Talked To Death
Axis Of Evil: Did U.S. weakness invite North Korea’s nuclear provocations? Like Tehran, Pyongyang has rejected Obama administration diplomatic overtures. Are these rogue states seizing a new opportunity?
One of the most jarring of Barack Obama’s campaign promises was his oft-stated willingness as president to conduct direct talks with any head of state in the world, without preconditions.
Even if the other party was a brutal dictator, like Kim Jong Il, willing to starve millions of his countrymen; or a Jew-hating Islamofascist fanatic like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, surely sharing a nice pot of tea in the Oval Office could do no harm.
