This is eactly like the Iraq war build-up the Republicans and the news media did

before we started the second Iraq war. Either North Korea backs down or this nut is going to have us in another war
and the other nut in N. Korea will use nukes if we don't do it first. It's crazy I am afraid to turn the news on anymore. This morning
that is all they are talking about. We have barely heard anything from North Korea for the last 8 years, now all of a sudden it is an emergency we have to take care of. Anyone with half a brain knows all this is about is to deflect the Russia investigation and the news media is playing along with it again.

Ratings, buzzwords, stories of courage, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

WAR it's got it all! Just listen to the Talking Heads (the TV headsets, not the band...but then again listen to the band and NOT the idiots on the TV) gush over beautiful bombs.
America's football mentality.
