North Korea threatens ‘FALL OF THE AMERICAN EMPIRE’ in direct warning to Donald Trump
NORTH KOREA has promised to deliver the “fall of the American empire” in a direct warning to US president Donald Trump.
North Korea has issued a deadly warning to the USA
The hermit state’s pot-bellied despot said his army would force the US to “collapse” if they continued to carry out joint drills with his southern rivals on the Korean peninsula.
Kim Jong-un also said he would reduce Japan to “ashes” and turn South Korea to a “sea of fire” if his wishes weren’t obeyed, in the latest round in an ever-tightening spiral of threat and counter-threat with Donald Trump.
His latest chilling diatribe came in a Pyongyang-based propaganda newspaper opinion piece entitled ‘Nuclear War Will Bring Nothing but Doom to US’.
The North Korean editorial said: “The reckless nuclear war provocation by the Trump administration will bring it nothing but the fall of the American empire.

“The Trump administration's dispatch of carrier strike groups to the waters off the Korean peninsula is a reckless action of the war maniacs aimed at an extremely dangerous nuclear war.
“It is easy for the powerful revolutionary Paektusan army to make such gigantic carriers something useless.”
After destroying Mr Trump’s attack group, Kim said he would turn his attention to the US mainland and his Asian rival.

Our strike will be merciless punishment that never allows the existence of the US
He continued: “The US mainland is the final target of the DPRK's strategic rockets tipped with powerful nuclear warheads.
“The Pacific is no longer peaceful ocean which guarantees the security of the US Its vast territory is exposed to our preemptive nuclear strike.
“Our strike will be merciless punishment that never allows the existence of the US.”

It comes after North Korea attempted to start World War 3 by securing the support of ten Asian states against the US.
