  story breaking on reuters here.... kim jong-un seems determined to start a war.

  nk is a national cult of personality.

  hating the rest of the world is the first tenet of faith..

  Sanctions against countries that do business with NK will hurt US consumers and businesses that do business with such countries - and it won't work. Such strategy is to force the NK regime to collapse or a turning on KJU, but China said that they will not let that happen.

  KJU is a smart guy and he probably won't do atmospheric nuclear testing, but if he does, the radiation will spread and could cause cancer to people. Anyway, it will be too late after he does it. Off Topic, the US blew up a mosque in Syria, killing men, women and children, breaking international law.

  think if you not part of there family or close friends many view the df as a person that has leprosy.

  That I've heard many many years ago, but not lately. But a person can feel that way when no one will deal with him.

  I've seen in print that god views them as dead.

  If they were dead they could not repent and come back. The WT uses the example in the Bible back in the Apostles day of the man who was having sex with his fathers wife or something like that and had to be df but later repented and taken back. But the wt does not give up hope that the prodigal son someday will come to his senses. At least that is how I feel about it. There is not hate, only pain. Remember how King David felt when his son Absalom turned on him - no hate, only pain.

  No. An enemy would be a person that God finds to be a fighter against the kingdom.

  I don't remember if it was the towers elevator or another building. There were a lot of people in the elevator and brother Chitty was in the elevator. Anyway, the elevator stopped at a floor and a brother thought that Chitty got out, so he said: "There goes Chitty Chitty Bang Bang." And brother Chitty responded: " Brother Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is here!"

  Back in the 90's a few btlites brewed their own beer.

  Britain Branch to Cease Printing Sooner Than Expected

  i've received the following news from a reliable and trusted source: .

  the demise of printing literature in the u.k. is being brought forward by one year - to march 2018. graphic design and printing support will go too.

  large numbers of "disposable" bethelites will now have to make their own way in the world, when their "mother" abandons them.

  to build such a big facility outside London

  The WT is making a brilliant move to get out of the way, out of the center of town, releasing their properties for economic development for public use. They figure that they can run their operations and do what they are doing from another location elsewhere.

  Also, don't take KJU's word for it --NK has shown to the world and to the US that NK is a world power.

  And as far as I know NK never signed any agreement to be legally under the jurisdiction of the international body that forbids nuclear underground testing.

  All the rhetoric is not going to cause any war. All KJU wants to do is to test and build nuclear missiles for defense -with or without rhetoric ( and get publicity) -He doesn't want to wind up like Saddam Hussein. But, at least for the immediate present KJU is not going to attack the US -with or without rhetoric. Rhetoric is not a factor for KJU.

  And while it is true that KJU has apparently violated international law, that Is for an international Court to adjudicate. It also appears that neither China or Russia want to hold him accountable for the blast,

  Underground nuclear testing is against international law.

  So what, world powers have broken international laws without consequences ( from the perspective of NK) and after US and I presume, Russia and China conducted their nuclear tests, then they pass laws making things illegal. Says KJU : "Bullocks!"

  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_weapons_testing
  

  China is shielding NK for reasons of self-interest.

  China has stated in not so many words that they will not allow NK regime to collapse (hint). And when Putin stated that there will be PLANETARY catastrophe, he appears to be hinting that if US nukes NK, Russia might not like it - another way of putting DT words of 'fire and fury.'

  There is not much the US can do at this point, NK having ICBM with thermonuclear tips. Either wipe out the present gov as it did with Saddam, destroy NK, or give KJU what he wants under the guise of diplomacy.

  Thus, if US really wants to take away the cookies from KJU, it won't be easy.
