So just wanted to let the members know.<\/p>\n<p>I know that some are going to Addis, but we wanted to make sure that we will do that on Monday when we can get those negotiations finished. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221; slapped everyone in the face&#8221; is not mincing words at all.<\/p>\n<p>Fatty Kim da T&#8217;ird is itching for a fight. As Amb. Haley says, he wants a war. That much is as clear as a bell. \u00a0Anyone who thinks that, because I point and snicker at him, I don&#8217;t take him seriously, is badly mistaken.<\/p>\n<p>I grew up under the constant implied threat of nuclear war with Red China and the Soviet Union. Our house was barely 10 miles from ground zero in a target city, with a heavy equipment factory, a grain processing plant, an electronics factory, a tire factory and a sizable railyard. \u00a0Those are still in place today, as well as an additional grain processing plant. Both of these companies process corn and soybeans for the fuels industry. In addition to these, the \u00a0hospital where my mother worked is now a major medical teaching hospital, and the university that I graduated from has expanded its curriculum exponentially into current events, as well as adding two new master&#8217;s degree programs some time back.<\/p>\n<p>Any large city was a target city, whether it was New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, or Washington, DC, and whether or not it was near a military base. Pensacola, FL, was and still is home to Navy tech schools and ships, and a naval aviation training command. \u00a0It was a target city then and still is today.<\/p>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s far past time we got (Vlad Putin) Russia and (Xi Jinping) China, along with Japan, France, Israel and South Korea, into the White House for another kitchen table conference. And maybe it&#8217;s time someone put the screws to Iran, once and for all. \u00a0Vlad Putin (smooches) has stated that sanctions do not work on North Korea. \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/world\/850109\/north-korea-news-latest-war-usa-trump-nuclear-bomb-missile-test-launch-south\">http:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/world\/850109\/north-korea-news-latest-war-usa-trump-nuclear-bomb-missile-test-launch-south<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I miss the Cold War more than I thought I would.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 9\/3\/2017, an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council was requested by he United States, &hellip; <a title=\"A Slap In the Face\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=74500\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">A Slap In the Face<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":653,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[214,241,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-74500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-north-korea","category-nukes","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/653"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=74500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74500\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=74500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=74500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=74500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
