The most dangerous risk against peace is having mad men in charge of two nuclear nations.

nice, article which over promotes diplomacy when Hitler through the 1930s proves diplomacy is worse than a failure, if the, 100 million dead get a voice. you can negotiate with reasonable people. That's why negotiations with Kruschev worked. Kim Hong un is more of a hitler type or an islamopsycho like an ayatollah or self described Caliph of Isis. north Korea is effectively a hostage situation, they lobbed a few missiles over Japan so the, area knows pay up or a nuke lands on anyone because the economic damage to the, world would, result in dead people from starvation. as soon as, people are pointing gubs,at your gead sating pay me a million to live, "negotiations" dont work. sure diplomacy should continue to be tried, maybe,we can talk the psycho out of it but in the end, the people of the world are not obligated to die in a north korea attack or its aftermath because diplomats want articles like this to be real. this, article is, exactly the league of nations beliefs and Neville Chamberlain mistakes which led to WW2, Had the world taken hitler out in 1934 when Winston Churchill was stating as an MP and laughed at over it, 100 million people would have, survived. People, are not on this planet to be the cannon fodder and unintended consequences of the political class, at this point if anyone is killed by north Korean nukes, the blood, with be on the hands of all the officials who could have taken that country down and instead chose to negotiate with a hostage taker.
