The South Koreans have really worked hard to make this happen ever since the Olympics. I hope it works out.
 
I have been praying very hard for this for some months and I’m sure I’m not the only one.

Everyone was so sure that Trump getting elected meant nuclear war with North Korea…I chose to pray instead and trust in Jesus, Mary and St. Joseph.

Thank you Jesus! Thank you to Our Lady of Peace and St. Joseph also for their prayers.

Let’s keep praying and keep this momentum going. I hope one day all the North Korean people are free of oppression and have enough to eat.
 
Let’s hope so. The US has been at war with Korea since before I was born.

The US has had troops on the North Korean border since before I was born. Trump isn’t insane. He isn’t going to start a nuclear war. In the beginning of that war the US actually considered using scores of nukes. Those people were madmen intent on destroying the world.

The reality is communism, which liberals want to impose on us, is a terrible economic system. The people always end up poor and starving. It kills itself given enough time. You just have to wait it out. Kim has seen the rest of the world. He knows what communism has done to his country. But, he is a politician. He doesn’t want to give up power anymore than any American politician would.
 
They’ve been working hard on this for decades, since before the 88 Olympics.
This has always been in the hands of the North
 
Yeah, you don’t have to tell me about the Korean War. My father served in it after he was done serving in WWII.

Edited to add, it was in Korea that he saw the ship next to his blown up with lots of men killed. Many years later he said he felt he’d been living on borrowed time ever since that day.

Yes. I hope that North Korea ends its oppressive regime. I don’t know how that happens though, with Kim Jung Un not being prosecuted for crimes against humanity.

Well, none of the Russian rulers were either and we know how that turned out. Same with China. Seems a nation has to face its evils in order to recover a moral sense.

I think the international community would be willing to cut any deal giving top leadership an escape, if it stopped the crimes.

So many senior people are complicit over several generations, it get’s hard to lay blame
 
Hard to reverse it as well. North Korea’s situation is not determined by one “madman”. First of all, Kim is probably not “mad” at all, but entirely sane. But he would be allied with many hundreds of military and civilian apparatchiks who have committed unspeakable evils. Such people are going to be very wary of any loosening of control or rationale for their continuing to keep the country under an iron grip and in a fabricated “state of siege”.

One remembers what happened to the Ceaucescus, and I’m sure that lesson wasn’t lost on Kim and Co.

I think it had more to do with that secret meeting Kim had with China. China may have offered some incentives that were way to good to pass up if they kissed and made up with South Korea.
 
Just stop. There isn’t a liberal in the western world that wants to impose communism. Try at least to understand peoples’ world views before you impose ridiculous and false attributions to them.
 
I will say this. If the two Koreas and their hostility and the peninsula is de-nuclearized, Trump will deserve a large amount of credit. Belligerence has its uses.

China has always been the string puller on this one.

If it comes to pass, I expect a u-turn on our recent china trade sanctions
