North Korea vows 'powerful show of military strength' in defiance of US threats

The hermit kingdom has dragged the world to the brink of an all-out nuclear war this year after a series of reckless missile tests.

The US and its allies have since stepped up military drills on the Korean peninsula, while South Korea and Japan are now considering developing their own nuclear arsenals.

But tubby tyrant Kim Jong-un shows no signs of backing down and has vowed further military action.

A commentary from state propaganda rag Rodong Sinmun reads: "The present reality, in which the US aggression moves are getting evermore pronounced, requires bolstering up the self-reliant defence capability in quality and quantity.

"The struggle against the imperialists should depend on powerful military strength as it is accompanied by muscle-flexing." The North has repeatedly stressed its rights to nuclear weapons as a means of self-defence against the US.

It has previously tested a Hwasong-14 inter-continental ballistic missile (ICBM) and Hwasong-12 intermediate-range missile, both of which have the range to hit US territories.

The regime has also threatened to detonate a hydrogen bomb in the Pacific Ocean, a move which could trigger a third world war.

"The struggle against the imperialists should depend on powerful military strength as it is accompanied by muscle-flexing" Rodong Sinmun The statement adds: "Now that the dark clouds of nuclear war against the DPRK is constantly hanging over the Korean peninsula, it is the steadfast will of our Party and the DPRK government to defend the sovereignty and peace of the country and the dignity of the nation on the powerful self-reliant strength." The US is now readying for a massive missile defence drill after North Korea's threat to detonate an H-bomb last month.

Daily Star Online understands the Pentagon is readying the exercise at their base in the Reagan Test Site in the Pacific. US forces will run the drill from between October 29 and November 4 – testing their capabilities to shoot down missiles.

Warnings are in place for pilots urging them to stay away from the network of atolls around the Marshall Islands. US General James Mattis yesterday warned Kim of a massive military response if he crosses the line.

North Korea's so-called Juche Bird is considered the ultimate provocation against the US. The weapon would be a live-fire test of a nuclear warhead mounted on top of an ICBM.

How the States Can Save America - Duration: 5:42.

The federal government has become a lumbering giant.

With each passing year, it gets bigger and scarier.

In 1965, Washington was 761 billion dollars big.

In 2016... it was 3.5 trillion – five times the size.

If the government spent only the money it collected in taxes, that would be one thing.

But it always spends more — which is why we're $20 trillion dollars in debt.

That's 13 zeroes.

Count 'em: Thirteen.

But the crazy spending isn't even the worst of it.

Washington is involved in every part of our lives.

Think about anything you do, from driving your car to buying your groceries

to mowing your lawn.

Whatever it is — your education, your job, your health — the government has its hands

on your shoulder, if not on your throat.

As a congressman and senator for 14 years, I know this only too well.

So, how do we cut this giant down to size?

Is it even possible?

Yes.

And the amazing thing is, the answer is right in front of us.

The Founding Fathers, in their wisdom, foresaw the situation we find ourselves in today.

They wrote into the Constitution a way to repair Washington...not from the inside,

because that will never happen but from the outside, where it might.

It's right there in Article 5.

Most people are familiar with the first part: "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both

houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution..."

All 27 Amendments we have now started this way.

Congress proposed them and at least three-quarters of the states ratified them.

But is this the only way to amend the Constitution?

Well, let's read the next clause: It says that Congress, "…on the application of

the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments..."

Did you catch that?

Congress must call a convention to amend the Constitution if two-thirds of the states

— that's 34 states — demand it.

The time has come to demand it.

The time has come to propose amendments that will restore

meaningful limits on federal power and authority.

The time has come for a convention of states.

Here's how it would work: Once the 34 states call a convention, all 50 states send a delegate

to represent their interests.

For any constitutional amendments proposed, each state gets one vote.

And an amendment only passes out of the convention and to the states for ratification if a majority

of the states' delegates vote in the affirmative.

In this scenario, Congress has no say.

It is completely in the hands of the states, which means it's a whole lot closer

to the hands of the people.

We've never once amended the Constitution this way — but that doesn't mean we can't.

But, you might ask, doesn't this open the door to rewriting the entire Constitution?

Antonin Scalia, the late Supreme Court justice, acknowledged this risk, but regarded it as

a "minimal" and "reasonable" one.

Why?

Because to be ratified, a proposed amendment would need the approval of 38 states.

That's a high bar.

Thirty-eight states would never agree to something radical like abolishing freedom of speech.

"The Founders," Scalia said, "knew the Congress would be unwilling to give attention

to many issues the people are concerned with, particularly those involving restrictions

on the federal government's own power... [so] they provided the convention [of states]

as a remedy."

