The latest threat from Kim Jong-un’s rogue state was delivered through state media Rodong Sinmum. In an extraordinary attack, North Korea branded the US President “the boss of hooligans and gangsters.” And Kim's mouthpiece warned Mr Trump is "driving the destiny of the U.S. doomed to ruin into bottomless abyss of total destruction." It said: “Recently the US and the South Korean puppet forces staged a combined drill for infiltrating into enemy camp for preemptive attack at strategic objects in the north and introduced a field artillery brigade to South Korea from the US mainland to fire artillery shells. “Meanwhile, a formation of B-1B nuclear strategic bombers flew over international waters of the East Sea of Korea in a show of force".
“What matters is the US saber-rattling coincides with the reckless remarks made by Trump, the boss of hooligans and gangsters, at the UN arena that he would totally destroy the DPRK.” Kim Jong-un is known to use state media to spout fiery tirades against the United States. And the commentary from Rodong Sinmum added: “Under the situation no one can vouch that the frantic war drills in south Korea will not lead to an actual war. “Although the Trump clans are frantically introducing the nuclear strategic assets into south Korea, the army and people of the DPRK regard this action as last-ditch efforts and bluff of the weak fools.
“Trump is pulling the noose around his neck obsessed with daydream. He is driving the destiny of the US doomed to ruin into bottomless abyss of total destruction. “The ignorant lunatics without ability to see into the situation deserve disgrace and destruction.” It comes after Mr Trump delivered a sabre-rattling speech at the United Nations last month when he said, if threatened, the United States would “totally destroy” North Korea - a country that is home to 26 million people. He also stoked the ire of North Korea by mocking its leader, Kim, dubbing him “rocket man.” In a hard-edged speech to the UNGeneral Assembly, Mr Trump said: “The United States has great strength and patience, but if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea.” Mr Trump’s most direct military threat to attack North Korea, in his debut appearance at the General Assembly, was his latest expression of concern about Pyongyang’s repeated launching of ballistic missiles over Japan and underground nuclear tests. Tensions have risen on the Korean peninsula after Kim angered the international community with his sixth missile test which saw him test a hydrogen bomb.
The UN Security Council imposed its toughest sanctions ever on the North in response to its continuing nuclear weapons and ballistic missile tests, with the aim of pressuring Kim's government into returning to negotiations on denuclearising the Korean peninsula. The measures includes a ban on countries importing North Korean coal, iron ore and textiles and new limits on its crucial oil and petroleum product imports.
But the economic pressure has had no visible impact on Kim's government, which appears to be accelerating toward what it says is its goal - putting the entire United States within range of its nuclear weapons. A week ago, North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho told reporters Mr Trump had "declared the war on our country" by tweeting that North Korea's leadership "won't be around much longer." Hours later, the White House pushed back, saying: "We have not declared war on North Korea."
