as this Alliance missile live fire shows, American military forces are able to change their choice when so ordered by Alliance national leaders. Naturally, the commander’s assertions revealed that a major clash against North Korea could be about to happen.

Far from showing a weaker stance, South Korea’s top military officer Gen. Lee Sun-Jin, who is also chairman of the Republic of Korea Joint Chiefs of Staff, assured they could make resolute decisions anytime if the Alliance Commanders in Chief order. Regarding his words, Brooks told it would be a terrible mistake for anyone to believe anything to the contrary.

#2  Still sitting in the Casey compound within short distance of the DMZ, unable to get the whole contingent out of the 2 front gates and on the single MSR in less than 2 days? One good SCUD barrage and you're rating will be just plain ineffective. BFO

Ready is not timing. But timing seems to mean more these days.

Not asking for clarification, just..

If you know you can change regime, Green light that shit fast.
