Much of the world's media are clearly hating every minute of this summit.

The deal doesnt say anything really. It isn't a deal so much as an agreement to work towards one. Which is fine but lets not jump the gun and hand out the Nobel prizes just yet.

I wouldnt assume you will get 8 years of Trump. You are getting a little carried away there.....

It's actually rather glorious to watch. :hehe:

Of course, the document says nothing about how or when that denuclearization will be achieved. And yet the same president claimed that the Iran deal was a 'bad deal' despite it being very clear how verification would occur.

But this is a stunning foreign policy success? You live in a strange world some times, Burney. :hehe:

I agree about the wall, fwiw. Quite a lot of his supporters are getting irritated about that. I don't blame them. Who wants a country full of Mexicans, after all? Look at the fvcking state of Mexico for how that turns out.

Whereas if Kim had got an H-bomb and long range delivery system with which to hit the US during Obama's day, and then been given a meeting, treated as an equal, and promised better relations, all without any concrete promise of denuking, the right would have been calling Obama a traitor.

As Ind, Pak and Isr have shown. If you wanna be taken seriously, get a nuke.

Why should any tinpot dictator respect the NPT now?
