China warns of N. Korea conflict 'at any moment'

A conflict over North Korea could break out "at any moment", China said Friday, warning there would be no winner in any war as tensions soar with the United States.

The sharp language came after US President Donald Trump said the North Korea problem "will be taken care of", as speculation mounts the reclusive state could be preparing another nuclear or missile test.

Trump has sent an aircraft carrier-led strike group to the Korean peninsula to press his point, one of a series of measures that indicate his willingness to shake up foreign policy strategy.

"Lately, tensions have risen... and one has the feeling that a conflict could break out at any moment," Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi said.

1. China is correct.

There will be no winner.

[MBS]

5. Right you are. n/t

[Jim__]

2. Unfortunately, Trump is just about as big a fool as Kim Jong-un. - n/t

[underpants]

3. That's not fair. Un fires missiles and makes threats to appease his people

while Trump....uh....damn.

[Ghost Dog]

10. On what evidence do you base your assertion

that Kim is a fool?

[madokie]

24. So right you are

except he may be a bigger fool if that's possible

[HopeAgain]

4. What will happen here in the U.S. when Seoul or Tokyo is nuked?

Are we going to get all blood thirsty, post-9/11 style, and get all excited about sending more Americans to their deaths unnecessarily and unnecessarily destabilize another whole region of the world?

Or is America going to blame Trump and his false bravado for blindly throwing the entire pacific region into chaos? Lay the horror of it all directly at his feet and the feet of Congress who stood by and allowed it?

I'm afraid it will be the former.

[OnlinePoker]

6. Of course it will be the former

America needs a bogie man and Kim fits the bill perfectly. The media will blast 24/7 how his aggression (nuclear or non) needs to be avenged and the lines will start forming at the recruiting centers again.

[hatrack]

11. Like the lines at recruiting centers after 9/11?

Right . . .

[VigilantG]

8. My sentiments exactly

How can Congress just idly sit back and watch this happen? Pelosi wanted them to stay for a vote, but "no", too many important things to do than care what happens to our US forces, the South Koreas, Japan and Neighboring region.
Madman Little Hands needs to be stopped. His chaotic, erratic, inflammatory, ignorant ways must end. Twitter...disable his account as a matter of National Security please, because apparently no one else is willing to stand up to this buffoon.

[AtheistCrusader]

16. Are you new here?

On 9/11 fifteen Saudi's, two UAE, one Lebanese, and one Egyptian flew planes into the world trade center, so we leveled Iraq.

OF COURSE we're going to get blood-thirsty. This is, apparently, our lot in life.

[Thomas Hurt]

7. and our Dear Leader

is in Mar a Lago looking into those health code violations.

[bluestarone]

9. it's working!

Not talking about Russia much anymore right? This is how Trump the DUMP stops stories and starts his own stories (control the press)

[Turbineguy]

12. Actually, this morning CNN

did a nice segment on the MOAB attack on IS and followed immediately with the Russian Investigation. Of course, CNN is part of the fake news consortium. Not like Fox News.

[Botany]

13. Why I am scared ... the Cuban missile crisis vs now

JFK, Fidel Castro, and Nikita Khrushchev were smart and not batshit crazy
the same things can't be said for Tump and Kim Jong Un.

[Mad-in-Mo]

14. I'm terrified. The man-baby egotists will do anything to

stroke their egos. Beautiful babies don't count in this mess. And with Congress being "on vacation" no one is around to rein him in. GAH

[Botany]

15. We could have a war in Korea by this weekend.

For over 65 years we have had some sort of peace in Korea but in
under 100 days Trump might have stopped that and started a war.

[Mad-in-Mo]

17. Agreed. What a freaking mess.

[Botany]

18. N. Korea did not build an A Bomb until w bush quit talking to them and this .....

.... problem w/N Korea can be solved w/diplomacy and war is not the only
answer. But Trump feels the Russia investigation closing in on him and so
he wants to start some shit.

During the cold war we had a hot line between the US and Russia to stop
any chance of starting WW III by mistake and why we can't talk now is beyond
me.

19. Dump is pushing the Chinese to invade.

I have a feeling there was an underhanded deal made with Xi at their meeting in FL. It's a gamble that should not be taken. Millions may die because of it.

[bluestarone]

23. yea for sure (you give me Korea and)

I give you your island!!!

[Vinca]

20. Dear Leader has dropped the little bombs and the big bomb so it stands to reason he's

itching to use a nuke. By the way, I mean our "Dear Leader," not theirs.

[roamer65]

21. Dumpenfuhrer.

[bluestarone]

22. And his (Trump) followers say

We love him he's the best Can't wait for the big one (bunch of assholes they are)
