Pulling together multiple facts from multiple locations sometimes can be a challenge especially when just one of the event warrant significant effort to remedy and the event attracts becoming getting consumed in involvement with that process.

These are recent 3 factual events in a summary, that everyone here in the U.S., if not the world need to know:

• Milwaukee, Wisconsin: Woman assaulted around the middle of April 2017

• Portland, Oregon: incident where the result left 2 men fatally stabbed due to their intervening of an assault on a woman on a local train; occurrence in May

• Sterling, Virginia: IHOP to ADAMS Center, in an early Sunday morning, assault on a teenage female in June 2017

The events have some common denominators to them.

Figuring out how to prevent such situations is a better arch.

This article is subject to being revised with further detail.

The United States Vice President visiting the demilitarized zone at a very sensitive time in the timeline of the Koreas region since the end of the Korean War.


Why might this be a sensitive time?

There has been discussion by news sources having to do with recent missile tests in the past week performed by North Korea.

There might be concern that some of the crimes against political prisoners has been ongoing since long before the current leader of North Korea could have possibly had ascertainment of them.

Developments pertinent North Korea that currently sit salient has aspects two-pronged, one, punishment of political prisoners and rumored experiments on humans that are archaic and obsolete in today's acceptance of what is civilized, and second, nuclear capability, whereat the trust factor such as to potentialities of the capability is toward the forefront of international peace agenda.

What the precise reality is on a day to day basis in terms of what is pragmatically going on inside the geopolitical borders of North Korea, might be somewhat elusive to the world outside that Nation.  This all while dimensions in the South China Sea have hot seat issues now, namely the prospects of oil, and territorial disputes. 

The sum of the entirety is a recipe that attracts intervention to attain and maintain at least an understanding circumscribing the developments of the region, for instance so that the U.S. knows how to keep our deck of cards straight on the international table and able to not just compete, economically, militarily and standard facets, but also survive.  The reference to survival could ask, what would happen if the price per barrel of oil dropped so low, ten times lower than ever before, from the markets we have been getting the oil from the last 50 years, to compete against oil sales coming from underwater off-shore drilling in the South China Sea?  Maybe good, maybe bad, likely a combination that would have different kinds of repercussions, perhaps the stock market, perhaps how large oil corporations run daily gas station operations, as hypothetical.

It spells out there may be a desire to have transparency in a region that historically has plausibly been shrouded to the world outside of it and not been transparent by nature.

What is needed is needed; as far as trying to get a hold of secret mystical mysteries out of anything and everything east of the east coast of China to fulfill ambitions of new museum exhibits, those might have to be left out of the equation, reference peace and economic equilibrium, at least for now, especially if they are not necessary and going to upset the natives there.



Posted the evening of April 16th 2016 E.S.T.

Many of the concerns and facts listed here are well known, consolidated all in one place.  This is a summary outline, lengthy dissertation papers could be written on the subject, however, a lot of it has already been done.

Looking at the last 20 years or so, well known Middle East leaders:

• Yasser Arafat

• Saddam Hussein

• Hosni Mubarak

• Ayatollah Khomeni
  

• Muammar Qaddhafi

• Kings of Saudi Arabia

There is a situation in Syria.  One aspect that saliently sits out in the list of well known Arab Region or Middle East leaders, is the current leader of Syria is perhaps the youngest of the group.

Aside from Saudi Arabia, in Syria, the current Assad is in power perhaps to some degree due to that his father was in power previously.

The multitude of dynamics going on, Assad might be grappling with trying to juggle a bunch of different weights while the whole thing is on pins and needles, all while he might not have necessarily had the choice of selection of what everything is that was put on his plate, on the plate.  Reference to 'dropped in his lap'.

Over here in the U.S. many talk about Assad as if he is the only man in the government, this concurrent the reference to be a younger in age leader.  What this is broken down to in simpler words is, when anything happens, all fingers seem to point to Assad the individual. 
Is that the reality, does he himself deserve that treatment?


Synopsis on bombings and air strikes:
The U.S. still to this day has 2 big events in its history, that still drag around everywhere we go

• Napalm during the Vietnam War

• The bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima

Some in the U.S. do not wish to be viewed as the entity behind the massive ugliness of a pyrotechnics event, certainly not a renewed reputation of that, nor the wish to last another 100 years or so.  Therefore, some might feel, that if a solution can be found that does not involve nuclear, air strikes, or bombings, to do the absolute best to use those other alternates first.

