Kim Jong-Un boasted of North Korea’s ability to strike any target in the US after a second ICBM test that weapons experts said Saturday could even bring New York into range -– in a potent challenge to President Donald Trump.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Kim Jong-Un may be a funny little man with  a crazy bad haircut that no one takes seriously. But just remember, Adolf Hitler was a funny little man  with a crazy bad moustache that no one took seriously. Until he invaded Poland, started WWII and killed 6 million Jews along with 6 million other people from various assorted races. If we really want to “learn from history”, it’s  just about time to “send a message” to North Korea. And by sending a message, I mean we need  to blow up the launch pad the next time they get ready to fire off another missile. Funny little dictators need to be taken seriously. Very seriously.

China condemned the test but US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Beijing and Moscow bore “unique responsibility” for the growing threat posed by the reclusive North. Under Kim’s leadership North Korea has accelerated its drive towards a credible nuclear strike capability, in defiance of international condemnation and multiple sets of UN sanctions.

Kim said the test “is meant to send a grave warning to the US” and demonstrated the North’s ability to launch “at any place and time,” the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said.

The “leader said proudly the test also confirmed all the US mainland is within our striking range,” it said. Trump denounced the launch as “reckless and dangerous” and rejected Pyongyang’s claims that such tests helped ensure its security.

“The United States will take all necessary steps to ensure the security of the American homeland and protect our allies in the region.”

North Korea threatens U.S. with nuclear missile strike:

Weapons experts said the altitude and flight time of Friday’s missile suggested it was significantly more powerful than the July 4 test, with a theoretical range of around 10,000 kilometres (6,200 miles) meaning it might be able to reach east coast US cities like New York, depending on the payload size.

“North Korea seems to have made a logical step forward, as it tries to perfect the technologies to build and field an operationally-viable ICBM that can threaten the mainland United States,” said Michael Elleman, missile defence specialist at the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies.

– ‘Growing threat’ –

Kim Dong-Yub, a defence analyst at the Institute for Far Eastern Studies at Kyungnam University, said the North may have succeeded in miniaturising warheads down to 750 kilograms (1,650 pounds).

“If the missile carries a 750 kg payload, its range could be 10,000 kilometres. Taking into account the Earth’s rotation, it means it could reach not only the western cities but New York and Washington as well,” he told AFP.

Tillerson said Pyongyang’s main ally Beijing, together with Moscow, bore responsibility for the growing threat from Pyongyang.

“As the principal economic enablers of North Korea’s nuclear weapon and ballistic missile development programme, China and Russia bear unique and special responsibility for this growing threat to regional and global stability,” he said.

Is America prepared for a confrontation with North Korea?

Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida said he held telephone talks with Tillerson and agreed on the need to put “the heaviest possible pressure” on North Korea.

“We confirmed that we will closely cooperate in adopting a fresh UNSC (UN Security Council) resolution, including severe measures, and working on China and Russia,” Kishida told reporters.

In a standard response to the test, Beijing urged restraint by all sides, after the US and South Korea conducted a live-fire exercise using surface-to-surface missiles.

The heads of the US and South Korean militaries also discussed “military response options” after North Korea’s launch, the Pentagon said.

South Korea said the test had prompted it to speed up deployment of a US missile defence system, despite consistent protests from China that the programme would destabilise the region.

“The THAAD (missile defence) system deployment cannot solve South Korea’s security concerns, nor can it solve the problems facing the Korean peninsula,” China’s ministry of foreign affairs said in a statement Saturday.

North Korea’s unrelenting pursuit of its missile and nuclear programmes poses a thorny policy challenge for Trump, who is at loggerheads with Beijing over how to handle Kim’s regime. Trump has repeatedly urged China to rein in its recalcitrant neighbour, but Beijing insists dialogue is the only practical way forward.

Joel Wit, a senior fellow at the US-Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins University and an expert on the North’s nuclear weapons programme, said Friday’s launch confirmed time was running out for Washington to find a way out of a pressing security crisis.

“Another North Korean test of what appears to be a missile that can reach the United States further emphasises the need for the Trump administration to focus like a laser on this increasingly dangerous situation,” Wit said on the institute’s 38 North website.

