Is US Better Off with a Nuclear Lone Star State of North Korea?

Well, one thing is for certain, North Korea sees itself as better off keeping its nuclear weapons, at least if it wants to defend itself and have any chance of being a world player.   The axiom “Peace through Strength” is a universally accepted principle among all existing nuclearized states. Wikipedia reminds us that “The phrase and concept date to ancient times. Roman Emperor Hadrian (AD 76–138) is said to have sought ‘peace through strength or, failing that, peace through threat’. Hadrian’s Wall was a symbol of this policy.”  

     Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump stand out as our best presidential avatars for embodying this ground rule for not becoming a victim. North Korea’s Kim Jong-un easily remembers his country’s military dominations under foreign powers throughout the last century. It isn’t surprising that he doesn’t want to trade his nuclear-based national freedom for the Western-style democracy that is everywhere in evidence in America, based upon our television media society—actually throughout the West.

     To Kim Jong-un, China is a better blend of capitalism and communism. China is not the degenerate “socialism” of the European Union and US Democratic Party, both of which now champion a punked-up, albeit glitzy and degenerate utopian society that the former communist states find abhorrent.

     Retired Army Major General Bob Dees, who once commanded along the DMZ in South Korea, argues that “President’s Trump’s savvy diplomatic approach to the perplexing North Korean dilemma is promising, even artful.”

     While media coverage about Trump and the North Korean leader is synonymous with the politicized voice of the Democratic Party, General Dees confidently asserts that “The North Korean political and military Rubik’s Cube has confounded Democratic and Republican administrations for 70 years. President Donald Trump’s ‘peace through strength’ approach has achieved more tangible results in the past two years than all the other efforts combined.”

     There’s no need for us to keep repeating the mantra of our Fake News media that King Jong-un is crazy or bully-prone or unhinged (their stock weaponized language even for the president). As is already apparent, the nuclear-armed North Korea that now exists is a nation that might prove to be an important American ally in that volatile part of the world.

     As General Dees has pointed out, “Trump’s unconventional diplomacy ensures that no matter what, the North Korean regime won’t walk away with any free handouts.” He advises all Americans to support their Commander-in-Chief to make the right decisions. “Let’s give it a chance, America,” Dees says, “because “Trump is on the cusp of one of the most significant diplomatic achievements in recent history.”