In the U.S. today, it is an arrestable offense to even speak or shout out in a public place that a person has a firearm or threatening the use of one illegally, even if that person does not actually have a firearm in their possession; that was part of an effort to reduce firearm violence.

In similar vein, threatening the use of nuclear activity and other high powered from the air weaponry use, does not always sit well in the international community.

There seems to be talk of nuclear usage based on gleanings from news sites having to do with North Korea.

Incidentally, like in the Syria, the leadership of North Korea has perhaps dropped into the lap of the current leader post his father.

Accepted leader facts:

• Assad born mid 1965, in office since 2000, came to office in his 30s

• Kim Jong born in 1984, currently about the same age as Assad was when he came to power.  His childhood was at least ten years after Vietnam, and over sixty years since the end of the Korean War summer of 1953.

That a younger leader, whether North Korea, or Syria, or anywhere else in the world, might have areas where sets of responsibility that were messy from the start up in nature set upon them, is not a situation where others taking full advantage of seizing the opportunity to chastise them every time something goes wrong, is ethical.

Human life and civilization is not a script from war games, or battleship board game.  Situations of land 'a' did 'x', so land 'b' does 'y' in response, in reality, having an assessment of fuller depth of all that is going on, is more respectable to have, than just knee jerk reaction, black-and-white action and reaction.  Sometimes the latter can appear superficial and even bullying.

There are a few developments that could happen which seems like they have not, or at least not all that pushed for, in regard to Syria and North Korea.  (Making no mistake, there have been inspections or the call to do so before.)

• Transparency to the decisions going on in the government as a whole, to monitoring entities
• Does everyone, for instance in the U.S., sitting at their television sets and online news computer device, know, the names and faces of the top ten decision makers in the two governments, North Korea and Syria, as readily as they know Bashar Assad, and Kim Jong?
• Perhaps getting that accomplished first, then pointing fingers, as to who is performing activity they should not be, in that larger perspective; culling out who did what and who is responsible for what wrong doing might be more easily identified.

• Has an emergency talk taken place with all parties present, leaders of U.S., Russia, Syria, and Iran; one that the public can see and formulate decisions about?

• Major international law and rule changes and advents, such as mandatory embargoes, suspense of recognized government until inspections, transparent nuclear inspections, thorough investigations with 'something in writing' that attests to who pulled the trigger, who was in the airplane dropping gas, who was feeding women poison in prisons that cause them to die.  (Has that taken place to a furthered level?)
  

Events in the past 40 years thereabout:

• Oil embargoes here in the U.S.
• Remember the gas lines that wrapped around blocks, oil crisis of 1973?
• In series of events after events, could that be what could happen, if events in the Middle East keep unfolding
  

The courses of what happened next, after a Middle East country received air strikes from the U.S.

• Qaddhafi, and Libya, there was airstrike in about 1986; Qaddhafi was not deposed until about 25 years later

• Air strikes on Iraq; Saddam Hussein was not deposed until about 20 years later

• Post the bombing on the Japan islands in the 1940s, public outcry is still in existence, here are people alive today that were alive when those bombs were dropped; trying to develop a peace between nations is still ongoing, such as by leaders that had not yet yet seen their first days of childhood until well after that.
  
• Jean-Luc Melenchon running for French leadership, is already discussing America might be doing a 'criminal act'; seizing opportunity for criticism at the first sight of aerial weapons
• The last development the U.S. could want is condemnation from European allies
• The disaster, is a double whammy of condemnation, abandonment, and permanent scrutiny, by both European allies and the Arab World
  

• No blood for oil/ no blood for diamonds, slogans and campaigns
• Slogan/campaign used in the construct of South Africa during the apartheid era; diamond oppression ongoing in other areas of Africa today. War with Iraq.
• Some here in the U.S. do not want to be at the receiving end of criticism that what could perceived by others or taunted by outsiders as the root, base motivation of interaction with the Middle East at all, is oil, and now more missiles are seen flying over the Middle East, whether they be they are for the cause of justice or not
  

Assertions and seizing opportunities, 'kicking the cat' in the international leadership sphere:

