North Korea - YES to Dialogue, the Only Alternative to War

January 2018 - For many years it has been US policy to talk with North Korea, but only on the precondition that North Korea agree beforehand on the goal of getting rid of its nuclear weapons. That was—and is—a non-starter, and North Korea used those years to build up its nuclear missile capability.

If President Trump is to live up to longstanding US policy not to "allow" North Korea to develop a nuclear capability against the US, then the ONLY option apart from military force—also known as war—is to talk with North Korea. And time is getting short.

ACTION:

Contact Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and tell him that you support his previously stated desire to talk with North Korea without demanding that they agree to what we want before negotiations even start!  After photos and handshakes, suggest that Tillerson offer to halt or ‘freeze’ US military attack exercises near North Korea in return for North Korea halting or ‘freezing’ their nuclear and missile testing. North Korea has indicated an interest in this approach. If they accept this "Freeze for Freeze" deal, it puts a pause in the current steady march to war. And there is no time to lose.
