RETHINKING: From Texas to North Korea



Dear Friends:

In the last two weeks, the Harvey’s landfall in the Gulf Coast and the following flooding of the Houston area were the center of the news.

President Trump traveled two times to the disaster area. Vice President Pence and members of Congress also visited the scene of the new catastrophe.

Now, again the focus of news returns to the threat of North Korea of an attack to U.S. and other allies in the Pacific sector.

During the days that everybody was watching the dramatic events of the flooding of Texas and other areas of the Gulf Coast, North Korea launched a missile that crossed for the air a small island of Japan and ended in the sea.

The provocation of the North Korean regime against the United States is growing to a level that looks difficult to maintain under control.

According to several sources, North Korea is trying to load a hydrogen bomb in a long-range missile that can achieve different targets in the Pacific.

Next you can read copy of a series of comments that I posted during the last few days in Wall Street Journal blogs.

Through this material you will perceive the reactions about the North Korean threat. I received more than 70 recommendations in a comment that I posted 12 hours ago. (This detail shows that everybody is reading the news about North Korea with serious worry.)

MY LAST BLOG COMMENTS

(This story shows a photo of the North Korean leader observing the testing of system to load a nuclear bomb in a missile. The photo doesn’t have date.)
North Korea is in the “path” to achieve what its leader wants. Speculations about when and how doesn’t make sense.  No more blab, blab!

(This is the comment that generated more than 70 reactions only in hours after I posted. By the way, DW (German World Press) commented this morning early that German Chancellor Merkel and French President Macron are calling to the other members of EU for new sanctions against the partners of North Korea.)

Economic sanctions and complaints through the UN will not stop the nuclear program of North Korea.

(In the next days, the South Korean President will visit Washington DC. According to several sources, U.S, is weighing the withdrawal from the South Korea Trade Pact.)

South Korea without the support of the United States is completely at risk.

Hurricane season: Harvey, Irma, Lidia and how many more? We have to stay prepare for the next storms to avoid havoc. This is only we can do and it is important.

(A Chinese business group is trying to buy an important semiconductor company from the United States.Three times, the American authorities refused the request to authorize the acquisition. Now, the CEO of Lattice and the Chinese potential buyers are pushing to talk directly with President Trump.)

Definitively, U.S. has to push away all the intents of Chinese for acquiring any technology company. The answer about Lattice Semiconductors has to be: NO!

We - the Americans - make the effort to innovate in technology and after that, Chinese or Russians come for our assets with astute arguments. 

The statement of the Lattice CEO Darin Billerbeck is the classic argument of the Americans who open the doors to the enemy boots in exchange a “sack of gold”.

The “path” of the diplomacy doesn’t work when the enemy leader is a mental sick man, and he has the direct or indirect support of power countries like China and Russia.

Always after a natural disaster comes another problem: the insurance resistance to pay.

But businesses, companies and private people will not buy insurance policies if they don’t have risks.
