#1 Well, KIMMIE = LIBYA'S UNCLE MUAMMAR = NOT INTIMIDATED + WILL NOT VOLUNTARILY GIVE UP RULING POWER WIDOUT A FIGHT.

Also read, WIDOUT STARTING A MAJOR WAR.

I don't see Kimmie + Jong-un giving up the whole of the DPRK's Nucprogs - they will want to have at least LIMITED NUCLEAR ARSENAL AS "HEDGE" AGZ THE US-ROK-JAPAN [you know,SSSHHHHH CHINA]; + also are likley to demand GUARANTEED MASSIVE INTERNATIONAL FOOD, OTHER MAJOR ECON ASSISTANCE PER ANNUM FOR NORTH KOREA ET PERPETUUM [read, until further notice = formal DPRK-ROK Reunification].

* ION TOPIX > NORTH KOREA REPEATS THREAT OF MILITARY RESPONSE TO DRILLS. New Mil Incidents + Seas of Nuclear + WMDS Fire.

Again, the DPRK wants to STOP STARVING + MODRNIZE + REUNIFY WID SOUTH KOREA, while RISING CHINA wants "FIRST ISLAND CHAIN" SOLE BASE RIGHTS.

"NONE OF THE ABOVE" IS NOT AN OPTION 2011-2020/2025, espec for HUNGRY NORTH KOREA 2011-2015.

#2 No its a political issue. When Kimmie-boy spends all his cash on Nuclear Development instead of feeding his people he makes it a political issue.

This isn't humanitarian aid - its indirect financing of his military and nuclear development.

#3 Think positively CF: if it weren't for Ronald Reagan you'd be feeding 250 million Soviets, as well as 30 million Norks.

#4 As sad as it is, it would be sadder to support Kimmie's regime and just keep repeating the cycle.

#5 On the bright side, this could be a economic boom for America's 35,000,000 struggling African American farmers and farm family descendents.

#6 One of the first lessons of my Int'l Eco course was about the fungibility of money and the fact that trying to dictate that aid money only go to the most important projects was nothing but a scam.

#8 How about food and aid for giving up his Nukes? I'm sure that's going to happen.

#9 JohnQC, go one better and give up the nukes AND the Kims. A package deal.

#10 Having screwed up the economy, health care, Iran, Egypt, and Libya, Obama now takes aim at the Korean Peninsula.

Go team Bambi! Let's go for complete global chaos and riots!

#12 Lord protect the United States of America from these naive fools. After 60 years of the same dance, Obumble and his "nuanced sophisticates" are falling for the same tired old BS that Clinton and frankly, most US leaders have fallen for in the past. Essentially we are going to feed the NKPA and self delude thats its humanitarian aid. Jeeez what predictable clowns they are in the WH.

#14 Feed a feral dog from your table and he'll be back for more, first with a pitiful pleading look and then a low threatening growl

#15 Regular Joe that was great. That's what I call a keeper. Its like the man who had a pet poisonous snake. He was bit. Why did you bite me?. Fool; I'm a snake, that's what snakes do.

#20 If we can make sure the food gets where it needs to go, why can't the same be said for bullets getting put into Kimmie and his cadre? Why are we acting so helpless? Oh yea, China. Don't want to piss off the little assholes.
