While Dems chase Russian trolls...real threats go unchallenged

While Democrats are busy flinging Russia conspiracy theories and attributing near-god-like powers to a small cadre of "trolls," real hostile actors, like North Korea, continue their crimes against humanity unfettered.

In addtition to their looming nuclear threat force, NK's APT hacking group has expanded to global threat status. Unlike the Russian trolls, these hackers are responsible for billions in damages yearly and the theft of sensitive or classified materials.

Meanwhile, Dems give North Korea a pass. In my opinion, they do this because they support socialism/communism and can't afford another example of their failed ideology. Either way, they are (today and over the past 20 years) setting us up for a major confrontation with NK this spring, as a recent article on Fox News examined.

It is time for the United States to stand up to the hostile North Korean threat force and eliminate it before it can strike our homeland.

Help me out here. When was the last time an American was killed by a North Korean? Seems to me we have far more to fear from our fellow Americans than any North Korean. Well unless you are a right winger and therefore afraid of your own shadow.

"Herp derp! I know what's a great idea! Let's spread partisan division in order to get people to listen to me about my concerns for an external threat! That will totally do wonders to get a majority of people to address or be concerned for my concerns"

That's pretty much what I read when I read your OP.

Not only that, but the NorthKorean project is a crime against humanity that we have allowed to continue for far too long. It’s time to liberate the North Korean people.

That kid who went over there last year.

I agree with your sentiment, but those who don’t will invoke the kids name.

LOL. Partisan division? That's been your staple for years! How dare he point out an obvious 'difference'. Your 'indignation' accents the truth of it.

I laughed at that one.

Yes. Attacking Democrats about Russian concerns to talk about North Korea is fermenting partisan division. I'm glad that you are now up to speed with the class.

Look at them try any pathetic illogical distraction in their attempt to distract from the fact that Donald J. Trump did willfully & knowingly conspire with a hostile foreign power to subvert Americas electoral process for personal financial & political gain.

Wait for their Reichstag's fire, it's only a matter of time as they become desperate & move to active measures of distraction to mitigate their derp fuhrers treasonous acts.

NK is a joke much like this thread.

Otto Warmbier.

You're welcome.

I am laughing that the usual suspects dismissing the op.

You have no effing idea just as to WHO has been waging cyber warfare against the American public.

For all YOU know it could be :

1. Never Trump

2. No Ko.

3. China.

4. Iran

5. Syria for payback meddling over there.

The only evidence that's been provided is ip address's.

Any script kiddie can do that much.

I guess we should not have fought the nazis because they didn't kill any Americans, Canadians, etc.

50,000+ American soldiers lost their lives in Korea because North Korea invaded South Korea. That's not a small number.

Doing the right thing is no longer popular.

It has to go through a political filter and be determined by the amount of Likes on social media before attempting.

Let them be. Most of the world asks who appointed us as the global police? Let someone else come to the rescue of the oppressed. Don't you know Germany or France will jump right in, take some heat, put their lives on the line and free those people? Oh, wait, no, those and other countries just like to bitch about the USA. They wouldn't want to upset anyone.

I guess no one will rescue the North Korean people. China and Russia like it just the way it is.

Exactly right. They care little about the North Koreans, at least until they are personally, that is selfishly, affected in some way or another.

It's a sad state of affairs when the world allows atrocities and totalitarianism to continue, in this case for 70 years. History will frown on them.

Exactly right and it makes you wonder why it's left to the US to solve. Amazing how other countries think it's okay to let people live that way. There's something about US culture that makes us want to help people. It isn't always about regime change or exploitation of oil, etc.

Here's a quick fix: mandatory geolocation for every social media post.

There, no more Russian trolls.

Now, let's talk about North Korea (and while we're at it, let's talk about our own 60+ year history of meddling in other countries elections).
