Ex-CIA Chief Brennan: 20 to 25% chance of war with North Korea

I'm actually pleased he said this because from an intuitive's point of view it is actually a 50-50 chance whether we go to war with North Korea.

Why?

Because 50% of the problem is Kim Jong Un and 50% of the problem is Trump.

They are both men with big egos who are narcissistic like Hitler.

Like they say, "It takes two to tango!"

And this is the complete problem right there.

Former CIA Director John Brennan said Wednesday that he believes there is up to a 25 percent chance of an armed conflict with North Korea.
Brennan, who served as CIA director under former President Barack Obama from 2013 to 2017, shared the estimate during his first public and on-the-record discussion since July at an event in New York.
President Trump's handling of a bellicose North Korea has been subject to a great deal of criticism as the president has taken to mocking the country's leader, Kim Jong Un, "little rocket man," and has threatened to "totally destroy" North Korea if provoked.
On the conflict between Trump and Kim, Brennan said, "I can't see either one of them saying, okay, uncle, you win."
Another Obama-era official, Hillary Clinton, who served as Obama's first secretary of state, also derided the U.S.'s "bellicose" and "aggressive" stance on Pyongyang under Trump.
Such an attitude from Washington is "dangerous and short-sighted," Clinton said.
