With limos and private train, Kim Jong Un travels in style

It's a short hop from Pyongyang to Vladivostok by plane. There's even a semi-regular flight. But for his first summit meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has once again opted to go by train... Kim is reportedly traveling with a big entourage — possibly more than 200 people — and lots of supplies. His train, unmistakable with its dark green paint job and yellow piping, is perfect for that. It's built like a tank. Its cars are equipped with advanced communications and flat-screen TVs so he can give orders and receive news and briefings while on the way. It's also believed to be capable of meeting other special needs... For security reasons, officials reportedly make sure to collect Kim's bodily waste and even his cigarette butts to prevent foreign intelligence agencies from collecting and analyzing them for clues into the leader's health.

This sole incident brings into sharp focus the ludicrous premise, the incredible theoretical stretch, that somehow North Korea under the Kim Regime and the current Workers Party will denuclearize and do so sincerely. To denuclearize to our and the world's satisfaction, there must be transparency, for nothing can be taken for granted nor trusted. NOTHING. Transparency means extreme openness.

With a regime with their leader abroad, agents and aides who "make sure to collect Kim's bodily waste and even his cigarette butts to prevent foreign intelligence agencies from collecting and analyzing them for clues into the leader's health." it answers in a nutshell whether they will denuclearize or not, or come clean on all that they have.

This is an absolute farce, a sham, for the last 12 months. We are subjectively projecting way too much optimism on them for the objective reality they represent.

Somebody will need to be executed for this f/up.

Maybe even that person’s entire immediate family too. I’m not making this up.

(How this evil, stinking despicable fat creature could be anyone’s “friend” is way beyond my pay grade.)
