As for NK, look....Un has NOTHING to gain from attacking the US. This is the FARTHEST thing from his mind. However, the THREAT to do so, has always resulted in money, food, lifting of sanctions, etc. for both his regime, and those before him...so is it really surprising he keeps doing so? It really shouldn't be. Our past administrations have done nothing to dissuade him from this, and have always given in to such demands (usually behind closed doors).
The wisest course is to simply ignore him. DON'T cover him in the media. DON'T make statements even acknowledging his existence, etc. Let him spend himself into oblivion if he likes. Then, when he can't take it anymore...let HIM call for the meeting, and let HIM be the one begging others to come to the table. Only THEN, can we approach this issue from a position of strength, and have the ability to make ACTUAL demands.
I doubt it too. I guess 2 or 3 wars, and hundreds of billions of dollars wasted in worthless ******** countries isn't enough for some people. War is just big business now days. I bought a lot of defense stocks on 9/11 and they have all done quite well.Except he's smart enough to keep his soldiers fed and paid.
When that DOESN'T happen though, a coup is inevitable. And Un may be crazy, but he's not stupid. Just before that is the case, he will come BEGGING to the table, and crying like a little babe, if we just let it play out. Thing is, is our leadership smart enough to realize this? I have my doubts....
And NK will probably come out of this meeting with billions of US taxpayers $$$ pledged, if they would just give up their nuclear program.My bet is that this planned NK meeting is exactly what I predicted....
Un coming begging to the table. Obviously, it won't "look" like that in public, nor will the US call him out on it, but it is what it is... NK extended the invite, not the other way around.
