TILLERSON’S REMARKS ON NORTH KOREAN LATEST MISSILE TEST. ARE THEY
REALLY THAT ODD?
Well, once again, CNN is foaming at the mouth over the
actions of the Team Trump! ‘ We have no further comment’! JUST 23 WORDS….JUST
23 WORDS!!!! CNN was perplexed! They were finding this so very “odd”! What is that Trump Team doing now? It seems,
according to CNN, if a member of the Trump Team walks out the door, open’s
their mouth or looks across the room, something is not right! Something is
going to worry the world!
Odd words or move one?
Did the little fat guy plan this missile test to send a
reminder to Team Trump as it prepares to meet the Dragon for the first time? Absolutely!
Even the Western media was smart enough to figure that one out. Same old same
old! A pending meeting preempted by yet another statement or “test”! Nothing
new here…nothing to see…..keep walking folks! But wait! The US Secretary of
State said something “odd”! Why…….he said, basically, nothing new here folks……keep
walking! Now, granted, he could have had his staff draft the same old worn out
comments the US Department of State has been making since 1994 when the Team
Clinton started this North Korean, nuclear train wreck. Yep, it’s Billy Boy’s
mess. Look at my post from Sep 16 of
2016. Twenty two years ago, Bill kicked the can and the West has been
kicking it since.
What Tillerson did was, in my opinion, the first move in the
discussion with the Dragon over their little out of control fat man. The first
face to face meeting with the Dragon, unless the Democrats find out Trump spoke
to the Chinese as well, will be all about North Korea. “Deal with North Korea
and the issues between us on trade are all workable”. That’s my bet on what the
real message is going to be. Now, if we accept this is all just a ploy, then
how is it that CNN nearly passed out over Tillerson’s comment? Did the Dragon
or the Tsar or South Korea or Japan find the “nothing further to say” statement
“odd”? Do they all understand that words on the world stage are nothing more
than scene setters before the doors close and real deals are spoken of? Outfits
like CNN may hate Trump and they may openly show it, much like FOX did for the
previous administration, but they are professional enough to know how the game
is played. So, why? Why inflame the event? Why take the risk of pushing this
pending meeting in the wrong direction? Does keeping up the hysteria over Team
Trump…..trump being a craftsman at your trade? Yes….yes it does! No surprise
here, but the US and most of the world, no longer has a true neutral media
process.
The meeting:
For all the hysteria over the “odd” statement, the real
story is the meeting itself. Yes, North
Korea will be the center piece, the five meter target, of the discussion, but
the larger issues between the US and it’s Allies are going to have to be
addressed. The South China Seas. That is one that will get a great deal of
attention. How willing is the Dragon to discuss this topic? Will the Dragon use
the crazy little fat man as the bargaining chip for the issue of the South
China Seas? Will the US take the bait? What bait does the US have on the end of
its hook? Look. The media has missed the boat on this meeting and why should
anyone be surprised? The fact that The Donald will meet Xi before he meets the
Tsar tells you everything you may want to know about White House priorities. The
fact the media was hardly mentioning this meeting prior to the “odd” statement
tells you just how out of the loop, how unprofessional they have become. There
was a time this meeting would have been as important to the Western Press as
any event held this year. Here is the problem, the US media and most Western
partners have become nothing more than Yellow Journalism in the technical
clothing of the 21st Century. They are no longer journalistic in their
actions. Campus rags producing slanted dogma, that is what most of them mirror
now! The good news is, Trump or his family or one of his staff members will
step outside and say a few words or shake hands with someone or even just be
seen and the likes of CNN will once again foam at the mouth, rally the so
called “experts” and blast away at what the US has become. Important discussions
are going to take place in the next few days. Agreements may or may not be
made. The fate of Japan and our Pacific Allies may be in the balance, but will
the media really pay attention? Wait…what……. Did someone say Donald Trump’s Dog
Groomer had traveled to Moscow two years ago? Quick…get the team together it’s
time to bash the President.
My bet is, the Dragon has a plan for this meeting and if you
want to figure out what took place, you are going to have to read Asia Times.