The North’s July 4 test triggered global alarm, with experts saying the missile had a theoretical range to reach Alaska.

There remain doubts whether the North can miniaturise a nuclear weapon to fit a missile nose cone, or if it has mastered the technology needed for the projectile to survive re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere.

But since Kim came to power there has been a series of technical advances, including three nuclear tests and a string of missile launches.

In all, six sets of UN sanctions have been imposed on North Korea since it first tested an atomic device in 2006, but two resolutions adopted last year significantly toughened the sanctions regime. source

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Donald Trump Who Brought Us The Pandemic, The Lockdown And mRNA Vaccines Now Gives Us Mandatory Biometric Real ID

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

It would seem that President Donald Trump is being used by God to advance the end times timeline in preparation of the coming Antichrist, get ready for Real ID

Last week on our X page, we brought you the news that Trump’s Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem made the stunning announcement that starting May 7th of this year, all citizens of the United States who wish to fly will now be required to carry the biometric digital identification known as Real ID. No exceptions. If you’re waiting for Trump to make America great again, you will find yourself still stuck in the waiting room. What is Trump up to? Being used of God and by God to advance the end times timeline. That’s the memo.

“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, this is what Ron Paul has said about Real ID. “The REAL ID Act establishes a national ID card by mandating that states include certain minimum identification standards on driver’s licenses. It contains no limits on the government’s power to impose additional standards. Indeed, it gives authority to the Secretary of Homeland Security to unilaterally add requirements as he sees fit. Supporters claim it is not a national ID because it is voluntary. However, any state that opts out will automatically make non-persons out of its citizens. The citizens of that state will be unable to have any dealings with the federal government because their ID will not be accepted. They will not be able to fly or to take a train. In essence, in the eyes of the federal government they will cease to exist. It is absurd to call this voluntary.” Y’all get that? Sure hope so. On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we bring you up to speed on the preparation of the United States of America to join the Beast system.

The apostle Paul cared not for titles, certifications and the accolades of men, he had a much higher goal in mind. Paul was pressing toward the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus, and calls us to do the same. Preached live this morning at Bethany Baptist Church in Saint Augustine, Florida.

From A Disabled Vet Teaching A Bible Class In Maryland To A Chaplain In Need Of Scripture In Missouri, Bibles Behind Bars Is There

From the Moberly Correctional Center in Missouri to the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home in Maryland, Bibles Behind Bars is meeting the need through the giving of God’s people

We heard from a number of chaplains and jail workers this week, reaching out to Bibles Behind Bars to help keep the supply lines open. Life behind bars, for the inmates as well as the chaplains, is a very different reality than what you and I experience on a daily basis. Behind bars, money has very little value, and things that are often neglected and overlooked on the outside, like Bibles, are worth their weight in gold within the jails and prisons.

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18,19 (KJB)

Chaplain Jeff is chaplain at the Moberly Correctional Center in Moberly, Missouri, and he reached out to us this week asking for Bibles for the inmates there. Moberly Correctional has a capacity of 1,800 inmates. Chaplain Todd from the Sebastian County Detention Center wrote to us with the good news of many prisoners getting saved and being handed one of our Bibles, telling us he could sure use some more of them. Just one more soul, amen?!? The last request we got this week was not from a jail or prison, but from the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home in Maryland from a volunteer vet chaplain there.

Chaplain Wes writes and says this “God Bless this ministry. Would it be possible to receive 10 KJV Ruckman Bibles for my guys that regularly attend our Friday Weekly Bible Study? I am an ordained preacher, went to Bible School. Here is the link proving I teach Bible Study there every Friday at 3:00pm; Good News Bible Study. I am a disabled vet in a wheelchair myself and have been in the veterans ministry since 2008. Dr. Ruckman used to come up and do Chalk Talks for the guys where dozens got saved PTL. I miss him. The Lord has allowed me the opportunity to lead dozens and dozens of our nations finest veterans to the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. It would greatly be appreciated if you can, however if you cannot I understand and pray for us.” If you were able to read that without tearing up just a little, go check your heart. That’s real-deal ministry right there. Come help us, we need you.
