Kim Jong-un’s North Korean regime’s ballistic missile program has […]
The military war games conducted by the United States and South Korea elicited a typical North Korean response. Pyongyang threatened both countries on Tuesday with “merciless retaliation” over their ongoing joint military drills. North Korea’s state-run Korean Central News (KCNA) had a bombastic warning that both countries they “should take the whole responsibility for catastrophic results […]
Two North Korean shipments to a Syrian government agency responsible for the country’s chemical weapons program were intercepted in the past six months, according to a confidential United Nations report on North Korea sanctions violations. The report by a panel of independent U.N. experts, which was submitted to the U.N. Security Council earlier this month […]
On Monday, the United States and South Korea are set to commence a new series of joint defense drills, called Ulchi Freedom Guardian 2017. While these types of joint military exercises between the two nations occur with some regularity, however, Ulchi Freedom Guardian comes on the heels of a slight reduction in tensions on the […]
The wall around the Yuzhmash rocket factory in east Ukraine is in places overgrown with weeds, a sign of hard times at a plant which a new study says could be the source of engines that power North Korean missiles. Workers at the plant have had their hours cut and wages are in arrears, but […]
In a meeting Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Secretary of Defense James Mattis co-hosted with their Japanese counterparts, America’s top diplomat and senior military leader reaffirmed America’s “ironclad commitment” to the mutual defense of its allies in the Pacific.

Although it would seem that the most immediate threat of war with North Korea has been averted, tensions between the two nations remain high, and the U.S. is not backing down from its aggressive stance. Earlier this week, Kim Jong-un announced that he would place plans to launch four long-range ballistic missiles toward Guam on […]
Charles Robert Jenkins deserted the U.S. Army on a freezing night in January 1965. He pounded 10 beers to quiet his nerves, and abandoned his patrol unit along the border dividing South and North Korea — a 160-mile-long, 2.5-mile-wide strip of mine-ridden no man’s land. He unloaded his M-16 rifle to show the enemy he […]
Amid growing tensions between the United States and China in regions like the South China Sea, the two nations signed an agreement on Tuesday intended to improve communications between the two naval powers.

In light of surging tensions between North Korea, its neighbors, and the US, South Korea has decided to deploy more powerful US missile defense batteries. South Korean President Moon Jae In, who had initially been resistant to increased US missile defense deployments, requested talks on improving his country’s defensive posture in light of recent threats from North Korea. “They’re […]
America’s top diplomat and the leader of its military penned a joint Op-Ed for the Wall Street Journal last week, titled “We’re Holding Pyongyang to Account,” in which they laid the groundwork for America’s new strategy regarding North Korea under President Trump’s administration. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Secretary of Defense James Mattis joined […]
American Secretary of Defense James Mattis doubled down on President Trump’s threats of a military response to a North Korean attempt at a missile strike in Guam on Monday, and it would seem the U.S.’s aggressive rhetoric may have been enough to call Kim’s bluff. “It could escalate into war very quickly — yes, that’s […]
