    Take it seriously
    A leader is not
    Is too young, too stupid!! – But -!!
    He certainly can bring the world into World War III
    In my opinion, Russia and Iran are behind his crazy behavior,
    The purpose
    Bring the U.S. into war
    So America will not be able to help Israel in the event of attack

    The US government has financed N Korea since the war ended. I'm sure the cuts from the sequester are really hitting them hard.
