Because North Korea is pathetic in a way Ahmadinejad never was.

Yes, they're brutal monsters who torture and kill with impunity, but we're in the third generation now and spoiled rich kids have always been tragic idiots.

This is the plan and I think it's very risky. The stopping and possible boarding and seizure of ships, even those violating sanctions, by the US or it's allies sounds like an international incident waiting to happen.

If they're doing this in international waters, isn't that piracy?

the chummier Moon and Kim get, the less Trump is likely to worry that the North might respond to a strike by bombarding Seoul.

No, I guarantee you that Trump et al already don't care in the slightest about a Northern bombardment of Seoul.

After they exchanged a few words at the beginning of the walk, I was wondering if Un realized he was going to get out of breath if they kept talking. A ~35 year old keeping pace with a senior citizen really isn't very impressive, but yeah he's pretty clearly not a small guy. I saw an analyst wondering if he was nervous because he seemed to be breathing heavily, but I think there's a simpler explanation.

I don't see why it's so controversial, I mean it's pretty blatant at this point that Bolton wants Kim to be brutally beaten and anally raped to death in a ditch by a bunch of men using the bayonets attached to their AK47s.

This is one thing Trump actually knows how to do*.

Building lovely hotels and having people connected to corrupt oligarchs pay huge amounts of cash for an apartment is how he rolls.

If Kim offers him a guaranteed 50% of his hotel filled at all time, paid for with with untraceable cash, Trump will get down on his knees and lick his loving platform shoes.

* I mean, not well, obviously. The investigation into him is proof of that.

So, if SK just says, "gently caress what the US wants, we're doing this whole peace thing ourselves because we're the ones who have to live with this poo poo and Trump's whole cabinet is one missed medication away from being found in the corner, playing with their own poo poo" and they go and actually broker a peace deal, what exactly can the US do beyond Trump's usual routine of vacillating impotently?

I mean, the SK government could save a massive amount of money by no longer having US bases on their soil and it would be one hell of a political coup. But the good kind, for once.

Their only question is whether the bases are worth keeping to fend off any potential future Chinese expeditionism.

Peace doesn't let the US wave its Toad-shaped dick about.

Doing stuff like this is a far better way to achieve lasting peace than whatever latest nasty crap Bolton has scooped out of Trump's adult diaper this week.

God, Trumps is just so pathetically desperate to outshine Obama.

Also stuff like the whole "this club is drugging random women at the bar and dragging them into back rooms to be raped by VIPs" is pretty loving bad even by entertainment industry standards.

They've just arrested a senior police chief who was helping cover it up, too.

Seungri was on Running Man about a month ago, even they were asking him why he seemed so reserved. Guess we know now - he's a serial rapist and drug dealer and his world was crumbling around him.

Apparently the current drills (as in the ones that started a couple of days ago) are working from a hypothetical situation involving counter-insurgency operations after North Korea has already been conquered.

Okay, let's pretend we just conquered the North. Hey, they're getting upset over this! Who could have possibly foreseen such a thing.

So, the stimulus cheque was an actual physical cheque being sent out in the mail?

Couldn't the government just have done a direct deposit in peoples' bank accounts?

When I do my taxes, I have to tell my government about all my accounts. My tax refund goes straight into the one I specify.

Or am I expecting way too much from the US government?
