Kim Jong Un agrees to end war, agrees to denuclearization of Korean Peninsula
NBC News ^ | April 27, 2018 | Mac William Bishop, Stella Kim and Alastair Jamieson

Posted on 04/27/2018 4:38:20 AM PDT by deks

The leaders of North and South Korea signed a historic declaration Friday pledging "no more war" and a common goal of "complete denuclearization" on the Korean Peninsula.

The countries, which technically remain in a state of war, heralded the deal as part of "a new era of peace" after a historic summit.

North Korea's Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in also vowed to "cease all hostile acts" and to "transform the Demilitarized Zone into a peace zone." The two leaders embraced, and Moon said he would visit Pyongyang in the fall.

So you’ve seen this before, have you, Mr. Angry Pessimist?

You’ve seen the two heads of state meet at the boundary? Shake hands? Cross over into each others country together? Share food? Plant a tree together? Establish a hotline to each other? Make a joint announcement together? Signed a monument together?

Hell, just being together? You’ve seen all this before?

Huh, that’s weird. The rest of us must have missed all that from before.

Frank Zappa was a guest on Carson/Leno (I think as guest host) in the late 80s. He was happy to see the Berlin wall coming down but he didn’t want to see President Reagan (or the Pope of the Poles or...) getting any credit. He thought that all credit was due the German labor.

In my opinion having had to deal with his granted Father in the early 1990s as part of the NAVY, I believe Grandbaby Kim had no choice on this one.

Things inside North Korea have been changing for the last 2 years, the propaganda broadcast by the South have become more effective, many young military conscripts have out right fled military service at the DMZ and China/Russia borders, the strong response by Trump to little Kim’s rhetoric has caused him to loss much face at home & in Asia, the overall lack of food in the nation is at a critical stage present(the old joke among us Salts was, “If the North invade the South, we could stop them cold by bombing with Big Mac’s) & lastly many North Koreans (especially the young)have no faith in baby Kim as they did with his Grandfather and Father, no matter how many family members & old hardliners he killed.

What we witnessed today was not totally unexpected, Trump just simply sped up the time table by at least a full 10 years. Thank you President Trump!!!!

“Multiple times they have signed these pledges and multiple times the North reverts to its aggressive position.”

First time they have done it with a Trump watching them.

If barry was in office, the media would make him a saint. OUR President will receive NO credit for this monumental event.

A North Korea, treaty and peace agreement between North and South is a real problem for Tehran. They will be Alinsky style targeted, frozen, isolated, paralyzed, and ridiculed.

This is a big deal, Joe Biden style.

Nothing like this has ever happened before. Of course it must be monitored and followed up on — but the Norks have never done anything like this.

Because Trump blew up Kim’s nuclear mountain.

How it’s done in the real world.

Flashback to McCain on Trump's handling if Kim:

AUG 8, 2017 7:01 PM EDT John McCain took aim at President Trump’s recent fiery rhetoric on North Korea, claiming his words will only ratchet up the heat for a possible confrontation. Following a Washington Post report that North Korea now has a warhead that can fit inside its missiles, the President issued a stark warning, stating while on vacation at his golf course in New Jersey that if the country makes any more threats to the United States, “they will be met with the fire and the fury like the world has never seen.” “I take exception to the President’s comments because you gotta be able to do what you say you’re gonna do,” the Arizona Senator told KTAR radio Tuesday, in an appearance with his daughter Meghan. “I don’t think that’s a way you attack an issue and a challenge like this.” McCain said he was unsure if that rhetoric constituted a threat of military action, but said that most previous presidents wouldn’t make a threat unless they were ready to act. “I don’t know what he’s saying and I’ve long ago given up trying to interpret what he says,” the Senator told KTAR. “It’s not terrible but it’s kind of the classic Trump in that he overstates things.”
