    Here is a clue.....the Vinson wasn't even suppose to be headed to the Korean Peninsula. It was scheduled to be involved in some exercises with the Aussies down around Australia.

    What the Lame Stream media doesn't mention to much is that the Strike group turned around. Naturally they look like dipshits not knowing all that entails.

    Of course most of the Lame Stream media leans left and aren't exactly the brightest bulbs in the Box.

    What Vets should be doing is mocking the lame stream media and laughing at them for looking like mopes before the entire country.

    Well now THAAD is set up and ready to go in S. Korea. Which is what they wanted, a missile defense shield. If you have to go back to the 50's and 60's for when we lobbed missiles that way. Its a desperate reach.

    Lil Kim has lobbed Missiles towards Japan and S Korea. They don't care for that and want him to stop doing that.

    LMAO......9 days ago.


    Try, INS Jane, Defense News, SouthFront, Defense One, and STRATFOR.....then there is the Military Times and a host of US Navy sites.


    USS Carl Vinson carrier strike group changes course, heads to North Korea.....


    The commander of U.S. forces in the Pacific ordered the U.S. Navy’s Carl Vinson carrier strike group to change course and head towards the Korean Peninsula in response to North Korea’s advancing weapons tests.

    The change of direction was announced on Saturday by the U.S. Pacific Command after the ships set sail from Singapore.

    The ships were earlier scheduled to visit ports in Australia but were ordered to sail north in a move interpreted as a message to the Pyongyang regime.

    The deployment of the carrier strike group to the Korean Peninsula comes following a meeting between Trump and Chinese president Xi Jinping during which both leaders agreed that North Korea should not be allowed to advance its nuclear weapons program.......snip~

    I have a very fat smiling in my face about the trolls in Washington and this way I'm looking now. Looks for me that this administration has some serious communication problems ... but hey, Spicer taught us all that there are in Trump's world truth and alternative truth, eh?

    There is a significant amount of SK movies/TV shows flowing across into NK via DVDs, and there are a large number of NKs that have entered china and seen the truth. Are there True Believers of the kim jong family, sure, but the vast majority of the NKs are held in place not be fantacism, but the barrel of a gun.

    China have repeatedly stated they are very worried about a mass inflow of NK refugees if the kim jong un family falls; if the NKs were in thrall with their system they'd stay in their country, regardless of who was in power.

    I'm not sure where you got the idea the US isn't continuously launching missiles from Vandenberg in the direction of North Korea?

    https://www.airforcetimes.com/articles/air-force-test-launches-minuteman-missile-from-vandenberg


    "Air Force test-launches Minuteman missile from Vandenberg
    By: The Associated Press, February 9, 2017

    "VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. —
    The Air Force says an unarmed Minuteman 3 missile has been launched from California's central coast in the latest test of the intercontinental system.

    "The missile blasted off at 11:39 p.m. PDT Wednesday from Vandenberg Air Force Base northwest of Los Angeles..."

    "The Air Force says the missile carried test re-entry vehicles that headed for a target area 4,200 miles away to the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean.

    "The Air Force routinely uses Vandenberg to test Minuteman missiles from bases around the country.

    "This test involved personnel from Vandenberg's 576th Flight Test Squadron and the 91st Missile Wing, Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota."

    Seriously. There are loads of people here (troll accounts, perhaps?) defending putin, assad and iran; that there are those claiming the US is "occupying" SK is hardly shocking. There are facts, then there are people with agendas.

    That there are changes in NK is undisputed and such things you told happen, but you know that this more in major cities given and not in country side where majority lives? And even in the cities it can be punished hard if someone is captured by having such DVD and looking foreign TV (if technical possible).

    I had a longer reply to this comically bad mess, but the reply system here sucks, so I'll keep this short.

    Everything I said stands.

    The US spent generations training to fight a war in territory much closer to Korea than Iraq, so your obsession with terrain looks very desperate. The ROK has treined in this terrain for its entire existence, and they will be doing most of the fighting. The DPRK doesn't have enough fuel to train most of its troops properly, and the best are stationed around Pyongyang.

    Even with your abysmally bad and wildly skewed listing of equipment here it is clear how badly outmatched the DPRK is. It is a giant military museum for second rate gear - most of which was designed over 50 years ago.For some reason you left out most of the ROK's artillery (including over 3000 155mm pieces). Whatever the reason it reflects poorly on you. And why not show the disparity in air power? Too awkward?

    You really sound like a 16 year old who hasn't mastered google yet. Its a bit embarrassing.

    Indeed. That one is just a straight out communist troll. I guess that is a change of sorts from the Putinistas & the many varieties of right wing American troll. Not necessarily an improvement, but variety.

    Thank you for proving that you are not older as 10 maybe?

    So yes ... they are underdogs and not better equipped as with flint stone muskets and bows and spears at least in comparison to the US and SK and Japan, right? What comedy statement I must say ...

