[Occupymendocino] Trump's Historic Opportunity: Begin Talks to End Korean War

[Microsoft account team]

I hope Trump is not lying again, and that his cabinet of Generals, war mongers and the former torturers and CIA operatives are contained in this threat of bombs and war. It is the one redeeming action Trump has proposed: talks of Nuclear treaties and nonproliferation.   Previously he raised the Military budget to almost 60% of our money, and Americans want their infrastructure repaired and jobs restored.  The big tax cuts for the Millionaires and Billionaires did not help most Trump voters.  But if he can actually broker peace, I am for that! Peace treaties are good for our economy just as much as the current war economy. This is the main reason so many people voted Trump in - they are tired of regime changes and the war economy.

Trump’s Historic Opportunity: Begin Talks to End Korean War

--by John Lewallen, <avoidingnuclearwar.com>

April 23, 2018

                President Trump has an opportunity to begin talks with the goal of ending the Korean War with a peace treaty, a tremendous advance in securing the United States and avoiding war. There need be no preconditions, and the peace treaty may take awhile to achieve. The United States has no fundamental conflicts with North Korea. The Korean War that began in 1950 and has not ended yet was driven by the desire to “contain” Chinese and Russian communism, a completely outdated conflict. Ongoing peace talks with North Korea will make it less likely that the U.S. will be deliberately or “accidentally” attacked.

                My heartfelt thanks to President Trump for preparing for peace talks with North Korea, and for his endorsement of talks between North and South Korea leading to a peace treaty. We can all sleep a bit easier, with threats of war abating. President Trump, you have my full support for peace talks with North Korea!
