    In other words - one of media agencies assumed RF may be being ready to defend NK. A-and... Basically, that's it.

    A bit of a stretch to say 'russia will defend north korea', don't you think?

    Actually the transfer of military at border was known. The video referred in article literally been uploaded three days ago.


    So it's more of a speculation, than a leak.

    No, I can not. I have read too many history books and apparently played not enough modern shooters to find a global war being possible in any near future.

    This is why it's better to rely on real news.

    Russian troops were moved to the border to turn back Korean refugees in the event of war.
    China will defend N Korea, not Russia.

    Oh, the news are pretty real. The speculation is exxagerated. There pretty much are troops relocated to NK border. After all, government has to take precautions for case of crizis.

    China will defend countries that buy lots of their goods, not those who cost them enormously in the world marketplace of legitimacy, trade and politics.

    The troops to the Korean border, loud warnings and bomber incidences near Alaska, is all just a posture of siding with N Korea and Syria. Assad is smart in international ways, but not so the N. Korean. The posture is to boost the arrogance of the Syrian and N Korean regimes. Putin is trying to entice Syria to more aggressive behavior against the rebels, and N. Korea to more bellicose behavior, hoping to lure our foolishly egoistic leadership into reckless adventures. Our leadership is playing the national crisis cards to regain its lost prestige on the home front. Putin seems to have evaluated our president correctly. He is trying different ways to figure out a strategy that will succeed. Some where along the line, he figures, our leadership will fumble.

    China has its own game. It is more interested in keeping N Korean regime into check (not to topple it), in order not to have China's capitalistic progress disrupted. None of these two; Russia and China are on our side.

    In cut-throat politics countries like Russia and China you don't get to the top without being extremely smart, cunning and ruthless. Those leaders know that there are no winners in a Nuke war, and conventional wars in industrialized worlds need economic back bones. None of the two can afford a direct confrontation with the U.S.

    Russia always prefers proxy wars with us (Korea, Vietnam, Cuba). Once Putin gets our hand caught in a trap (like Vietnam and Korea wars), he will keep squeezing the trap. The torture will drain our vitality. He wants to weaken and discredit USA, to establish Russia as the uncontested bully of the world. He knows that the free world will never accept Russia as its leader, but he weakens our strength and prestige enough, he can apply his will over the world more freely, to satisfy Russia's long time lust for expansionism (remember the East Europe following the World War II?), and to achieve material gains.

    Certainly. I'm just referring to trucker's habit of getting his information from "alternative" sources. I've no doubt that Russia has positioned forces on the border; I'm sure it's either purely precautionary or linked to something that your government and intelligence know is or may be coming. I'd be surprised indeed if Russian forces tried to defend Kim's regime in the event of a new Korean war.

    Same there. Can't say we have much tying our countries.. Like... ...anything. Do not recall any military cooperation, economic dealings, so I think it's more because of the threats Kim was making lately. After all, if he tries to launch a nuclear missile or just a missile or anything - Vladivostok or other cities in our Far East may be in danger. I think if anything flies our way, regardless of where it got launched from, will be shot down.

    I hope Trump and Putin are just stringing Kissinger along until they work out a plan to make a real move against the globalists.

    If nothing else, it would be another round of liberal tear videos to laugh at.

    I don't like the possibility of a strike on NK mainly because things can escalate and spread quickly, and in ways we have no way of predicting.

    But, while the Russians are always ready to take advantage of any situation, especially a situation that could hurt the U.S., I think Russian leaders are more intelligent and pragmatic than anyone in North Korea. Why would the Russians put their asses on the line in order to protect a worthless little shytehole like NK. Why risk war with the U.S. over a country like NK with a GNP of about fifty dollars? Why risk losing Moscow, in order to protect the loud-mouthed fatboy with a bad haircut, and what is basically a toilet in the world of nations, NK? For these reasons, I think the Russians might posture and move forces around, but they probably would choose NOT to get involved, if the U.S. strikes NK.

    The Chinese, too, are rational people. They would probably be happy to supply the North Koreans with weapons, if there were a land war between the U.S. and North Korea — so THEY, the North Koreans, could fight the U.S. and be a pain in the ass forever. But would the Chinese be willing to see a large part of their own country destroyed in a war with the U.S. over a piece of shyte country like North Korea? That would be insane. And the Chinese are not insane. North Korea is a pain in the ass to pretty much everyone, including the Chinese. Let's hope their troops, those on the border, are just there to control refugees, and to clean up after the strike, if there is a strike.

    But, all that said, no one knows what would happen if we strike North Korea. No country in its right mind would want to get stuck in a land war in Korea. Hell, such a war could go on forever. And our hands are already full trying — not so successfully — to contain our stinking, endless, wars in the middle east. The wars that were supposed to be over in a few hours or a few days. The ones where people were supposed to greet our soldiers by throwing flowers at their feet. Remember those wars? Things got a bit out of our control there, eh?

    What I really wish, is that we had a rational, intelligent, stable, president. That is the one critically important element we lack. This is my biggest concern — in this crisis, and for the next four years. We need is a real president — one we can believe in and trust. All we have in trump, is an insecure, emotionally unstable, dolt who thinks life is a freaking reality show. Buckle your seatbelts.

    US will always be the leader of the free world, and it's been establishef and accepted as that. The other two, Russia and China, will be like the dogs chasing the passing vehicle on the road, barking and nipping but never catching.

    China probably doesn't want US patriot missiles right under their nose if NK falls, as is the Russians with the tiny border with NK. That's probably what may happen in the end.

    It blows my mind how many people think Russia and America are independent actors in a global theater - where anyone with power is on the same team, has money printed by the same bankers, vested trillions of theoretical dollars that are only as real as their control and partnerships, graduate from the same schools, attend the same operas, etc. etc.

    And these are the smart Americans. The dumb Americans couldn't tell you who fought in the Civil War.

    It is an elaborate popcorn flick for people who crap in gold toilets.

    I really want to believe the lone wolf billionaire is taking it to the others. But you could feel the change a month in. Spicer gave a press conference where he looked like he had been crying all night, and Info Wars suddenly went from a victory tone to a "better luck next time" tone.

    I don't blame them all for selling out. But there was really something there for a minute. Globalists were nervous for a reason. In the end, Trump was pushing a slogan, he is as vested as the rest, only a real nationalist could attack with a game plan of genuine change - and he's still better than Hillary.

    All we have left is photo bombing the popcorn flick. And we photo bombed the **** out of it. Good job, folks.

    No, it won't. China might move to occupy Nth Korea & replace the government with a more friendly one, but that isn't the same thing. Kim knows that letting Chinese troops on to his territory will have the same practical outcome as letting ROK/US troops on to its soil, though the latter would be vastly better for North Koreans.

    Russia isn't going to attack the US. They'll broker a deal to keep Syria and Russia will stand down as we remove that porky pig dictator.

    Nope, only when people peek in, read name of thread and dash to write their 100% relevant to ongoning thread opinion super-fast like a focken Sonic the hedgehog.

    ...seriously. A fken second message after OP explains what the article is, and couple more posts down is a proof of army movement being pretty much known to public. Thread is not that long, give it a couple minutes of time. :p
