North Korea said it could stop its nuclear tests in exchange for signing a peace treaty with the U.S. and a stop to annual military exercises between the U.S. and South Korea.
The North's statement carried by the state media late Friday was a repeat of past offers that have been rejected by the U.S., which wants Pyongyang to commit to a complete abandonment of nuclear weapons.

Demand!! Yo fatboy with the idiotic haircut, you are in no position to demand anything.
What’s up with that? Is lil’ Kimmy running out of grass and bark to feed to the Peasants?
He knows he has Kerry in his corner.
"What you're doing is bad for business. Knock it off!"
Tru dat

Alright. Obama can give away the farm and Ted can vote to reduce the number of Senators that need to approve by half.
Can’t beat that with a stick.
The United States should disengage itself from internal Korean affairs.
How about we stop involving ourselves in foreign civil wars, for a change?
Sure; let Russia and Red China share “world police” duties. They’ll leave us alone, won’t they.
He’s jealous of the deal Iran got...wants sanctions lifted and $150B like Iran got.

I wouldn’t give a scratch of an American soldier’s fingernail or a single Taxpayer nickel to save the entire Korean peninsula from their own devices. Only idiots become third parties in civil wars.

To give countenance to stabbing our allies in the back by refusing to honor our commitments to our allies is to countenance Obama.
China is not the Kim dynasty’s enemy, nor vice versa. Neither ally will ever attack each other.

America does not have the money anymore, nor the blood.
