There was indeed a huge buzz in the Jew spew media these last few weeks with the announcement that US President Drumpf and North Korean Chairman Kim Jong-un were to meet in Singapore on June 12th..... Everyone was hoping that this would signal a new relationship between the two adversarial states and signal a true end to the Korean conflict that has never had any peace treaty signed since the ceasefire agreements back in 1953! Well, I knew it was too good to be true, for the criminal US government was making absolutely impossible demands on North Korea before this scheduled meeting that the North Koreans would be fools to accept... Drumpf's administration and his criminal cronies were basically demanding that North Korea abandon its nuclear weapons program with only "their word" that they would not invade North Korea in return.... And I knew that it would be suicidal for North Korea to give up their nuclear deterrent that keeps the US at bay, since the US has NEVER kept their word at all in the past to other nations such as Iraq and even Libya that surrendered their own "weapons of mass destruction" in return for a "guarantee" that the US would not invade....NO nation on Earth should ever take the US at its "word" as a matter of fact!And now, just today, the Drumpf administration put forward a letter to North Korea where they say that they would NOT be meeting with Kim Jong-un on the scheduled date of June the 12th, and instead are now claiming that they will meet "sometime in the future"! In fact I want to present the transcript of that "official" letter that was sent today from Drumpf to Kim here for everyone to see for themselves:Kim Jong UnChairman of the State Affairs Commissionof the Democratic People’s Republic of KoreaPyongyangDear Mr. Chairman:We greatly appreciate your time, patience, and effort with respect to our recent negotiations and discussions relative to a summit long sought by both parties, which was scheduled to take place on June 12 in Singapore. We were informed that the meeting was requested by North Korea, but that to us is totally irrelevant. I was very much looking forward to being there with you. Sadly, based on the tremendous anger and open hostility displayed in your most recent statement, I feel it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long-planned meeting. Therefore, please let this letter serve to represent that the Singapore summit, for the good of both parties, but to the detriment of the world, will not take place. You talk about nuclear capabilities, but ours are so massive and powerful that I pray to God they will never have to be used.I felt a wonderful dialogue was building up between you and me, and ultimately, it is only that dialogue that matters. Someday, I look very much forward to meeting you. In the meantime, I want to thank you for the release of the hostages who are now home with their families. That was a beautiful gesture and was very much appreciated.If you change your mind having to do with this most important summit, please do not hesitate to call me or write. The world, and North Korea in particular has lost a great opportunity for lasting peace and great prosperity and wealth. This missed opportunity is a truly sad moment in history.Sincerely yours,Donald J. TrumpPresident of the United States of AmericaI have been wondering what brought about this sudden backing off by the US to meet with Kim, and I found a pretty good article from the Moon of Alabama website, at www.moonofalabama.org, where apparently that psychotic John Bolton may indeed have been behind the sabotaging of this planned meeting... Here is that article from Moon of Alabama here:May 24, 2018
How John Bolton Sabotaged The North Korea Talks
U.S. President Trump just canceled the planned summit with North Korea's chairman Kim Jong-Un. The two were supposed to meet on June 12 in Singapore. In a letter to Kim Jong-un, released to the media, Trump accused North Korea of hostile statements which, according to him, make the summit impossible:
Sadly, based on the tremendous anger and open hostility displayed in your most recent statement, I fell it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long planned meeting.
Since the very first summit talk National Security Advisor John Bolton set impossibly high expectations for the results. Trump fell for it.The various 'hostile statements' go back to remarks by Bolton who has for some timecompared disarmament of North Korea to Libya. On April 29 Bolton again asserted that the 'complete de-nuclearization' of North Korea would follow the 'Libya model'. North Korea never really offered to 'de-nuclearize'. It rejects the 'Libya model' for two reasons:
- When Libya made peace with the U.S. it was not a nuclear capable state which North Korea is. North Korea demands to be seen as equal to other nuclear armed states.
- Libya's transfer of the little nuclear production equipment it had was followed a few years later by a full fledged war waged by France, the U.K. and the U.S. against Libya and its government under Muhammad Ghaddafi. The war destroyed the country. North Korea has no intent to allow a repeat of such treason.
North Korea pushed back against the Bolton statement. On May 16 the White House made amends by not endorsing what Bolton said:
Referring to the Libya comparison, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Wednesday that she hadn't "seen that as part of any discussions so I'm not aware that that's a model that we're using."I haven't seen that that's a specific thing. I know that that comment was made. There's not a cookie cutter model on how this would work."
