“Kim Jong-Uns gambit to extract money to keep his dictatorship afloat is going to work.”......
Send him his funds in the form a a BIG BOMB! Cut his annual “welfare requests”.
One of the things few in the press consider is we, as the major part of the UN Korean Police Action, are still at war with the NORKS, we have a truce, no peace treaty. We treat it as a treaty, they treat it as a halt to shooting but continue threaten rekindling shooting because they know the UN will do nothing, not even send in the blue helmets if shooting starts up again. We unfortunately have about 30K military personnel still in Korea so are on the hook, more so with the jerk in the White House who would gladly turn them into pawns in his effort to capture the house in 14.
