And?

It's unique. He has just officially threatened to wipe them from earth. That's a little significant.

Good. Someone should.

It's not verbatim, but he did say that , yes. He's still talking too.

You mean, like, nuke an entire country to get rid of their 1%?

Wipe out their nation. That's what he said. And he didn't mean army to army.

“Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for him and his regime,” says Trump, referring to Kim Jong-Un. He continues to say he hopes we don’t have to destroy North Korea.

He has moved on to Iran, saying the nuclear deal is “an embarrassment to the United States”.

Trump has been speaking for more than 20 minutes.

He says the member states must work together to confront %u201Crogue regimes%u201D.

%u201CIf the righteous many do not confront the wicked few, then evil will triumph,%u201D he says

14 minutes into the speech, Trump mentions North Korea, speaking about the death of American student Otto Warmbier after being detained by the North Korean government.

He says the %u201Centire world%u201D is threatened by the nuclear threat in North Korea.

%u201CWe have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea,%u201D Trump says.

That's some scary shit. Mostly because I actually believe that Trump is shortsighted enough to think that it would be a good idea.

You guys can be in denial all you want but that's what the man said.

well, that is one way of fixing the problem. :u I mean, if you wipe out the entire country at once, there would be no chance of retaliation. And afterwards we can go in and take the oil. It's a win win.

Oh yeah I am sure China and the rest of the world won't retaliate at all.

And all the innocent people who would die there and in South Korea don't matter either apparently

The reason why we have ISIS now is because we didn't take their oil when we had the chance. You've just gotta take the oil. We need it more than they do.

The worst thing about this is that the comments play directly into Kim's hand. His entire goal is to paint the US as a direct threat so he can do whatever he wants to "combat" them. Trump is literally giving him exactly what he wants, because he's an idiot.
---

TC this is the key point:

“If it [the US] forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea,” Trump says.

It's still ridiculous and insane, but not as insane as your title made it out to be...

She would've pardoned all child molesters/rapists, and started a war already. Remeber when that piece of shit laughed at a girl who was raped? Scum of the earth right there with literally no right to breathe the same air as you and I.

If tubby fuck hits anyone else first, China and the rest of the world wouldn't care if the US glassed that nation.

Or we just have Navy SEALs go in and wipe all their servers with a cloth. That'll show 'em.

Think you're splitting hairs. Result is still the same, and that is what he said. It is not a misrepresentation.

Wasn't misleading at all. Sounds to me like you just have a vendetta against TC stating facts. Maybe turn on the news or something idk.

It's a fact but it's misleading as fuck. TC even put a period at the end of the title as if that was the whole story, to lure people in. Learn to clickbait bro

Finally, a plan for North Korea.

I wouldn't call this a plan, anymore than I would call a drunk fratboy saying "I'm going to kick the shit out of you bro, hold me back" a military strategy.

If only obama were in office still so we could have another appology tour

Most people here understand just fine. There are a few people who just want to object and will twist my words any way they can to reaffirm their objection to themselves, and thereby their ego. I don't even know why they have an objection. He said that he will destroy North Korea. It's what he said. That's what I said he said. I said the same thing in my own words. Both statements are true. There is no objection to raise.

There is a pretty significant difference though. One argument is a "if X happens, then I will do Y". The other is "I am doing Y."

I think for all his bluster Trump's comment is not actually all that more of an escalation than what has been said before. Although talking in terms of "destroy" instead of the usually "respond with full military action" or whatever is quite scary.

So you agree that it says basically the same thing but for whatever reason you think I somehow still put it wrong, as if you didn't understand it or that it is misleading, when you agree with the premise of the message?
If you want to play coy or dense, then play with yourself. I'm not arguing with you anymore after this post. Think or post what you want. It doesn't change the truth in the message.

I agree with Trump. It might be necessary. Now I don't think Kim actually plans to follow though on his threats but if he actually does nuke a populated already he should be taken out.

It's not even close
You said
"Trump just announced at the UN that he will wipe out north Korea from Earth."
("if necessary", in topic after the period to clickbait)

Trump said:
“If it [the US] forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea”

That is a MASSIVE difference

The first is pretty much a declaration of war.

The second is a warning that he will not hesitate to go to war IF North Korea forces our hand.

Not even REMOTELY close

He's not saying that about any other country. Why not? because the threat is directed precisely and clearly at North Korea. And the end result is still the same.
