I have read many posts that feel the US is trying to use the media to drum up support for a war. Comparing this situation to the Iraq war, WMD's, fear mongering etc. This could be a very realistic possibility, but I have a somewhat different opinion.
You see I feel the media coverage of these event have been somewhat deflated. We have yet to hear word from the President; which I find unusual. Any every report, article, and official that comments on the status of things downplays North Korea's capabilitites.
They say the first form of mind control is repetition. Let us just examine the repetition of the message being delivered. North Koreas missiles can't reach mainland, they have yet to master the process of minaturization, belicosse rhetoric. All officials, and media outlets are using the term "bellicose rhetoric". The term itself seems rehearsed.
So the message being carried is "North Korea is full of hot air, primitive, ignorant, and basically building up the tensions for eventual aid, and alleviated sanctions".
So in response we are sending some pretty top of the line war machinery there to scare the boy who is crying wolf.
I don't know? It doesn't really add up for me. I can't imagine a leader of really any country would be dumb enough to spit in the face of the worlds greatest superpower. Threaten no less than doomsday, death, and despair to not only the US, but South Korea, and Japan.
My point is this. North Korea may be run by an asshole, but I don't think he is an idiotic, and suicidal asshole. Military assets are being moved and positioned all over the globe by numerous countries. Russia and China keep coming up. I fear this is a far more dire crisis than is being conveyed. I feel we are on a line of seeing a war to the likes the world has never seen. If someone sneezes wrong at this point this falls like abunch of dominoes in line. We can only pray that what we are seeing in the media is the iceberg, and not just the tip. Cause if any of us truly thought there was a possibility of nuclear war on our soil, people would stop going to work, and bunker up. I don't know the rumblings are just starting to concern me, and even more so the perpetual downplaying.
