"Fake news"?

(I don't think so.)

Not everything is "fake news" just because it does not conform to the narrative. Hope is not a strategy.

This seems to be how Koreans negotiate. If anyone has a chance of getting them to give up nuclear weapons, it’s Trump. If not, I guess we can destroy them with a couple of SLBMs.

As a Christian, I believe “hope” is the only strategy. But we have to “hope” in the way God wants us to, not our idea of hope.

I am half Korean. Grandmother on my mom's side is from the North.

I notice that people who decry any negative news about Kim Jong Un also think anything negative about Russia or Syria's Assad (a major NK ally) is also fake news. *rolleyes* And what's ironic is that alongside China, Russia is DPRK's biggest enabler and historically supercedes China in that regard.

Freepers like TigerLikesRooster, etc left.

I was wondering where he was!

I believe this is the Chinese telling Kim what to say and do...in retaliation for Trump’s hardnose Chinese tariffs negotiations. Watch and see how quickly Kim becomes friendly again if Trump softens his stanch.

North Korea warned the US in a recent letter that talks are "again at stake and may fall apart," adding that it may resume "nuclear and missile activities"

President Donald Trump unexpectedly canceled... The decision was preceded by a "belligerent" letter...

...failed "to meet (North Korean) expectations in terms of taking a step forward to sign a peace treaty,"

...

The Washington Post reported Monday. "The exact contents of the message are unclear"

The quotes imply exact content. What total BS.

I truly wonder who runs the country of North Korea and any form of succession plan if anything happened to their leader...

>>>”Fake news?”

Must be:
“There is no longer a nuclear threat from North Korea.”

I think we need to knock down Kim's next test launch with a missile from one of our Aegis Class Destroyers.

Perhaps we're patient and only shoot if the missile is on track to exceed certain parameters?

Is North Korea wanting a more incremental approach, with small trade deals for each move to get rid of its nuclear weapons facilities?
