"Adams Law of Slow-Moving Disasters"

Adams is drowning in self delusion. He is useless. And, he is already; he just doesn't know it.

Granted, America's future might not be this good, but we can always hope. For, without hope, what is there?

** 31-May-2019 World View: North Korea may have killed denuclearization negotiator as punishment

• Chief negotiator Kim Yong-chol (L) and Kim Hyok-chol, another
  negotiator

• Kim Yo-jong, the dictator's younger sister, along with Kim
  Song-hye, and Shin Hye-yong, the negotiators' female support
  group

According to the South Korean news service, Chosun Ilbo, North Korea's
child dictator Kim Jong-un has executed the North's chief negotiator,
as punishment for the failed February 28 summit president Donald
Trump.

Some analysts are pointing out that some previous reports of North
Korean executions have turned out not be true. The US is attempting
to verify whether that execution actually took place. In fact, there
are reports that the entire negotiating team, both men and women, have
been told to "lay low," although only chief negotiator Kim Yong-chol
is said to be dead.

There's no doubt that Kim's entire "charm offensive" strategy that
he's been following for the last year and a half completely crashed
and burned at the Hanoi summit. That was the moment when Kim was
going to diplomatically force Trump to agree to remove at least some
of the sanctions, with nothing in return. That would have been a
major global diplomatic victory for Kim, and would have enormously
humiliated Trump in the same way that Kim's father had humiliated
president George Bush. Instead, Trump refused, and instead demanded
that Kim at least take the simple step of providing a list of all the
nuclear weapons and ballistic missile development and test site. Kim
refused, and the Hanoi summit collapsed.

Instead, it was Kim that was enormously humiliated, and since then
it's been clear that Kim has no further strategy. Kim has simply
lost, and has nowhere to go.

The one place that Kim might have to go is to resume open testing of
nuclear weapons or long-range ballistic missiles. That would cause a
major international crisis. All signs are that China is opposed to
any such move by North Korea, because it would bring more American
forces into the region, and China would like fewer American forces.

It was just a week ago that North Korea announced that all
negotiations with the US were over, and the new reports would seem to
provide very strong confirmation of that.

According to the official North Korean Rodong Sinmun:

"Acting like one is revering the leader in front but
dreaming of something else when one turns around is an anti-party,
anti-revolutionary act that has thrown away the moral fidelity
toward the leader, and such people will not avoid the stern
judgment of the revolution.

There are traitors and turncoats who only memorize words of
loyalty toward the leader and even change according to the trend
of the time."

I guess the ultimate crime in North Korea is to dream of something
else except Kim Jong-un.

At any rate, there are two conclusions: (1) there is no expectation
that the UN and US sanctions targeting North Korea are going to be
lifted any time soon; and (2) North Korea's government is in total
chaos, and may do something desperate.

(2) North Korea's government is in total chaos, and may do something desperate.

"Chaos" might be a bit strong, don't you think? This guy kills key people all the time; why is this time different? NK is still supplied stuff by China because it's not in their interest to see the country collapse. The government doesn't care about the common Korean, so I doubt they are panicking. It's easy for the North Koreans to break the sanctions and get Chanel, Omega watches, and BMWs. I think KJU is just doing his usual house cleaning.

The biggest threat to South Korea is South Korean President Moon beam, not Kim Jung un. Moon is a clueless leftist liberal who has opened the country up to attack from the North. Worry about that.

Maybe you're right -- it's just another Friday -- kill a few people who
are insufficiently devoted, and then take the weekend off.

What I'm reacting to is the size of the disaster that Kim experienced
in Hanoi. He took a three-day train trip to Hanoi, and was batted
down by Trump, and then had to sit in the same train for three days
going back, stewing in his own fury.

That's bad enough, but executing the chief negotiator Kim Yong-chol is
a highly visible act internationally. The fact that Kim had to
execute someone so visible just worsens Kim's humiliation. All of
these things make him look weak to the Politburo, and make him
susceptible to a coup.

There's one more thing: He would have liked to show that he's as good
a leader as his father was, but now it turns out that his father was
better.

So maybe Kim will do something desperate to prove how great he is.

Kim Yong-chol has reported not been executed. He is a notorious army general who was supposedly behind the sinking of a South Korean warship in 2010. He was most likely a security threat to KJU. He has been sent to a labor camp.

North Korea is a void to most people, even the South Korean intelligence services.

I agree with most of what you write, and I think you might even be correct in regards to the panic in the North Korean government. The North is not a normal country.
