Trump has made it very clear, denuclearize and reap the benefits, or don't, and reap the consequences.

Only a fool would believe NK is actually having a "come to Jesus" moment and now wants give up their nukes and become a "normal" country.

They're playing the same old game of freaking out the world, then suddenly doing a 180 and gathering up concessions from their suddenly relieved and hopeful adversaries.

NK knows they are weak and don't stand a chance in an all-out war... but they also know that nobody wants to actually take them out because there is little to gain and the costs would be high to do so.

So they play games... and so do we.

All the Norks respect is strength, not Obama like weakness, and appeasement. Go Trump.

Trump is the only president who is being played by Kim Jong Un. All other presidents knew the games he plays and didn't want to join in. Trump and Kim Jong Un are both crazy narcissists who want to feel important

Gaddafi was hated by many Libyans. There's no need to become an apologist. My dad was there back in 1999 and he told me that lots of people wanted him gone.

You do know that China is a nuclear power and an ally of NKorea.

Also, you do know that if China gets involved, Russia will also defend China.

That would be an absolutely apocalyptic nuclear disaster!

All because some idiot decided to demonstrate strength as opposed to diplomacy...

get real. NK has played every president like a violin with their sabre rattling, and then being appeased when money and supplies were given over to shut them up. like a mother giving in to a two year old to make the kid stop their crap.

trump isnt having any of that. at this point obama or bush would have sent someone to make a deal to appease kim, and then a few months later kim would have started back up again.

appeasement doesnt work with dictators, it only empowers them. trump has laid on the sanctions, and gotten china to lay them on as well, and that is cutting into NKs economy hard, and kim needs to make it stop without getting destroyed in the process.

also remember it was kim that called for the meeting in singapore.