    Only to one point of the nonsense you wrote I will go in closer... Air Power:
    I clearly wrote that the NK Air force has no real chance, eh? But you miss the bunch of Air Defense weapons ... but I know ... majority no threat, not working and all museum stuff! Nice to hear that a 1970 Russian Air Defense museum stuff shot down over Serbia a F-117 ... same stuff that NK has multiple times more as Serbia, eh?

    So OK, I accept your fairy tale opinion that NK is chanceless and has only crap and untrained trolls in the Army.

    Well you didn't look so good with trying to push Breitbart my way. lol. And its clear you don't know much about Military, defense and Intel sites.

    Naturally the MS media with their agenda will attempt to point out mishaps. But that doesn't mean someone in the Military in Trump's Administration didn't know. Not even with holdovers from BO the Peep and his team causing as much confusion as they can.

    But hey.....As if Jooooosh Earnest didn't do the same for BO peep. lol

    You guys might want to know, the carrier group was on the wrong side of Malaysia at last sighting.
    Given Malaysia is North of Singapore, either the captain or Trump is a dick.

    The information you posted was so inaccurate that it was indeed comedy. What happened to all the Sth Korean artillery? Did Serbia get that too? Of course, Serbia got crushed without managing to kill a single American. Not the 'go to' example here I would have thought.

    If you can't even do a proper google search, can't get the basic facts straight and deliberately leave out key information this is just wasting my time. I'll leave you to troll in peace with the other kiddies.

    Let me know when it gets close to N Korea. The Marshall Islands aren't that close.


    [​IMG]


    Politically, the Marshall Islands is a presidential republic in free association with the United States, with the US providing defense, subsidies, and access to U.S. based agencies such as the FCC and the USPS. With few natural resources, the islands' wealth is based on a service economy, as well as some fishing and agriculture; aid from the United States represents a large percentage of the islands' gross domestic product. The country uses the United States dollar as its currency.

    Nuclear claims between the U.S. and the Marshall Islands are ongoing, and health effects from these nuclear tests linger.[27] Project 4.1 was a medical study conducted by the United States of those residents of the Bikini Atoll exposed to radioactive fallout. From 1956 to August 1998, at least $759 million was paid to the Marshallese Islanders in compensation for their exposure to U.S. nuclear weapon testing

    In 1979, the Government of the Marshall Islands was officially established and the country became self-governing.

    In 1986, the Compact of Free Association with the United States entered into force, granting the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) its sovereignty. The Compact provided for aid and U.S. defense of the islands in exchange for continued U.S. military use of the missile testing range at Kwajalein Atoll. The independence procedure was formally completed under international law in 1990, when the UN officially ended the Trusteeship status pursuant to Security Council Resolution 683......snip~

    It was a nice try with correlation and causation fallacy. It really was.....just not good enough.

    I know a lot of this stuff ... but I don't make the mistake you do obviously to believe directly every nonsense but investigate in all directions and not only a little bit and more in one or two.

    And that MSM is often BS I clearly told of course... but interesting when some here (not you) use one of them as good source for backing something and 1 week later in another topic the same MSM source is suddenly only rubbish.

    If you are not able to see realities that are uncomfortable with you kid brain, then believe the nonsense you want and don't waste my time with your fairy tale propaganda which is even not backed by any Google BS result!

    Inaccurate is only your blabbering here ... I gave clear fact digits and examples and you? Nothing with content and this is the next fact!

    You must be mistaken to think I don't check into other sources. Most of my thread will hold several links that I post up. Unlike the leftness. But don't worry, most of the leftness tries the Breitbart tactic. Their only problem is.....I rarely ever use them. Most of the time I use the lefts own sources against themselves.

    Like I mentioned, they're not the brightest bulbs in the box. Never have been.....and never will be.

    Russia moved Anti Aircraft and a S 400 Missile Launcher down to their Border near Vladivostok. ;)


    Russia Moves Military Forces To North Korean Border.....

    Russia has reportedly moved military forces into Vladivostok, a city not far from the border with North Korea as the world edges closer to war.

    According to the reports, a military convoy of eight surface-to-air missiles, part of Russian Air Defence, were on the move.

    The S400 anti-aircraft missiles were moved to Vladivostok, where Vladimir Putin already has a major navy base......snip~

    Abe says enough is enough.




    Japan Planning To Deploy Troops Amid North Korea Threats
    .....


    Amid growing tensions in the Korean Peninsula, Japan is contemplating the deployment of its Self-Defense Forces in case North Korea’s missiles land in its territorial waters, according to local reports Tuesday.

    There have been several instances when Pyongyang’s missiles have reportedly splashed into Japanese waters angering the East Asian nation. Tokyo has maintained its opposition to the North’s nuclear and missile progress.

    On Monday, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said his country will maintain high alert following the North’s failed ballistic missile launch Sunday.

    “Under the current stringent circumstances, we will maintain a high level of alert and take all possible measures,” Abe said at a House of Representatives committee meeting. “Through close cooperation with the United States, South Korea, China and Russia, Japan will strongly demand North Korea refrain from provocative acts and abandon its nuclear and missile programs.”....snip~
