9A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • TUESDAY, AUGUST 15, 2017 WORLD IN BRIEF This would be a deeply provocative act from the U.S. perspective, and there has been widespread debate about whether Washington would try to shoot the missiles down if they’re fired. The U.S.-North Korea impasse, which has simmered since the end of the Korean War in 1953, has grown more tense in recent months over worries that the North’s nuclear weapons program is nearing the ability to target the U.S. mainland. Pyongyang tested two intercontinental ballistic missiles last month. Associated Press Deadly rally accelerates removal of Confederate statues In Gainesville, Florida, workers hired by the Daughters of the Confederacy chipped away at a Confederate soldier’s statue, loaded it quietly on a truck and drove away with little fanfare. In Baltimore, Mayor Catherine Pugh said she’s ready to tear down all of her city’s Confederate statues, and the city council voted to have them destroyed. San Antonio lawmakers are look- ing ahead to removing a statue that many people wrongly assumed represented a famed Texas leader who died at the Alamo. The deadly white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, is fueling another re-evaluation of Confederate statues in cities across the nation, accelerating their removal in much the same way that a 2015 mass shooting by a white supremacist renewed pressure to take down the Confederate flag from public property. “We should not glorify a part of our history in front of our build- ings that really is a testament to America’s original sin,” Gaines- ville Mayor Lauren Poe said Monday after the statue known as “Old Joe” was returned to the United Daughters of the Confeder- acy, which erected it in 1904. A county spokesman said he did not know if the statue was removed because of the events that killed one person and injured dozens more Saturday in Charlottesville. But many officials who were horrified by the confrontation soon began publicizing plans to take down statues. Analysis: Trump’s slow walk to condemning white supremacists WASHINGTON — It took President Donald Trump two days to do what both Republicans and Democrats said should have come fast and easy. In his carefully worded statement Monday, Trump condemned members of the Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis and white supremacists as “repugnant.” He vowed that his administration would crack down on those who perpetrate “racist violence.” He called for national unity. It was the type of statement Americans have come to expect from their presidents after racially charged incidents, like the deadly violence that erupted Saturday in Charlottesville, Virginia. But Trump struggled mightily to meet the moment, glaringly omit- ting any direct condemnation of white supremacists in his initial comments on the incident and decrying bigotry “on many sides.” As the most unconventional president in modern American history, Trump has at times thrived off low expectations. He is often cheered by Republicans when he fulfills basic functions of the office. And GOP lawmakers in particular have often tried to explain away his missteps as a function of his lack of experience in Washington and politics. But he has found himself with few allies after his botched han- dling of the Charlottesville violence. Several Republicans chal- lenged Trump directly to be more strident in calling out white nationalists and neo-Nazis. Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner said the president needed to “step up” and call the groups “evil.” Protesters topple Confederate statue in North Carolina DURHAM, N.C. — Protesters in North Carolina toppled a nearly century-old statue of a Confederate soldier Monday at a rally against racism. Activists in Durham brought a ladder up to the statue and used a rope to pull down the Confederate Soldiers Monument that was dedicated in 1924. A diverse crowd of dozens cheered as the statue of a soldier holding a rifle fell to the ground in front of an old court- house building that now houses local government offices. Seconds after the monument fell, protesters began kicking the crumpled bronze monument. “I was a little bit shocked people could come here and come together like that,” said Isaiah Wallace, who is black. Wallace said he watched as others toppled the statue. He hopes other Confederate symbols elsewhere will follow.

