” But all joking aside “
You’re right, of course - this is too serious for even gentle humor....
And your point is absolutely valid, about the Carter/Bush/Clinton-albright/Bush-rice/Obama-clinton model of NK relations no longer being applicable....
(I don’t remember whether Reagan had anything significant happen with NK during his Administration)
That being the case, it would appear that somebody needs to figure out, or establish, the new ‘roles/rules’, before this (more-or-less) accidentally sets of the World War that nobody (except for a few of our Keyboard Kommandos) wants to even contemplate.....
“Clinton-albright”
You mentioned Albright? And North Korea?
