World War 3 threat: Donald Trump 'intends to KILL viscious animal' North Korea

Joseph M DeThomas warned the “gears of war are
beginning to grind inexorably” as he offered a chilling
insight into the escalating North Korea crisis.
The professor warned US President Donald Trump
shares “one common and dangerous trait” with the
man blamed for the the First World War - German
emperor Kaiser Wilhelm II.
Comparing Mr Trump to Kaiser Wilhelm II, Mr
DeThomas said both had a “ultra-nationalist bully-boy
style of diplomacy”.
And as the world teeters on the edge of World War 3,
Mr DeThomas said MrTrump intends to cause the
“extinction” of North Korea.

Kim Jong-un has issued threats of war against the US
He
said:
“He
has
cornered a vicious animal and told it he intends to kill
it and its young”.
Mr DeThomas, a professor of Practice in the School of
International Affairs of the Pennsylvania State
University, said major wars are not created with a
“single action” but more a “flow from a series of
decisions that drive participants towards a sense that
no other action but war can extricate them from their
predicament”.
He said: “Many historians now credit Kaiser Wilhelm II
of Germany’s July 2, 1914 telegram to the Austrian
government, which gave his ally a so-called blank
check to do whatever it wished in the crisis with
Serbia, as the fatal step that set the machinery
inexorably in motion for the catastrophe of World War
I.
“Trump shares one common and dangerous trait with
the Kaiser: both were amateur militarists given to
public bluster and adopting an ultra-nationalist bully-
boy style of diplomacy, in part to cover up vast
weaknesses in their own characters and their lack of
understanding of their countries’ true strengths.
The North Korean dictator was described as a 'rocket
man on a suicide mission'
“But neither of these individuals intended to unleash
catastrophe.”
But the professor warned crackpot dictator Kim Jong-
un his troops could be “successfully disarmed “ and
“paralysed in its command and control” by a “well-
planned nuclear strike drawing on US strategic
forces”.
And this is because Mr Trump “blindly” sees himself
as a “heroic figure standing up to mad tyrant using
rhetoric, economic pressure and, if necessary, military
force to break him”.
Writing for 38 North, a Washington-based thinktank
monitoring North Korea, Mr DeThomas said: “Mr Trump
does not see because he does not understand the vast
risks he is running for his own citizens, or millions of
residents of East Asia.
Donald Trump is continuing his war of words with
North Korea
“Any error or misstep in this highly unstable strategic
environment could ignite a nuclear first strike.
“We are not yet at the point of war, but the gears of
war are beginning to grind inexorably towards it. The
lamps are going out in Asia.”
And Mr DeThomas, who served as US Ambassador to
Estonia from 2001 to 2004, spent 29 years as a
member of the US Foreign Service and 32 years in the
US Department of State, warned Mr Trump’s recent
backing of sanctions against North Korea will only
“pour gasoline on the fire he set in New York”.
The US President sparked controversy when he used
his inaugural United Nations address to mock the
North Korean dictator as a “rocket man on a suicide
mission for himself and his regime”.

Mr DeThomas said Mr Trump’s confidence could be
because he believes “behind the scenes Pyongyang is
bluffing and is prepared to walk back from the
precipice” .
He said: “It would not be the first time Pyongyang
changed course when it felt war was getting close.”
The North Korean expert warned “denuclearising North
Korea is a worthy goal”, it is “not worthy of a nuclear
war in East Asia -even one the US would win”.
He said: “There are less appealing but acceptable
alternatives that would leave US alliances intact and
allow the natural advantages of the US and its allies to
erode North Korea’s hostility over time.”
It comes as Pyongyang accused the US of declaring
war on Kim Jong-un's rogue state and vowed to strike
US bombers in airspace outside North Korea.
The White House branded the accusation "absurd" and
denied declaring war on North Korea hours after
admitting Mr Trump will have options on how to deal
with Pyongyang presented to him if provocations
continue.