Either way, North Korea may gain Casey Toth/The Herald-Sun Isaiah Wallace plays his guitar standing on the base that formerly supported a Confederate soldier statue after a group of protesters pulled it down during a rally Monday in Durham, N.C. Protesters toppled the nearly century-old statue of a Confederate soldier Monday at the rally against racism. The Durham protest was in response to a white na- tionalist rally held in Charlottesville, Va., over the weekend. even as both Koreas and the United States signaled their willing- ness to avert a deepening crisis, with each suggesting a path toward negotiations. The tentative interest in diplomacy follows unusually com- bative threats between President Donald Trump and North Korea amid worries that Pyongyang is nearing its long-sought goal of accurately being able to send a nuclear missile to the U.S. main- land. Next week’s start of U.S.-South Korean military exercises that enrage the North each year make it unclear, however, if diplo- macy will prevail. During an inspection of the North Korean army’s Strategic Forces, which handles the missile program, Kim praised the mil- itary for drawing up a “close and careful plan” and said he would watch the “foolish and stupid conduct of the Yankees” a little more before deciding whether to order the missile test, the North’s state- run Korean Central News Agency said. Kim appeared in pho- tos sitting at a table with a large map marked by a straight line between what appeared to be northeastern North Korea and Guam, and passing over Japan — apparently showing the missiles’ flight route. The missile plans were previously announced. Kim said North Korea would conduct the launches if the “Yankees persist in their extremely dangerous reckless actions on the Korean Peninsula and its vicinity,” and that the United States should “think reasonably and judge properly” to avoid shaming itself, the news agency said. Lobbing missiles toward Guam, a major U.S. military hub in the Pacific, would be a deeply provocative act from the U.S. perspective, and a miscalculation on either side could lead to a mil- itary clash. U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis said the United States would take out any such missile seen to be heading for American soil and declared any such North Korean attack could mean war. Top US military officer warns NKorea that US military ready SEOUL, South Korea — The top U.S. military officer said Monday that the United States wants to peacefully resolve a deep- ening standoff with North Korea but is also ready to use the “full range” of its military capabilities in case of provocation. The comments by Marine Corps Gen. Joseph Dunford in a series of meetings with senior South Korean military and political officials and the local media appeared to be an attempt to ease anx- iety over tit-for-tat threats between President Donald Trump and North Korea while also showing a willingness to back up Trump’s warnings if need be. Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is visit- ing South Korea, Japan and China after a week in which Trump declared the U.S. military “locked and loaded” and said he was ready to unleash “fire and fury” if North Korea continued to threaten the United States. North Korea, meanwhile, has threatened to lob four interme- diate-range missiles into the waters near Guam, a tiny U.S. ter- ritory about 2,000 miles from Pyongyang, North Korea’s capital.

Hussain Sajwani met with leaders in the two European nations and addressed local journalists, many of whom referred to his ties to President Donald Trump or simply called him “the Donald of Dubai.” Sajwani’s trips, as well as a recent deal in Oman, show that Trump’s business partner in Dubai wants to expand his develop- ment empire beyond the Mideast and a tower under construction in London. Enter Sajwani’s DAMAC Properties, which launched a new effort this week to sell Trump-branded villas at the golf course bearing the American president’s name. “My dream is as we have put our major, iconic tower in Lon- don, that we do repeat that in major gateway cities around the world,” Sajwani said in a July online video. “Tokyo, Toronto, New York, Paris, I don’t know. But that would be a dream — to grow DAMAC with its iconic brands around the world.” High-tech US plants offer jobs even as the laid-off struggle NORWOOD, Ohio — Herbie Mays is 3M proud, and it shows — in the 3M shirt he wears; in the 3M ring he earned after three decades at the company’s plant in suburban Cincinnati; in the way he shows off a card from a 3M supervisor, praising Mays as “a GREAT employee.” But it’s all nostalgia. Mays’ last day at 3M was in March. Bent on cutting costs and refocusing its portfolio, the company decided to close the plant that made bandages, knee braces and other health care supplies and move work to its plant in Mexico. At 62, Mays is unemployed and wants to work, though on the face of it he has plenty of opportunities. Barely 10 miles from his ranch-style brick home in this blue-collar city, GE Aviation has been expanding — and hiring. In the state-of-the-art laboratory in a World War II-era building the size of 27 football fields, workers use breakthrough technol- ogy to build jet engines that run on less fuel at higher temperatures. Bright flashes flare out as GE workers run tests with a robotic arm that can withstand 2,000 degrees.

But from Pyongyang’s perspec- tive and in the eyes of some U.S. military experts, Kim and his gen- erals have already won this round. Launch or not, Pyongyang has caused great drama and angst, riled U.S. President Donald Trump and alarmed America’s allies in Tokyo and Seoul. It could also set a precedent for more aggressive brinkmanship ahead. It comes as no surprise then that on Tuesday, as North Korea’s state media released photos of Kim and his military officers exam- ining the launch plan, replete with photos of the missiles’ flight path and a big satellite image of the U.S. territory’s Andersen Air Force Base, it also offered a seeming out. Kim, it said, wants to “watch a little more” before making a decision. The North’s plan is to launch four missiles into the waters around the U.S. Pacific territory: one to the north, one to the south, and one each east and west. Pyongyang is calling it an “envelop- ing fire” demonstration, but in military jargon it’s more commonly called “bracketing.” It was calculated to touch off a storm of anx- iety region-wide.
