So, destabilisation of a 'free' economy in South Korea at the same time as an increase in South Korean and US militarism displays with their practice invasions of North Korea, using live fire etc...the installation in South Korea, close to Seoul of the US THAAD anti-rocket rocket system that can't actually stop the rockets (too close), but can aim at China... and President Kim Jong Un, of North Korea, who is probably 29 or 30 years old now, has a neat trendy haircut, a long tenure in power, and a brace of nuclear weapons...Russia to the North claiming Islands claimed by Japan, China to the South and West, the US nuclear fleet always nearby, and Japan slowly going under...and looking for someone to blame. Well done boys...60 years of elite negotiations. Great work, Western Alliance, great work. Smart thinking.

Life as a Mystery... I've noticed that ever since someone in the immediate household gave up smoking that I seem to have fewer and fewer cigarettes, and thus my smoking rate must have increased phenomenally, although I can't recall that happening. Still, as the most respected living philosopher on Earth, Madonna noted some time back..."Life is a mys-ter-y."
KOREA: Change will come from the South as always. Every Big war has a certain developmental and pre-production phase that results in a Tipping Point...or Use BY Date...and Korea is approaching the Use By Date very rapidly. The clarity is remarkable...everyone knows exactly what side they are on already.

The clarity is remarkable...everyone knows exactly what side they are on already...every nation, and most people also. It has been well cooked for a long time to be desirable. I expect that Kim Jong Un will do quite well.

ALERT: Park Geun-hye removed from office, election likely in early May Moon Jae-in probable successor: Polls President Park Geun-hye’s impeachment was upheld by South Korea’s Constitutional Court at 11:23 a.m. Seoul time, Friday, formally removing Park from the presidency. The next South Korean presidential election will likely to be held in early May, and the Minjoo Party’s Moon Jae-in remains the fron-trunner, according to the latest polls. “…that is why the accused is impeached,” Lee Jung-mi, acting president of the South Korean Constitutional Court said...
Korea is fascinating and unique. A country that was once part of the Chinese Han Manchurian Empire, and was granted total Independence as a Nation by China a long long time ago, and then basically obliterated by, firstly Japan, then US and USSR, so obliterated that the country was split among warring brothers into North (supported by USSR) & South (supported by Western Forces)...a country that has remained 'at war' with itself for over 60 years. There is only one Korea. These two warring brothers should be left to work out their differences. It wouldn't take long. If every other nation just kept within its own borders, then Korea would be unified pretty quickly. It wouldn't be pleasant, but it would resolve itself; the Korean Family would be as one and work out all their differences. When you look into the culture of Korea, the missionaries bringing Christian zeal, the shamanistic indigenous notions, the reign of confucianism, then Japanese Shintoism, invasion etc, and in the North, the Rise of Juche etc, you can understand both the rise and continuance of someone like Kim Jong Un and also the bizarre religious leader Church of Unification in the South Sun Kyun Moon...and it will have to come down to the Korean Brothers in some kind of slugging match. No real need for anyone else to be involved.
Korea
The continuing impeachment of South Korea President Park looks like it will destabilise the parliament and thathat half of Korea. The next presidential elections, based upon the various corruptions in government as well as in the Giant Samsung Corp will deliver a functional democratic socialist govt interested in dialogue with North Korea...bbut the US will stymy that and remove the South Korean elected Govt...tthe whole process will further destabilise the only place on earth where a world war can actually happen.
