North Korea Dismantling Rocket Test Site

[protectionist]

It's happening. Whoever said it wasn't got it wrong. Today, from an AFP report, North Korea appears to have started dismantling key facilities at a rocket-engine test center, a group of experts said Monday, potentially marking a significant step after last month's summit between Kim Jong Un and US President Donald Trump.

According to the respected 38 North group, commercial satellite imagery of the Sohae satellite launching station indicates Pyongyang has begun taking down a processing building and a rocket-engine test stand, that had been used to test liquid-fuel engines for ballistic missiles and space launch vehicles.

Sohae, on the northwest coast of North Korea, has been used to test rockets, with the aim of putting a satellite into orbit.

But rocket engines are easily repurposed for use in missiles and outside observers say nuclear-armed Pyongyang's space program is a fig leaf for weapons tests.

38 North analyst Joseph Bermudez called the move an "important first step" for Kim in fulfilling commitments he made to Trump during their June summit in Singapore.

Pretty amazing detail, considering these pictures are taken by satellite from space.

The left will simply deny it.

Sure. They follow the methodology of Hillary Clinton, America's # 1 liar. Back in 1992, during the campaign, Bill Clinton attacked Dick Morris, and tackled him to the ground. A reporter from the LA Times showed up at Morris' door asking about the altercation. Morris called Hillary and asked how to handle it.

Hillary told him "Just tell them it never happened. We'll deny it on our end." Dick said he couldn't do that, since he had already told someone else. " Hillary said, "Deny it. It'll be your word against his."

This is who the Democrats nominated to run for president.

Remember how loud Democrats got when it looked like Trump had miscalculated, by North Korea not denuclearizing. Oh, threads were abounding (like "North Korea Winning!") That thread went 7 pages and 70 posts. Mostly filled with stuff like THIS gem fron the Progressive Patriot >> "Trump is a diplomatic disaster, and now he is letting Kim walk all over him."

And there was THIS from Waiting for 2020, in the "What was that you said Donald ?">> "I posted in June that the meeting in Singapore was nothing but smoke and mirrors."

SO NOW, here we are in late July with real evidence of the denuclearization of North Korea...clearly one to the top achievement of any US President ever, and after 2 days posted, the thread is struggling to get past 5 posts (4 of the 5 were mine)

Where are all the Democrats who were so loud and raucous when it looked like Trump's North Korea diplomacy was backfiring ? Not a whisper now. Hey Democrats! S'matter buddies ? Cat got your tongues ?

North Korea DENUCLEARIZATION is happening - right now, and has been for the past 2 weeks This story is huge, yet here is a thread on it, and nobody's paying attention. (2 days 1 post, besides me)

Here's 2 theories on why >>

1. Liberals don't want to talk about anything boosting Trump, like the North Korean summit having successful results.

2. Liberals are completely oblivious that this is happening, because their media has tabooed it, and not saying a word.

Today in a Senate hearing, one senator unaware of the Sohae Station denuclearization, challenged Pompeo, still thinking that North Korea was not doing any of it. Pompeo filled him in.

Now they can't deny. The proof is in the pictures.

That won't even slow them down.

That won't even slow them down.

They cover it up by their continuous yammering about Russia - like a smokescreen.

Democrats haven't been this scarce in a thread, since Trump got elected