This should not be a partisan, left/right, Democrat/Republican issue.

This should be a "who controls your life" issue: you or the government?

Today, politicians can turn your life upside down on a whim, kind of like King George in 1775.

Being at the mercy of distant, disconnected rulers was why the American Revolution was

fought in the first place!

But we don't need a revolution.

We have Article Five.

So, what amendments might a Convention of States propose to limit Washington's power?

Term limits, for one.

No one should be in Congress for 20 or 30 years.

The only people who disagree have been in Congress for 20 or 30 years.

And how about a limit on taxes, spending and borrowing?

Since you began this video, the national debt has gone up $8.4 million dollars.

Here's one more idea: A constitutional amendment that Congress can't exempt itself

from the laws it passes — something it's done dozens of times, from insider trading to Obamacare.

Now, I don't believe a Convention of States will solve all of America's problems.

But the Founders put it in the Constitution for a reason.

They knew a time would come when Washington would become so big, and so intrusive,

that only we the people could cut it down to size.

That time is now.

Secretive US agency who monitor Kim Jong-un reveal HOW North Korea can BLITZ California - Duration: 2:52.

Secretive US agency who monitor Kim Jong-un reveal HOW North Korea can BLITZ California

has the capability to strike any state in the US according to a leading American commander who heads up a secretive military monitoring centre.

The man in charge of the National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC) revealed for the first time how officials who work there 24/7.

Engineers, photo experts, and intelligence analysts at the Ohio air base pour through satellite information for impending - and analyse the results from missile launches.

It comes amid escalating tensions on the Korean peninsula, as the US Defence Secretary yesterday admitted the chance of a was accelerating. .

Colonel Sean Larkin, who heads up the NASIC programme, told CBS that North Korea is well equipped to hit any state of the US mainland.

He said: The missile tests this summer have demonstrated the ability that they could reach the US. When asked if this would put any state in particular danger, the US military leader was unequivocal: All 48 states on the mainland. Colonel Larkin admitted that the if positioned in a standard trajectory, the missiles launched in July could have blitz California. .

In a shocking computer stimulation of the North Korean ICBM, researchers at NASIC revealed how is within touching distance of ordering a nuclear blast on the US west coast. Col.

Larkin revealed the only piece of the puzzle missing from a nuclear North Korea was a re-entry vehicle that could withstand the heat of plunging back into the planets atmosphere.

Researchers at NASIC believe North Korea is determined to develop such a re-entry vehicle, as revealed in photos of tests last year.

As a result, US President Donald Trump has admitted that unless the US can confirm whether or not Kim Jong-uns regime has developed such capabilities, he may order a.                .

United States nuclear bomber swoops on Pacific amid fears of war with North Korea - DAILY NEWS - Duration: 3:02.

US nuclear bomber swoops on Pacific amid fears of war with North Korea

A US nuclear bomber has flown a mission over the Pacific amid growing fears of war with

North Korea.

US Air Force commanders sent the B-2 warplane over the Pacific on Saturday in what was described

as a proof of its "commitment" to its allies in Asia.

North Korea has increasingly ramped up fears of nuclear war as it threatens to detonate

a nuclear bomb over the Pacific.

B-2 bombers are some of the most advanced aircraft in the US Air Force.

US Strategic Command said the missions "validate our always-ready global strike capability"

as the plane took off from Whiteman Air Force Base

It comes as US President Donald Trump readies to visit the Korean Peninsula next week.

B-2s cost near $2.1 billion (£1.6 billion) per aircraft and are long range planes designed

to get behind enemy lines.

Capable of flying on mission at 50,000 feet at speeds of nearly 630mph, the planes outmatch

anything in North Korea's arsenal.

Flown by two pilots, it can carry sixteen 1,100kg nuclear bombs along with a massive

arsenal of conventional weapons.

US Strategic Command said: "A B-2 Spirit from Whiteman Air Force Base conducted a long-range

mission to the Pacific Command area of responsibility this weekend.

"Long-range missions familiarize aircrew with air bases and operations in different geographic

combatant commands, enabling them to maintain a high state of readiness and proficiency."

"These missions validate our always-ready global strike capability and are a visible

demonstration of commitment to our allies and enhancing regional security."

B-2 bombers would play a huge role on the dawn of war with North Korea.

The planes would spearhead the strike using 14,000kg "bunker buster" bombs to annihilate

Kim's known nuclear bases, military experts at Stratfor said.

The US regularly shows its military might in the Pacific in a message to its enemies,

deploy three aircraft carriers to the Korean Peninsula last week.

Tensions have reached new heights this year as Trump is locked in a war of words with

Kim Jong-un.

