CNN: North Korea Says America’s ‘Gangster-Like Logic’ Is Pushing the World to the Brink of Nuclear War

EXCERPT.

BRIGGS: "Let’s turn now to North Korea ramping up rhetoric this morning saying just hours ago that America’s 'gangster-like logic' is pushing tensions to the brink of thermonuclear war. CNN's Alexandra Field live in South Korea with more. Alexandra, who is saying this on the part of North Korea?"
FIELD: "Look, this has been the response by North Korea directly put out by their state news agency. It comes as a result of the movement of the U.S. warships into the waters off of the Korean Peninsula, a move that Pyongyang sees as highly provocative. They have responded with that statement and they've also gone on to say that 'This has created a dangerous situation in which a thermonuclear war may break out at any moment on the peninsula. Nothing will be more childish and foolish than for the U.S. to dream of bringing down the social system in the DPRK through cooperation with someone.' Those words part of the propaganda that Pyongyang has been putting out this week."