• The world got upset when the Nazi power group took off too far in the late 1930s and 1940s, when they asserted themselves as powers that have the authority to cause casualties of masses and masses of people, and that the justification for those actions rests with themselves approving of it

• Left over weapons after strife or warfare, where traders attempt to seize the leftover materials, and use it to build weapons, or use the base material for sales to make money; this has occurred during or after:
• Vietnam War, ended roughly early to middle 1970s
• War between the Soviets and Afghanistan, 1970s on through at least a decade, and well known terrorist groups got a hold of some of the weapons
• Libya, ongoing

Lastly, proximity of missiles near Muslim Holy Sites:

• Already interwoven in the general thread of anything having to do with warfare in the Middle East, Arabian Peninsula, Arab lands or regions, one of the chief reasons why the suspense is so thick when weapons and fighting there or near there is a subject matter, is because of the sheer number of miles it is to Muslim holy sites.  The Muslim World simply is very wary of having missiles fly ever so slightly off course in the region, because of a concern that they could accidentally hit key sites.  Of course the closer missiles come to the sites, the more worried everyone in the Muslim World gets, from leader on to individuals walking through town, or who cannot even walk.

Afterword
These are the major points for now; this article might be revised or added onto
written and published Sunday April 9, 2017

Chinese President Xi Jinping is scheduled to visit the Unites States midweek, talks with leaders.

Setting the record straight:
The definition of a paradox is a seemingly contradictory statement, or it is self-contradictory.  In easy to understand words, it is when two ideas that make up the sentence contradict each other and the whole of the statement winds up making no sense.

The Nation's Capital is not a factory that produces missing female teens in numbers of 2000 each year, irrespective of how far back the statistics go, 3 years, 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, and so forth.

Despite the fact that it has happened over and over again, it is not grounds to get comfortable with the situation, and accept it as a 'new norm'.

In recent weeks, there has been a storm brewing as to why somewhere between 2 dozen and 25 teenage females, or ages thereabout, 'disappeared' in a very short span of time.  Then came a rebound that it is in a doubtful zone, a gray area, as to whether the disappearances were the decisions of own

Forthrightly, the Lyons disappearance case, that took place outside Wheaton/Westfield Mall in the Silver Spring area back in 1975, a case still ongoing, is being looked at with renewed scrutiny, right through here, concurrent the disappearances of the teenagers from DC in March 2017, both the sets of disappearances are within a few minutes drive from each other; essentially close to the same area.

DC area and Maryland residents are sick of the games.


The gray area, as to whether teen girls disappeared the result of their own decision, perhaps an outgrowth of a maturity stage, is one of the games, this where the human trafficking, the manipulation starts.  If it was an easy clear-cut situation of a female was coerced under force in broad daylight with plenty of witnesses, then it would be easy to pinpoint the root of the problem, clamp down, and punish the perpetrators.  It is when there is some cloudiness, that gives enough wiggle room for a perpetrator to escape direct blame, and direct punishment, that the perpetrators can make their escape, and have more time to continue in the crimes.

It is not just that simple either; some of the perpetrators are women, not just intimidating men with grubby beards; and in some situations, the perpetrator is a family member or related to, which softens the blame when the finger has to be pointed to the perpetrator by the victim.  The likelihood that the niece of a perpetrator that has been raised and fed by the older female will press charges that result in jail is reduced.

The game of manipulation.

Not sure whether the teenage female or girl ran away, or was kidnapped, in today's terminology, 'trafficked'?,- let us look the other way, this is just a runaway situation that happens a couple of thousand times a year, no big deal, keep going to the mall, keep partying, drive to work the next morning, and all is okay, meanwhile the seat of government is an embarrassment far beyond the scope of what can be summed up here; that is not the perspective to hold on solving the situation.

It is an age old situation now, unfortunately, of teenagers disappearing from DC, especially the numbers being comparatively high when the victims can be described as African American or having similar outward features.

The solution might have in it, the realization that that, there is, a push and pull to relax the response to 'disappearances', and that middle-ground gray area cases, runaway or under coercion, needs to be categorized and put in jar that indicates that is the dynamic of the situation.


Afterword
Title of this story was revised to end with 'to the Disappearances' for easier understanding of the idea of what is being stated
