  • Dennis Rodman To Lead Peace Talks With N.Korea?

    Two online articles today about North Korea:

    Thursday’s announcement by North Korea that it could launch a pre-emptive nuclear attack against the United States in the face of new U.N. sanctions is a predictable escalation of the isolated nation’s increasingly aggressive stance toward Washington over the past year. But experts note that Pyongyang’s recent advances in its nuclear weapons and missile programs mean that such bellicose rhetoric cannot be taken lightly.

    The escalation of the North’s oratory began not long after the country’s 28-year-old leader, Kim Jong Un, took over from his late father, Kim Jong Il, on Dec. 28, 2011. It has been accompanied by two space launches – one successful – and a third nuclear weapons test.
    Dennis Rodman is reportedly trying to do something that hasn’t been achieved in decades – broker peace between the US and North Korea.

    Rodman’s publicist tells TMZ that The Worm is planning a second trip to the DPRK in the next six months, and securing peace between his new pal Kim Jong Un and President Obama would be the NBA legend’s greatest achievement.

    The aspiring diplomat allegedly wants to use his new odd-couple friendship with the Outstanding Leader to forge peace and convince Kim Jong Un to engage in talks with the president.
    I feel like I am watching an episode of The Outer Limits or The Twilight Zone. Does anyone else think this is just ..... a totally weird world we live in?
    Now run along and play, but don’t get into trouble.

        This could be the start of a sort of pong pong diplomacy.

        Richard Nixon stuck his neck on a chopping block when relations were established with mainland China.

        The more isolated that pathetic country gets, the worse they will behave.

        Empty their camps of political prisoners.

        Rodman was being strong to do what he did.

                  Dennis Rodman can play defense and block the shot.

                      If Un might be looking for a way out of an Untenable situation he might take advantage of this opportunity. Remember Ping Pong Diplomacy? People sometimes need cover to do what they understand is right. In this case, lets hope Dennis Rodman can work it. We'd all be better off for it.

                        Interesting point, because there certainly have been some interesting collaborations in the past on how to "get things done".

                            He might as well be added to the list of nominees, which includes:
                            Names put forward this year include Bradley Manning, the U.S. Army private who has admitted sending hundreds of thousands of classified documents to the secrecy-busting website WikiLeaks
                            That is the same Manning that is currently:
                            He was charged with a number of offenses, including communicating national defense information to an unauthorized source and aiding the enemy, a capital offense, though prosecutors said they would not seek the death penalty.
                            I'm not equating Rodman to Manning, what I am pointing out is that considering the scope of nominees, Rodman could probably fit in too.
                            Now run along and play, but don’t get into trouble.
