    So….You mention this why? Are the “Joos” or Israel somehow responsible for North Korea and its nukes (?) or some other conspiracy? No love lost between Israel & North Korea but no real direct interaction. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel%E2%80%93North_Korea_relations

    Trumps “Look Over There!” Type-Distractions?

    Since Donald Trump first ran for president in 2016, Americans have been told to “take him seriously, but not literally” — to focus less on his policy pronouncements and more on the feelings behind them.

    From the outside…if you know where a missile is going to (or going to try to) hit…regardless of its speed…that’s 1/2 the battle to intercept a missile I’d assume, right?
