The United States is planning to attack North Korea, according to US geopolitical expert George Friedman, preparing for a painful and difficult war with potentially catastrophic consequences.

Although it is unlikely that the United States will take action until President Donald Trump returns to his country this weekend, North Korea’s actions appear to have “offered the United States no alternative ” Says Business Insider , quoting the statement by George Friedman, founder of Stratfor and Geopolitical Futures, at the 2017 Strategic Investment Conference in Orlando.

According to Friedman, who was using an analysis of Geopolitical Futures, there is a set of factors that prove that the confrontation between the two countries is growing at a point where war is inevitable.

So, the founder of Stratfor explained that on May 20, US aircraft carriers Carl Vinson and Ronald Reagan were both within range of North Korea.

In addition, he said more than 100 F-16 aircraft were performing daily exercises in the region, a tactic that preceded the start of the US Desert Storm Against Iraq operation in 1991.

In addition, the Pentagon has deployed F-35 aircraft and US government officials are expected to brief Guam Island, a non-incorporated United States territory in the Pacific, on civil protection, terrorism and the situation On the Korean peninsula on 31 May.

According to the American geo-political scientist, all these measures show only one possible scenario: war.
