At some point over the last 15 days or so, Donald Trump has become the New George Bush.
I don’t really understand what triggered this. I’m pretty sure that it was not anything public, or I would have some understanding of it.
But this is where we are now: with the New George Bush.
President Trump announced an executive order Thursday to grant additional authority to the Treasury Department to enforce economic sanctions on North Korea and foreign companies and individuals that do business with the rogue nation in Northeast Asia.
The president also said that Chinese President Xi Jinping had ordered Chinese banks to cease conducting business with North Korean entities. Trump called the move “very bold” and “somewhat unexpected,” and he praised Xi.
“I must tell you this is a complete denuclearization of North Korea that we seek,” Trump said in brief public remarks during a meeting with the leaders of South Korea and Japan to discuss strategy to confront Pyongyang over its nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
Trump said the United States had been working on the North Korea problem for 25 years, but he asserted that previous administrations had “done nothing, which is why we are in the problem we are in today.”
He added that the order will give Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin the “discretion to target any foreign bank knowingly facilitating specific transactions tied to trade with North Korea.”
Trump’s announcement came as he has sought to rally international support for confronting dictator Kim Jong Un’s regime during four days of meetings here at the United Nations General Assembly. In a speech to the world body on Tuesday, Trump threatened to “totally destroy” the North if necessary and referred derisively to Kim as “rocket man.”
Trump said the new Treasury powers aim to cut off North Korean international trade and financing that support its weapons programs.
“For much too long, North Korea has been allowed to abuse the international financial system to provide funding,” he said.
In recent weeks, the U.N. Security Council has approved two rounds of economic sanctions but also left room for further penalties. For example, the sanctions put limits on the nation’s oil imports but did not impose a full embargo, as the United States has suggested it supports. The Trump administration has signaled it also wants a full ban on the practice of sending North Korean workers abroad for payments that largely go to the government in Pyongyang.
Sitting down with South Korean President Moon Jae-in before the trilateral discussion with Japan, Trump said the nations are “making a lot of progress.”
Moon praised Trump’s speech to the U.N., saying through a translator that “North Korea has continued to make provocations and this is extremely deplorable and this has angered both me and our people, but the U.S. has responded firmly and in a very good way.”
The Security Council had also applied tough new export penalties in August, and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Wednesday that there are signs those restrictions are having an economic effect.
“We have some indications that there are beginning to appear evidence of fuel shortages,” Tillerson said in a briefing for reporters. “And look, we knew that these sanctions were going to take some time to be felt because we knew the North Koreans…had basically stockpiled a lot of inventory early in the year when they saw the new administration coming in, in anticipation of things perhaps changing. So I think what we’re seeing is a combined effect of these inventories are now being exhausted, and the supply coming in has been reduced.”
This is really, really crazy.
We are used to nothing happening with North Korea. Because we’ve been talking about this “problem” forever, and nothing has ever happened. But Trump – that is, whoever is writing these policies for him – is now pushing things to such an extreme that something could happen.
Basically, what he is doing is implementing policies which not only could lead to starvation in North Korea, but also are going to make China really, really mad.
And for what reason?
The only possible reason can be just general war-mongering. There is no other potential logic behind these types of moves.
Just more global chaos creation.
And you see that the Jewish media is very happy about it. That is because the Jewish media is run by Jews, and they love this chaos.