But a day later Donald Trump was asked about the Libya comparison and he seemed to agree with it:
“The model, if you look at that model with Gaddafi, that was a total decimation. We went in there to beat him. Now that model would take place if we don’t make a deal, most likely. But if we make a deal, I think Kim Jong-un is going to be very, very happy.”
We called that the 'art of the mafia deal': "Sign here or we will kill you." Signing under threat is something North Korea will never do.The U.S. media played down Trump's talk as somewhat off-the-cuff. North Korea did not react to it. The summit train was still on track.But on May 21 Vice President Pence revived the issue in an interview with Fox News:
PENCE: We really hope that Kim Jong-un will seize the opportunity to dismantle his nuclear weapons program and do so by peaceable means. You know, there were some talk about the Libya model last week. And you know, as the president made clear, you know, this will only end like the Libya Model ended if Kim Jong-un doesn't make a deal.MACCALLUM: Some people saw that as a threat.PENCE: Well, I think it's more of a fact. President Trump made it clear the United States of America under his leadership is not going to tolerate the regime in North Korea possessing nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles that threaten the United States and our allies. We've made it clear that we are continuing to bring economic and diplomatic pressure to bear on North Korea that all options are on the table to achieve that end.
It was clear from the beginning that North Korea would not negotiate a complete de-nuclearization and would not talk while under such a threat. As the Washington Post noted: The more Pence and Trump say ‘Libya,’ the angrier North Korea gets.The continuation of the Libya comparison was now a tactic to avoid the little prepared summit talks while blaming North Korea for the failure. The response from North Korea to Pence's remarks was quite salty but not overly hostile. Unlike Trump it did not threaten "total decimation":
Choe Son Hui, the DPRK's vice foreign minister, said she would put forward a suggestion to DPRK top leader Kim Jong Un for reconsidering the DPRK-U.S. summit scheduled for June 12 if the United States continues with hostile remarks and actions, according to the Korean Central News Agency....Calling the remarks of Pence "ignorant and stupid," she said that Pence should seriously consider the "terrible consequences of his words" before making such remarks."We could surmise more than enough what a political dummy he is as he is trying to compare the DPRK, a nuclear weapon state, to Libya that has simply installed a few items of equipment and fiddled around with them," she said.
Trump's cancellation letter refers to that statement.The cancellation comes hours after North Korea, in the presence of a dozen international journalists, blew up several tunnels it had used for nuclear tests. This was a confidence building measure even while it is of little practical value. North Korea is mountainous and has several more tunnels it can use for further nuclear tests.I now expect another phase of huffing and puffing from both sides. The U.S. will do more fly-bys with nuclear capable bombers and push for more sanctions. North Korea will respond with more nuclear and missile tests.Trump had expected a fast victory and probably even a total de-nuclearization of North Korea. He dreamed of a Nobel Peace Prize. But North Korea had offered de-nuclearization only as a long term aspiration for the whole world. Giving up its nuclear capabilities would be suicidal as the U.S. will not honor any security guarantees it might give in exchange. Trump proved such when he canceled the JCPOA deal with Iran.When the summit between North and South Korea took place on April 27, I had identifiedseveral potential spoilers for a disarmament and peace process. John Bolton was one of them. His introduction of the 'Libya model', which Trump and Pence who are both novices in international talks then took up, sabotaged the deal.The largest known rare earth deposit of this world will continued to be out of Washington's reach.Posted by b on May 24, 2018 at 11:59 AM OK, WHY am I not in the least bit surprised by this? This criminal John Bolton who claims that he is the "national security advisor" for Drumpf has indeed been working overtime to destroy any chances for a peaceful settlement on the Korean peninsula and has been the one behind the absolutely insane demands that the US is trying to push on the North Koreans...Lets face the facts here.... The demands that the US were making on the North Koreans were impossible to meet and there was no way in hell that Kim would ever surrender his nation to such atrocious demands... It would have been suicide for North Korea!And here we are with North Korea doing everything possible to show that they can keep their word.. They were destroying their nuclear test sites and blowing up the tunnel accesses to those sites as well.... But again, the US demand for total disarmament based upon the stupid "Libya" model was an impossibility and therefore even if this meeting did take place in Singapore, there would not have been any sane "agreements" made.... This "withdrawal" from the planned meeting apparently was obviously done to "save face" for the US itself, that will now try to hurl accusations that they had to "call off" the meeting because Kim was "Unreasonable".....Well, there you have it... That planned meeting between Kim and Drumpf is now called off, and I seriously doubt if Kim will ever want to meet with Drumpf any time at all...... And sadly it does indeed show how the insane war hawks in the US government are running the show now...More to comeNTS
