play on behalf of Trump!
As for Israel: we've got enough problems of our own, Europe being one of them, USA's future generations (both Jewish/gentile) second.
The "world" will be stricken by rogue, nuclear exchange sooner than later,
the Genie's out of the bottle.
2. "Trump’s sympathy towards Israel..."
Hornet ,   D.F., MX   (06.11.18)
Uh... Trump just moved the US embassy to J'lem. Are you f'ing serious? "...Trump’s sympathy towards Israel has been reflected mainly in verbal and diplomatic statements and gestures which have had hardly any practical value."
Uh, hello, Ynet... that took about the biggest brass balls of them all. Wake up mi gente. My guess is N.K. ditches nukes or it will get nuked. Their choice. Iran to follow.

KIM HAS 3 ITS TOO LATE
4. N.Korea has nukes; Trump will win hotel concession
(06.11.18)
Doesn't matter how they spin it...North Korea will still have nukes.
5. U have got to b kidding...
(06.11.18)
these two dictators are getting together and sure thing their first concern will be Israel? so not!
These two men are the world's most self-centered leaders...it is all about them and only them...they don't even care about their own countries...just about their own comfort and money.
6. Bolton - Common Thread
Mark of Lewiston ,   USA   (06.11.18)
Bolton negated the Clinton agreement and ruined any chance of the Bush attempt. Now Bolton, who never served in the military, wants wars in both North Korea and Iran. Bolton never heard of anything he didn't want to fight to the last American Soldier, but never him or anybody he knows or is related to.

Bolton and Trump dodged the draft and are ultra hawks willing to get anybody else's family killed. May as well include Reagan and the senior Bush who Bolton probably sabotaged, too.
7. good article but....
Adler   (06.12.18)
North Korea reached thermonuclear weapons after decades of research, that kind of weapons were achieved just by USA, Russia, France, UK, and China.
Anyone who preaches that if North Korea dismantles his weapons capabilities Iran will dismantle its nuclear programs too, is wrong and misled.
Its unconceivable to suggested to an enemy state as Iran, that Israel is willing to recycle iranian contaminated residual waters.
Netanyahu rethoriic was completely out of touch




8. Dotard Trump does it again!
Ed ,   USA   (06.12.18)
Read the actual statement signed. A vague statement about De-nuclearization (whatever that actually means) and no statement about ballistic missiles To add to the chaos Trump stated that military exercises with SK will be halted (total surprise to SK BTW). Total win for NK and disaster for the US and the rest of the world.

I can't understand why anyone would celebrate a nonsensical, non-summit with NK with no tangible enforceable results ... and also celebrate Trump's tearing up the agreement with Iran that had specific terms, on the ground inspection and verification, and actually destroyed some nuclear capacity.

The Trump doctrine is clear. Screw our allies and cozy up to dictators.
