Trump to Hold Second Summit With Kim Jong Un in February, U.S. Says
U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will meet near the end of February for a second summit, despite evidence North Korea is advancing its nuclear weapons program.
The White House announced the summit and timing after Trump met Friday with Kim Yong Chol, a top aide to the North Korean leader and a former spy chief.
Trump's decision to go ahead with another in-person meeting -- further elevating Kim's global profile -- underscores the president's confidence that his personal involvement and negotiating skills can change the behavior of recalcitrant regimes in ways that traditional leverage and diplomacy, past U.S. leaders and his own emissaries could not.

Meanwhile, the criminal khazar jewish terrorist state of israel continues to develop nuclear weapons and aims them at European nations in case they get attacked, ensuring that peaceful nations can be destroyed when the criminal terrorist jewish khazar state of israel is attacked and destroyed.
No word from Trump on that.
DPRK has never attacked another nation, landed soldiers on foreign land, bomb their schools, destroyed their infrastructure or threaten anyone in any way. The only thing they are guilty of doing is exercising their right of survival. Life is everybody's right.

You say "their right of survival." Otherwise known as their right to exist. I'm a very very strong believer in Israel's right to exist. By any means necessary. And that includes their nuclear. Iran has nuclear, why shouldn't Israel? And if they need help with the nuclear or the anything else, I'll be in my office. Or my bedroom. They can call me and we'll make a very fair deal. Jay Sekulow of the ACLJ, one of my incredible lawyers, has written a new book about Israel's right to exist.

Sounds like you're a few decades behind. Israel is not "developing" a nuclear arsenal. It has been "developed". Today, maybe they are growing that arsenal, but it rivals that of the US in quality, and possibly in numbers. What they didn't figure out on their own, we gave them, and if we held anything back, they stole it. Israel can, all by itself, burn the world down, if they take a notion to do so.
We're gonna be able to vacation in Gaza, Cuba, Venezuela, Iran and maybe Minnesota soon. Incredible times.
