Korea Threatens Trump
Kim Jong-un’s nation strongly
condemned the “US imperialists” for launching two bombers in the Korean
peninsula and deploying a navy destroyer to float through the East Sea
of Korea over the last few weeks.The North insisted those actions were
provocative and displayed a show of aggression against their communist
state.
Insisting they have not “overlooked”
any of these provocations, in a statement, Pyongyang claimed “the danger
of a nuclear war has reached the height on the Korean peninsula”.The
statement published via Kim’s mouthpiece Rodong Sinmun added: “At a time
when the US imperialists’ nuclear strike means stage nuclear war drills
one after another in south Korea to attack the DPRK, the US infiltrated
the pirate ship flagged with the Stars and Stripes deep into the
economic waters of the DPRK for undisguised espionage act. This can
never be overlooked.
“Their dangerous military provocations that have been carried out in a multiple way
in the waters of the DPRK side in the East Sea of Korea prove that the
danger of a nuclear war has reached the height on the Korean
peninsula.“The army of the DPRK is whetting the sword of retaliation
sharper than before with a firm hold on the nuclear sword of justice to
cope with the US imperialists’ escalating aggression moves.”The state
went on to blast President Donald Trump for being “arrogant” and
launching a “pre-emptive nuclear strike at the DPRK”.
Hoping President Trump will not back
out of a potential war, North Korea added: “The US imperialist
warmongers should not run amuck, clearly mindful that their reckless
nuclear war hysteria will only bring the US destruction.”Pyongyang’s
chilling threat comes weeks after Pope Francis warned, the world would
be destroyed if North Korea and the US went to war.The leader of the
Catholic Church said, “humanity today would not be able to withstand” a
potential war between the two countries as “everything” could be
destroyed”.Appealing for peace, the 80-year-old said a third country
should mediate the “hot” dispute between the United States and North
Korea.
