"According to the (Washington) Post..."

That byline should be cause for skepticism of the entire story, especially in light of the MSM's persistent narrative to undermine President Trump's agreement with North Korea. My gut says it's BS.

True that but the resident “Chicken Hawks” praying for a war so they can strut around would rather believe the MSM. I say lets put them on the front lines if it ever came to the point where it was an actual conflict, how long do you suspect before they start crying to come home.

War is hell, and it is no game for soft hearts. Look at at all the soldiers we lost in Viet Nam because somebody wanted a war to make money and it, like the prior conflict in Korea ended in a stalemate

How about Stars and Stripes.
They are cited too
Also, are you saying this did not occur?

I’m a bit confused.

Today’ Joongang Ilbo Daily news from Seoul English edition. Major South Korean paper, journalist Sarah Kim wrote it. I have her email addrsss if you’d like—you could confirm with her:

“North fails to show up for talks in Panmunjom
July 13,2018
The United States and North Korea were supposed to discuss the repatriation of the remains of U.S. soldiers who died during the 1950-53 Korean War on Thursday but couldn’t because the North Koreans didn’t show up.

The talks would have come a month after the summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Singapore on June 12. The meeting was arranged during U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s visit to Pyongyang last week, over July 6 and 7.

The U.S. side, led by Department of Defense and United Nations Command officials, was expected to hold a meeting with their North Korean counterparts that morning at the truce village of Panmunjom at the inter-Korean border at the demilitarized zone. “
