Are we ramping up to war with North Korea?

North Korea is reportedly constructing new intercontinental ballistic missiles, despite reassurances from President Trump that the rogue nation is “no longer a nuclear threat.”

sorry, when the source is WaPo citing USIC sources I tend to yawn.

yawn at 100,000,000° Celsius, though.

Here's a Reuters source with a quote from Pompeo.

 

Asked at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing whether North Korea was still making bomb fuel, Pompeo responded to Democratic Senator Ed Markey by saying: “Yes, that’s correct ... Yes, they continue to produce fissile material.”

Pompeo declined to respond when asked whether North Korea was continuing to pursue submarine-launched ballistic missiles or whether its nuclear program was advancing generally.

He said he would be happy to answer the latter question if necessary in a classified setting, but suggested public statements on the issue would not help “a complex negotiation with a difficult adversary.”

You could have listened to his testimony... Or waited a week for the media to spin it into this story. 

 

This is why TDSers are so confused. They've outsourced their thinking to untrustworthy media outlets and members who have a track record of being wrong and / or outright lying.
