70. NK will NOT sign a No Nukes agreement without being showered by billions

in gifts.

Bolton is insanely scary, but his thought that China should pressure NK to reunite with SK makes a lot of sense.

The worldwide No Nukes issue is separate.

Besides, we can barely get energy companies to get off nuclear powered energy generation that poisons lands, water, people..
You think it's going to be easy when it comes to hollowed "national security"?

Don't change the subject and then accuse me of arguing.

I imagine that you were drafted into service because supporting our modern military by joining voluntarily is about as far from being peaceful as one can get.

Now please, go bother someone else.
