KIM AND TRUMP TO MEET? JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS A INTERESTING
MONTH.
The new
Emperor comes to power in China. The Tsar announces his “Super Weapons”. The future
King of Saudi pays a visit to the Archbishop of Canterbury. The Little Fat Guy,
who is rumored to be very….very… let us say…..unhealthy, shocks the world with
a request to sit with the Donald! To the agencies who are asked, “what does it
mean” and “ what should we do”, the overtime must be making the analyst happy! I
must admit, the standing question of, “what does it mean”, is an important one?
The bigger question is, who is asking the question?
From the Eyes of the Dragon:
Never…..ever
forget what I’ve been saying for several years now. The ultimate goal for China
is the inability for the US to control the events in the Pacific. Forget the South
China Seas. The dreams of the Dragon are much larger now. The US, military
footprint in South Korea has been a major obstacle to the Master Plan of China
for decades. For a long period of time, the purpose of North Korea was to
threaten the US with a continuation of the Korean War. A war that few in the US
wanted to relive. North Korea bought time for China to grow. It was the rabid dog
on a chain only the Chinese held. The time was going to come, if things worked
out the way China planned, when a rabid dog on a short chain was no longer
needed. That time is very…..very….close if not already here. Perhaps if that
time is now here, the message to the Little Fat Guy was clear. “ start talking
or your replacement will”! A South Korea that has begun the process of working
with North Korea is the prelude to asking the US military to leave, or greatly
reduce its capabilities. In the end, there was two ways to bet the US to pull
out of South Korea, war or peace. This call for a meeting is what? A prelude to
peace or a prelude to war? I bet the Dragon knows.
From the Eyes of the Tsar:
North Korea may be China’s rabid
dog, but the Tsar never misses an opportunity to take advantage of events
created by others. Was there a top-secret meeting between the new Emperor and
the Tsar of this shocking announcement? I bet not. Do the Russians realize the
desires of China in the Pacific? Absolutely. Are those desires the same as Moscow’s?
No! Once again, when it’s all said and done……………at the end of the day…………….who
does Moscow truly fear? If the Little Fat Guy is to visit with The Donald, then
what does that mean to the Tsar? Is there a way to leverage this event? How can
a positive for Russia be achieved? Casting the US military in a bad light is
always a desired goal. The process, or at least the appearance of such, of the
two Koreas lowering their guard coupled with a US military that is unwilling to
leave, would be to Moscow’s advantage. Casting the US as the “Problem” that’s
an even greater prize from this pending meeting. Can the Tsar influence that
takes place at this meeting? Remember, it’s the Dragon’s show and how much does
Moscow truly trust the Dragon?
From the Eyes of The Donald:
To the
guy in the White House who is rumored to not always attend the morning National
Security Briefings and trust me, they are not always worthy of attendance,
the news of this proposed meeting was not “news”. The idea that the North may
wish a sit-down had been brewing for the past several months and The Donald has
known it. As a businessman, he knows all too well the art of playing it cool
when he has competitor, and that is how he looks at his enemies, on the ropes!
The pressure on China to real in the Little Fat Guy has been known from day one
of the Trump Presidency. The rabid dog’s owner has been told, get a handle on your
pet or I will kill it! Now, if the Chinese believed this threat or not is not
the point. The point is, they never take their eye of the ball and in this case
the ball is the Pacific. In the middle of all the talk of a pending trade war,
the idea of the two Koreas beginning the process of reunification could easily
such the wind out of the media’s sails. The new shiny object the press would
focus on would no longer be tariffs. Did I say the word “reunification”? Is
that truly what the US desires? A unified Korea? A unified Korea that would see
China as the most important partner in the rebuilding of “Koreas” economic status
in the world? Just how much money would China spend on making this
reunification dream come true? Just how much would they be willing to pay to see
the South and North Korean youth marching in the streets, demanding the US
military go home? So, what is the actual discussion inside the White House?
Just what is the US looking for in these pending talks? The denuclearization of
North Korea? Is that truly that hard to achieve? Ask South Africa or the
Ukraine. “I want you to get rid of your nuclear weapons program”! “ OK”! then
what? What is the real goal of the Dragon? China may be about to show the US an
age-old adage. Be careful what you ask for!
