How Do You Solve A Problem Like Korea?


Mrs Trellis mentioned Kim Jong Un in her conversation this morning.
She referred to him as a "horrid and dangerous little man"
She also had an interesting take on him that I have not heard before
She thinks he craves international acceptance and a Hollywood lifestyle. Let Tom Cruise meet up with him and things will work out fine she mused.
I mentioned her that the country would be an interesting place to visit which was comment she was horrified with.
"Oh nooooo!  they eat dog there as superfood! " she said pointing to Winnie who yawned with boredom into the wind
" They'd have a field day with her" she added.

    I suspect Winnie might make a rather fatty meal.

  3. We are going to New York next month for a big holiday! My Mum is convinced that WW3 is going to break out whilst me and her Grand daughter are out there! I am getting slightly worried too...

  4. I have often thought Mrs Trellis is probably on the money with different things, and she is probably right about this too! If this silly man got a different sort of attention he might stop seeking this kind of attention. I hope he stops soon!

  6. It's high time the Chinese got their fingers out. They should give this guy one last chance to redeem himself and if he doesn't, which he won't, put an end to this nonsense with proper sanctions such as cutting off his oil supply etc.. and
    if extra leverage is required putting his power stations out of action.

    1. Radio 4 suggested it would take 5 years of sanctions to make any real effect

    2. They are wrong in my opinion. Staple foods like rice and wheat are imported along with oil and some wheat land I believe is 'rented' off Russia where the countries border each other. I remember reading about this arrangement some years ago. Sanctions could get very nasty.

    1. He'll have his agents after you laughing at his haircut. Look out for any young ladies approaching you with a small cloth.

  9. These are very frightening times with two insane leaders running the show. We seem to be looking at Mission Impossible and we sure could use a Tom Cruise or the like to save the world.

  10. "Craves international acceptance" - hit the nail on the head.

  11. Ah, "How Do You Solve A Problem Like Korea?" from "The Sound of Missiles!

    I think she's right that he's a Little Man who just wants friends.

  14. Wish it was that simple. This man is very dangerous....much like Trump.....the sooner they are both dealt with, the better for the world.

  15. Maybe we should send Trump to visit Kim .. dogless .. let them bore each other to death with their speeches.

    2. I was musing only this morning on how, as Kim loves to bask in glory, helping him get to get to the moon, perhaps with a certain President as company (but with NO translator) - and maybe with additional room for a particular Russian head of state - would solve a myriad of the planet's problems at one fell swoop. It hardly needs saying that there'd be no means for them to return, though we'd keep that bit 'hush'.

  16. Very furtunate for the world that Hillary Clinton's not President of the US. She would have already sanctioned toppling him.

    1. Anybody who doesn't believe you Rachel should look at closely at the strange look in her eyes when she speaks live to camera about the death of the Libyan leader and note her infamous words: "We came. We saw. He died."

  17. Love the post title! I wish Kim was just a will-o'-the-wisp, a flibbertygibbet, a clown -- but the man is much too dangerous to be treated so lightly. The sooner he is gone, the better.

    Every village needs a Mrs. Trellis -- and a John Gray.

  18. Wasn't there a James Bond story about a mad scientist with a nuclear weapon? Where's Ian Fleming when we need him?

  19. I had such high hopes when the son came to power ... I have to admit it .. i did... I thought here is the younger generation.. here's a chance for change... us old fogies can get so stuck in our ways... But nope .. if anything he is worse than his father.... What to do about him? I wish i had the answer... I've been thinking about that... What in the world are we gonna do... He's like a little boy with toys... very deadly toys...I hope all the nations can get together to stand against him including China... I would think he would be an embarrassment to China... But even then what can we do other than some military action.. sanctions don't seem to work........Hugs! deb

  20. Might be a good time to change tactics, evaluate things from another perspective. But who knows what will happen.

  21. Who knows the answer. Her theory is as good as I have heard.

  22. Great post title John! I would quite enjoy a chat with Mrs Trellis. Her insights would make a change from talking about the weather or shops closing down.

  23. We're definitely helpless, just as we are helpless with climate's destructive power.
    Kim, by the way, has spent several years in Switzerland (Bern) where he attended a private school. They say he was good at math, but interested in basketball.

  24. Now there is where trump should put his wall. I am sick and tired of all the politicos. It is just scarey.. lets throw a war that only the leaders attend.

  25. Not 't' worry ..... Australians have "SupeeRRRr" fighting Kangaroos.

  26. Sad to think that in 2017 people are kept ignorant and isolated by narcissistic leaders trying to impress their "daddies". And yes I throw Trump into that mix right next to this brat.

  27. If anyone thinks of touching that Winnie with a view to spit roasting they will have to get past me first - trouble is that if it was a man she would go overboard for him anyway.

  32. And we have the 'fortune' to have two nuts controlling the nuclear fate of the world. How wonderful. America at least had a choice, and the make the most improbably, incoherent, and inappropriate choice possible.
    My god, sometimes I hate this country. And I speak as a combat vet, and someone who worked to help save lives most of his life.

  35. I have noticed Kim Jong Un is stocky while his entourage and soldiers are rail-thin. I wouldn't put assassinating half-brothers, uncles and other relatives past Trump either, but I doubt he'd eat them. Then again...

  36. Yes, he eats all he wants too. On that note....

    Lets face it, if Kim Jong Un launched a strike against the US (or anyone else for that matter) he'd be committing suicide with consequences the whole world would suffer for.
    The most worrying thing is, he might just be insane enough to do it....

  38. Tens of thousands of dog's are systemically tortured before being brutally killed for their meat in these barbaric countries, South Korea as well as North Korea, China and other Asian countries. Sorry just wanted to mention that in case anyone wasn't aware of these poor dog's miserable live's and horrific death's!
