So North Korea has agreed to halt their nuclear program in return for millions of dollars in financial aid. Personally I don't think it will work because once that money is spent they will want more, but I'm curious as to what you all think.
damn commies...
as far as they're leader is concerned...
i'm thinking that another governmental assassination is the order of the day...

N. Korea knew there was no way they could sustain a nuclear war...

i dunno ... maybe it depends on the inspection regime ...
The difference so far looks like this new deal requires the NorKs to give before they get and it looks to be done in smaller steps.
They are going to seal their reactor again. Big deal. They did that last time too. 🙄
