\"\"<\/a>April 26, 2017<\/em><\/p>\n

Today the Pentagon
\nwill test fire
\na nuclear missile
\nfrom Vandenberg AFB
\nin California
\ninto the Pacific
\nlanding at their
\noften radiated target
\nKwajalein Atoll<\/p>\n

Just yesterday
\nthe Pentagon
\ntried to sneak
\nthe THAAD
\n‘missile defense’
\nsystem
\nin the dark
\nof night
\ninto the new
\nbase in Seongju,
\nSouth Korea
\nbut protesters
\nwere there
\nalong with
\na zillion police
\npushing them back<\/p>\n

Washington
\nis preparing
\nfor war with
\nNorth Korea
\nbecause
\nthey dare to test
\nmissiles
\nand develop nukes<\/p>\n

Testing missiles is
\nnot illegal
\nunder international law
\nthe US
\nand its
\ndouble standard
\nnuclear allies
\ndo it all the time
\nbut North Korea
\nis not
\nin the club
\nthus they are
\ncalled rogue<\/p>\n

Which nation
\nis the greater threat?
\nNorth Korea
\nwith their pip-squeak
\nmissile and nuclear
\ncapability
\nor the mighty
\nUSA?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The hypocrisy
\nis chilling
\nblinding
\nnerve wracking
\nheart stopping
\ninfuriating<\/p>\n

The ‘exceptional’
\nPentagon
\nmoves
\nthe world
\nstep-by-step
\ncloser
\nto WW III<\/p>\n

Today in Washington
\nTrump
\nmeets with
\nall 100 US Senators
\nabout Korea
\nlikely
\nselling war
\nlike he
\nwheels and deals
\none of his
\ntall towers,
\nshrines to
\narrogance and
\nmadness<\/p>\n

Let us hear
\nyour squeaky
\nvoice
\nnow
\nwhile
\nwe still
\ncan utter
\nwords
\nof protest
\nand
\nlife giving<\/p>\n

don’t wait
\nfor the flash
\nand bang
\nand resulting
\nsilence<\/p>\n