North Korea has refused to give up nuclear weapons, and is now threatening to fire the

dreaded "Juche Bird".

U.S. military options on North Korea designed to keep peace: Mattis - Duration: 1:34.

Washington's defense chief has admitted that while the United States carries a big stick,...

its ultimate goal with North Korea is for the regime to fall in line without the need

for military action.

With Pyongyang staying relatively quiet for well over a month now,... it looks as though

tensions between the two sides are subsiding, at least for the time being.

Lee Unshin has more.

U.S. Secretary of Defense James Mattis says North Korea has accelerated the threat it

poses to its neighbors.

Following their annual Security Consultative Meeting in Seoul over the weekend, standing

side-by-side with South Korean Defense Minister Song Young-moo,... Mattis added that Washington

will never accept a nuclear North Korea, and regardless of what Pyongyang might try, it

is overmatched by the firepower and cohesiveness of the decades-old South Korea-U.S. alliance.

However, during his stay in Seoul, Mattis also stressed that military options are designed

to keep the peace, and Washington's goal is not war.

(Korean- ) "While President Trump has raised tensions

with his remarks,... it seems his Secretaries of State and Defense are seeking diplomacy,...

to ultimately find a solution to this problem with North Korea."

In September, when tensions were at their peak,... North Korea conducted its sixth nuclear

test and fired a ballistic missile over Japan.

However, more than 40 days have passed without provocation,... and experts say Pyongyang's

current strategy could be focused on peace ahead of President Trump's trip to Seoul next

week.

♦️ Massive military response' if North Korea Fires Nukes: US - Duration: 3:04.

Welcome to top daily breaking news.

Here is the new update for you.

The United States will never accept a nuclear-armed North Korea and any nuclear attack by Pyongyang

will be met with a massive military response, the US defence chief warned.

James Mattis made the comments in Seoul, South Korea, on Saturday at a joint press conference

with his counterpart Song Young-moo, a day after visiting the demilitarised zone that

has divided the two Koreas since the 1950-53 war on the peninsula.

Mattis said.

"Any use of nuclear weapons will be met with a massive military response.

"I can't imagine a condition under which the United States will accept North Korea as a

nuclear power…

Our combined effort is to deter that sort of threat or to have military options - many

different military options - that would realistically reduce that threat as low as possible.

And yes, we do have those options," the defence secretary said.

The North's official Rodong Sinmun newspaper accused the US and South Korea on Saturday

of "crazily beating the drum of confrontation".

Using the acronym for the country's official name, Democratic People's Republic of Korea,

it added "no force can ever check the strenuous advance of the DPRK … demonstrating its

dignity as a nuclear power".

In a commentaryon Friday, the official Korean Central News Agency warned the US, South Korea,

and Japan against "militarist ambition".

{articleGUID} The United States "eggs its junior allies on to come out as cannon fodder",

it said, adding the three countries "must clearly understand that retaliation of justice

will ensue the reckless military action".

Tensions on the divided peninsula have heightened in recent months after a flurry of intercontinental

ballistic missile (ICBM) tests and the North's sixth and most powerful nuclear detonation

last month.

The United States fears Pyongyang's nuclear capabilities will soon reach the point where

it can fire a nuclear-tipped ICBM that is able to hit the US mainland.

President Donald Trump has warned the US will "totally destroy" the communist country if

it attacks the United States or its allies in the Asia-Pacific region.

For its part, North Korea has condemned repeated US-South Korean military exercises off the

peninsula, which it says are a prelude to a military strike aimed at decapitating regime

of leader Kim Jong-un. Al Jazeera's Tony Birtley, reporting from Seoul, said despite Mattis'

strong language on Saturday, the Pentagon chief did stress diplomacy was the preferred

way forward.

"He is working in a highly tense situation now.

The ante has been upped considerably in the last few weeks," said Birtley.

"With President Trump visiting on November 7-8, some people believe that will be a catalyst

from some kind of response.

The foreign minister of North Korea has intimated there could be an atmospheric nuclear test

- maybe that could happen during President Trump's visit."

That is all from the news room.

WTO members question U.S. use of safeguard tool in washer, solar cases - Duration: 0:43.

The South Korean government is questioning the use of trade safeguards by the U.S. to

protect American companies making washing machines and solar panels.

According to Seoul's trade ministry,... the two safeguard cases sparked the most debate

during a meeting of the WTO Safeguards Committee on October 23rd.

Other members, including the EU, Australia, and Vietnam also agreed with Seoul's concerns.

Member countries noted that the U.S. was not traditionally a user of safeguard mechanisms.

They claimed that Washington failed to provide enough evidence that foreign imports were

causing damage big enough to meet the threshold outlined in the safeguard statute.
