Another one, is that China is going to join the US in smacking Little un down. I say different, they have a defense pack and they will honor it. People claim that the Chinese tank's assembled on the Chinese/North Korean border are the Chinese preparing for the border crossing of refugee's. No tank's are not used one on one for people, bullet's are.Tank's are used for shelling millitary instilation's and hardwear and it won't be North Korean.
This is a proxy war with China. North Korea is simply the meat in the sandwhich.North Korea is the one thing that stand's between American bases and China's border. It is no different to the missle defense (cough) shield on the border of Russia.
Sanction's are just a pretty word for bribes, black mail and the arm twisting of a Soveriegn's free will.In any other form it is a criminal act and is in it's self a form of warfare.

As for your prediction, I hope you are wrong, but wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if you are 100% correct.
Unfortunately the Banksters have infilltrated China and once again the only winners from any conflict will be the the people who have been pulling the strings during every conflict since the Napoleanic war.

Actually if history is anything to go by and there is a war in North Korea it will not end in WWIII the same as the last one didn't.
It will end with us defeating NK and a cease-fire being called.

It isn't just the tensions in NK that has led me to believe we are close to seeing WWIII kicking off. There are tensions in Syria and Iran, for which the Russians seem to be twitchy about.
NK could be the spark though!!
Electric, electric, electric! The way people bandy that word about nowadays, you'd think electricity is the new salvation of mankind. That attitude is particularly "on the wire" this week as the Old Town by the Sea hurtles relentlessly from the comfortably familiar 19th century into the unknown landscape of the 20th.
This writer, however, urges caution as we contemplate the coming Electric Age, admonishing readers not to entertain Utopian flights of fancy. Certainly this modern miracle has its usefulness, but for every labor-saving benefit, electricity brings us -- something, we fear, is lost in the trade.
We have long acknowledged the value of the telegraph, bringing us speedy long distance communication, but bringing with it, an unsightly army of poles and wires that pollute the view of our historic city. Now comes the electric telephone, which offers promise. It promises, detractors fear, to strike at the very sociability of our community. People who would normally seek out each other's company, may now speak over a wire, and so far, with minimal fidelity. Still, the prophets (or should we say "profits") tell us that some two million telephone receivers may be in use by this time next year in 1901. Whether all these gentle people truly have something worthy to say, remains a mystery.
Electricity is the new Jezebel, seducing our young men into the arms of immorality
And the cost? The speedy 20th century will certainly take its toll on our ancient New Hampshire city. With the metropolis of Boston just an hour away by train, can we hope to keep our children from seeking dangerous new pastures? And what of the electric current flowing through our homes and streets? Despite the vaunted medical benefits of electrotherapy, can we be assured of its true safety? The untapped electrical fluid leaking from these outlets and wires, we are told, may cause serious bodily damage and – with prolonged exposure – possibly death. We are certainly gaining momentum in this Modern Day, but can anyone tell us where we are headed?
Not so lucky was our beloved historian Miss Sarah Haven Foster who was killed this year while crossing at the corner of Middle Street and Richards Avenue. She was struck by an electric trolley. In her 70s, the author of our well known "Guide to Portsmouth" was rushed to the cottage hospital where she died of her injuries -- the first victim of 20th century technology in the state of New Hampshire – but we predict, far from the last.
If you believe the likes of Mr. Jules Verne and the proponents of the upcoming 1900 World's Fair -- electricity may someday replace the coal furnace, eliminate the icebox, eradicate the plow, outstrip the printing press, modernize the outhouse, and put the cart horse permanently out to pasture. But will we become the masters of the lightning or its slaves? What will we do with endless hours of sunlight and ceaseless days of leisure? What will we build with the power of the gods at our fingertips?
