Trump orders military advisers to prepare plans to hit North Korea


From The Mirror:
President Trump has ordered his military advisers to be ready with a list of options to smash North Korea’s nuclear threat. 
One of the advisers, Lieutenant General H. R. McMaster, confirmed his Commander-in-Chief has made the order as a U.S. carrier strike group heads for the region. 
It is believed that among the options are combined special forces raids and pre-emptive missile strikes. 
One of the problems facing an American-led operation to hit Pyongyang’s leader Kim Jong-Un is the intricate tunnel network under the capital. 
War-planners have had difficulty mapping out the subterranean complex and believe there are hundreds of underground artillery and airplane sites. 
McMaster described the decision to redeploy the USS Carl Vinson to the Sea of Japan as ‘prudent’ given North Korea’s ‘pattern of provocative behavior.’

BostonMag April 2017: Tamerlan Tsarnaev: Terrorist. Murderer. Federal Informant?
Not long after Tamerlan Tsarnaev bombed the Boston Marathon, investigative reporter Michele McPhee went looking for answers. What she discovered, detailed in this exclusive excerpt from her new book, Maximum Harm, might just change how you think about our government and law enforcement forever.

===>"Whatever information Tamerlan’s immigration records contained, the DHS secretary was not at liberty to talk. It was a staggering admission, especially since DHS would eventually be forced to release Tamerlan’s alien file pursuant to a Freedom of Information Act request filed by multiple news organizations, including the Boston Globe, in February 2016. Though dozens of pages were completely redacted, including the names of federal agencies that requested Tamerlan receive U.S. citizenship (and waive any fees for the application process), the U.S. Customs file still contained troubling information."<===

Uhhh, excuse me but didn't Trump campaign on never broadcasting his intentions? So the only way this fits is if this is a feint, and Xi agreed to do the job and today China sent a second envoy to SK and they agreed this shit w/Norks had to stop. Deal there is possibly, China removes Norks with decapitation and SK does not deploy THAAD
