Just how pe-emptive is the DUmmie talking? Is he talking of starting something just because the high level Norks are bunch of murdering psychopaths that enslave their own people and keep them in an Orwellian nightmare?
Or...
Is he talking, North Korean television is blasting nonstop about the glories of dying for juche, the North Koreans aren't answering the phone, intelligence is reporting that North Korea is out of food, satellite imagery shows more troops moving along the border than normal, and signals intelligence is reporting increased radio traffic consistent with an invasion?
It matters.
