NORTH KOREA DISMISSES TRUMP'S THREAT

United States President Donald Trump’ s threat to totally destroy North Korea has been dismissed by a North Korean organ as an ‘ impotent’ threat .

In a tweet by the country ’ s news agency , DPRK, News Service , Trump’ s threat was likened to “ the twitching of a dog licking its flea- riddled scrotum . ”

The tweet also described Trump as an ” international shouting magnate . ”




"Impotent threats by international shouting magnate Donald Trump are dismissed , as the twitchings of a Dog licking its flea- riddled scrotum."




Trump in his first speech at the United Nations General Assembly had called North Korea’ s leader Kim Jong Un a “ rocket man on a suicide mission, ” adding that the United States will totally destroy the country if it fails to stop its nuclear programme.

Loud murmurs filled the green -marbled U. N . General Assembly hall when Trump issued his sternest warning yet to North Korea , whose ballistic missile launches and nuclear tests had rattled the globe.

Unless North Korea backs down , he said , “ We will have no choice than to totally destroy North Korea . ”

“ Rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and his regime , ” he said .

North Korea’ s mission to the United Nations did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Trump’ s remarks .

A junior North Korean diplomat remained in the delegation ’ s front-row seat for Trump ’ s speech , the North Korean U. N . mission said .

In his first appearance at the annual gathering of world leaders , the president used a 41 - minute speech to take aim also at Iran ’ s nuclear ambitions and regional influence , Venezuela ’ s collapsing democracy and the threat of Islamist extremists .

He also criticised the Cuban government .

But his strongest words were directed at North Korea . He urged United Nations member states to work together to isolate the Kim government until it ceases its “ hostile ” behaviour .

He said North Korea ’ s pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles “ threatens the entire world with unthinkable cost of human life . ”
