We have heard it all before – all options are on the table – and of course, that means the use of force. This time North Korea is in the crosshairs. The usual bellicose language is used and threats are made. What is missing is diplomacy. (teaser from CrossTalk)

The supposed established wisdom about the current Korean conflict peddled by the mainstream media, much of the phony left/progressive media and even some of the alternative media, including Alex Jones' InfoWars (see, as just one example, North Korea Pushes Imminent War (29/4/17)), is that North Korea is the aggressor and the threat to the whole Korean peninsula, Japan and the rest of the world.
In fact, for all its faults, both real and fabricated, it is the government of North Korea and not South Korea, which upholds the Korean people's heroic legacy of resistance to colonialism. That history began before the 1910 invasion of Korea by the Japanese Empire. After Japan was defeated at the end of Second World War, the United States, installed as the government of 'South' Korea, those who had collaborated with the Japanese Empire against their fellow countrymen – and even against America! In the North those who had resisted Japan were allowed to form government by the Soviet Union.
