US, NKorea to meet before nuclear talks

Some remarks from Christopher Hill who will represent the US in one-on-one talks with NoKorea.

The top US and North Korean negotiators on Pyongyang's nuclear program were due to meet one-on-one in the Chinese capital on Sunday, ahead of the resumption of six-way talks stalled since last year.

US envoy Christopher Hill was due to meet with his counterpart Kim Kye-Gwan after arriving in Beijing amid North Korean calls for Washington to end its "hostile policy" toward the isolated state.

"What the DPRK (North Korea) needs to do is to get serious with denuclearization," Hill said upon arriving in Beijing.

"If they get serious with denuclearization, a lot of good things can happen ... if they do not get serious about denuclearization such things will go away."

Maybe this is why he's taking the posture he is.

Unlike all the previous wars Korea fought, a next war will be better called the American War or the DPRK-US War because the main theater will be the continental US, with major cities transformed into towering infernos. The DPRK is now the fourth-most powerful nuclear weapons state just after the US, Russia, and China.

The DPRK has all types of nuclear bombs and warheads, atomic, hydrogen and neutron, and the means of delivery, short-range, medium-range and long-range, putting the whole of the continental US within effective range. The Korean People's Army also is capable of knocking hostile satellites out of action.

Its all very scary stuff. And we still have an idiot for a president.
