How can Congress not demand a private disclosure of Tweety's tax return in today's sabre rattling atmosphere, with Tweety seeming to get closer to drawing us into a war with North Korea.
Tweety seems more than willing to send THOUSANDS of American soldiers to their death, and allow South Korea to take the brunt of a nuclear attack, killing millions, to avoid impeachment based on his surrogates collaborating with Russia to fix our election.
"Nikki Haley on North Korea talks: US has 'been there, done that'"

"She said she is not speaking with North Korea's envoy to the UN, and instead plans to call on China and Russia to get North Korea to reverse course on its efforts to increase its nuclear capabilities and develop intercontinental ballistic missiles.
"We need other countries, specifically China and Russia, to step up and show us that they are as concerned with North Korea as we are," Haley said.
Asked if a preemptive strike would be on the table should China and Russia not put pressure on North Korea, Haley said she wouldn't speak in hypotheticals but also said all options were open."
So what is our best option? It is NOT war?! More war? More bombing? More dead innocents? When will the United States stop killing people for our "Democracy," for a pseudo-security feeling?
"A War Between the U.S. and China Would Be World War III (And Might Be Hard to Shut Off)"
Robert FarleyFebruary 2, 2017
"At the moment, however, we shouldn’t forget that China and the United States constitute the heart of one of the most productive economic regions the world has ever seen."
So it is my hope that greedy economic principles will keep our nation out of war.
"The expansion of Chinese interests and capabilities means that we can envision several different scenarios in which direct military conflict between China and the United States might begin. These still include a Taiwan scenario and North Korea scenario, but now also involve disputes in the East and South China Seas, as well as potential conflict with India along the Tibetan border."
Will there be a preemptive attack anywhere? Possibly US attacks North Korea, as it appears Tweety is inclined to do, then China attacks USA in retaliation.
"Whatever the trigger, the war does not begin with a US pre-emptive attack against Chinese fleet, air, and land-based installations. Although the US military would prefer to engage and destroy Chinese anti-access assets before they can target US planes, bases, and ships, it is extremely difficult to envisage a scenario in which the United States decides to pay the political costs associated with climbing the ladder of escalation.
Instead, the United States needs to prepare to absorb the first blow. This doesn’t necessarily mean that the U.S. Navy (USN) and U.S. Air Force (USAF) have to wait for Chinese missiles to rain down upon them, but the United States will almost certainly require some clear, public signal of Chinese intent to escalate to high-intensity, conventional military combat before it can begin engaging Chinese forces."
Will Tweety have any allies to help the US fight this war? Which NATO country still respects the USA? Which country has Tweety NOT insulted? I recognize NATO would probably say "bygones," and come to ur assistance, but they would do that grudgingly if they do help us.
"Will Trump’s Tough Approach to North Korea’s Kim Jong Un Work?"

"North Korea Policy: Hoping on a Hail Mary"

" . . . Beijing’s strategic calculus did change and it wanted to exert more pressure on Pyongyang’s behavior, its ability to do so is limited for two reasons.
First, China’s ability to influence Kim Jong Un’s behavior via diplomacy or some other form of soft power is very constrained. Chinese-North Korean relations have deteriorated under Kim Jong Un. He has eliminated several officials that were pro-China, most notably his uncle Jang Song Thaek, who was executed in December 2013. According to a February 2017 article in the New York Times, “some Chinese analysts say [China-North Korea relations] are at their lowest point since the founding of the North as a separate country after World War II.”
Second, North Korea’s nuclear weapons give it an insurance policy against regime change. If China is unable to influence Kim Jong Un, then removing him and installing a new leader may be the next “best” option for defusing the current spiral of tensions. Removing Kim in a targeted strike could succeed, but if a leadership vacuum leads to domestic instability then China could face other problems like a refugee crisis or the danger of “loose nukes.” A larger-scale regime change attempt, similar to the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, would be vulnerable to nuclear attacks. While China is developing ballistic missile defense capabilities, they are probably not sophisticated enough to offer an acceptable degree of protection against North Korean missiles."

"The North Korea problem is intractable because all of the players involved are unwilling to make the big political moves necessary to break the status quo. The United States maintains the unrealistic goal of denuclearization and advertises its willingness to engage in preemptive strikes against North Korea. "
