He would unify all of Asia against the U.S.

It took a non-Jew trained by the Jews to discuss in black and white an example showing how these people train a feeble mind to articulate their doctrine of unrelenting fanatic belligerence while ignoring the consequences that are certain to materialize.

The individuals who are so trained keep pushing America into situations that induce it to act in such a way as to ultimately pay the price in life, limbs, treasure and standing in the world, and get nothing in return. They push the superpower to put on the same performance time after time, never to learn from the previous failed examples, and always believing that this time, America will hit the jackpot, thus offset all previous failures.

His name is John Bolton, a non-Jew who relied on his Jewish training to write: “The Military Options for North Korea,” an article that also came under the subtitle: “Some sort of strike is likely unavoidable unless China agrees to regime change in Pyongyang.” It was published on August 3, 2017 in the Wall Street Journal. As indicated in the title, John Bolton is advocating a fanatic level of belligerence while dismissing the consequences that are certain to materialize. Here is how he describes his plan:

“The U.S. could use airstrikes or special forces to decapitate North Korea's national command authority, sowing chaos, and then sweep in on the ground from South Korea to seize Pyongyang, nuclear assets, key military sites and other territory. All these scenarios pose dangers for South Korea, especially civilians in Seoul. Any military attack must therefore neutralize as much of the North's retaliatory capability as possible. The U.S. should obviously seek South Korea's agreement (and Japan's) before using force, but no foreign government can veto an action to protect Americans”.

The essence of the mentality that produces this kind of performance is encapsulated in the last sentence of that passage: “The U.S. should seek South Korea's and Japan's agreements before using force, but no foreign government can veto an American action.” It carries two messages: First, it is of the same genre as “all options are on the table,” which is the most serious threat you can make without using threatening words. Second, it is of the same genre as “you can't fault Israel for doing to the Palestinians what others have done before,” which is to claim that Israel has the right to commit any crime, and be legally protected – without using those words. Thus, what John Bolton has said in essence, is that America has the right to attack North Korea if it so decides whether or not its allies in the region – who might be obliterated as a consequence – will like it.

Let's now see what the action he recommends might do. Because most of us are not military tacticians, we can only compare the situation in the Asian theater with those that existed in the Middle East when America hit Iraq twice. On both occasions, it took America a month to station half a million troops and amass the necessary equipment, first in Saudi Arabia and then in Kuwait, before starting any military action. When the actual fighting began, it took another month of air bombardment to weaken Iraq's defenses before going after Saddam's armored divisions in the first war. The same level of effort was required in the second war before America could invade Iraq in search of the elusive WMDs.

Let's now assume the unlikely event that South Korea and Japan will accept the Bolton plan, and that South Korea will give the Americans a month to station half a million or more troops on its territory in preparation for the invasion of the North. What do you think the leaders of North Korea will do during that time? What do you think China will do? And what do you think Russia will do?

For the sake of talk, let's fool ourselves into believing that the leaders of those countries will sit back and let America do what it wants without any of them taking action. What could be the reason why they are doing nothing? There could be one of two reasons: They are so frightened of America, they froze. Or they feel so confident that North Korea is a hundred times mightier than Iraq ever was, and a thousand times better protected. They are gleeful what America is about to do to itself, and look forward to enjoying the spectacle of American boys and girls being cut by the guns of North Korea. Vietnam engendered the expression “Hamburger Hill.” North Korea may well engender the expression “Human blood sausage from America”.

But nothing like that is likely to happen because the smart money is betting that the moment America will speak seriously about preparing for the military option, the nations of the region will united against it and will tell it: go home Yankee, and stay home.
