NK and the US war ( Archived) (55)

why would you be?

America is not about to start a war against NK / Russia / China and its flunkies, so please relax.
Trump is merely spring cleaning the otherwise very dirty war mongering republican party.
He is doing so in his own confused manner but don't doubt to the best of his ability.
He is been hindered every step of the way by extreme right wing republican tea-party lunatics while dancing upon the world stage having little comprehension of the dependent arising's of his actions..he is managing a very sick country that's likely to implode, a country full of people acting like spoiled children spending US$ in a Mexican candy shop

this might be a really big worry

The US Navy's 4th accident this year is stirring concerns about hackers targeting US warships

The US Navy uses encrypted navigation systems that would be difficult to hack or deceive, and there’s no sign satellite communications were at fault in the McCain’s collision. But there is technology out there to misdirect GPS navigation — typically through a process known as “spoofing” that leaves the system thinking it is somewhere it’s not.

In late June, GPS signals for about 20 ships in the eastern Black Sea were manipulated, with navigation equipment on the ships, though seeming to be functioning correctly, saying the ships were located 20 miles inland. An attack on thousands of computers later that month also disrupted shipping around the world.



U.S. MILITARY COMMANDER WARNS ENEMIES NOT TO TEST FORCES AFTER USS JOHN MCCAIN CRASH

Monday's crash, which occurred off the coast of Singapore and appears to be deadly, follows three other incidents this year alone that have shaken confidence in the U.S.'s extensive military foothold in the region. In June, another Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, USS Fitzgerald, crashed into a Philippine container ship, killing seven U.S. sailors, and a month earlier, Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Lake Champlain struck a South Korean fishing boat, an incident that caused damage, but no injury. USS Antietam, also a Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser, ran aground in Tokyo Bay in February, seriously damaging the ship's propeller and spilling oil into Japanese waters.

Previous Collisions Involving U.S. Navy Vessels

June 17, 2017: Seven sailors were killed when the Fitzgerald

May 9, 2017: A 60- to 70-foot South Korean fishing boat collided with the Lake Champlain

Aug. 19, 2016: The Louisiana, a nuclear ballistic-missile submarine, and the Eagleview, a Military Sealift Command support vessel, collided

Nov. 20, 2014: The Amelia Earhart and the Walter S. Diehl collided

July 22, 2004: The John F. Kennedy, an aircraft carrier, and a dhow, a small traditional Arab sailing boat, collided in the Persian Gulf

Oh I think anything major is unlikely, that American ships could be remotely controlled is probably bit of a worry, however not surprising. China recently launched its own GPS system because American system can't be trusted (during Gulf War America modified GPS readings without telling) and if my memory serves me well America launched cyber attack on Iranian nuclear plant.
Its likely uncle sam is on steep learning curve

The guided-missile destroyer USS John S. McCain collided with a tanker in the Strait of Malacca off Singapore.

Ten sailors are believed to have perished, added to the seven who died in the June 17 collision of the USS Fitzgerald with a container ship.

Is this the fleet to counter NK missiles?

North Korea launched three ballistic missiles on Friday, one of which failed in flight, the U.S. Pacific Command said early Saturday.

What is the real power of NK?

its possible Trump has been sent by some mad dogs to ensure WW3 actually materializes to complete Ronald Regan's grand plan of 1984.

But many European countries including Germany aren't at all that keen on ww3 been played out in there backyard by either Russia or America, not keen at all. Russia alone has more nuclear bombs than the US of A, not sure how many China and Pakistan could field but by then nothing left to worry about anyway.

The French they usually loose anyway.
Australia the Australian Defence Force would be hard pressed to manage any serious internal strife never-lone Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Bangladesh, Pakistan, China, South Africa, few Arab and South American countries armed forces....USA and UK or not.


So yes commotion, smoke screen whatever pretty unlikely and my assessment Putin is at least half honest, a long way in front of any others
