Proof of the US's degrading global authority. North Korea has agreed to end its nuclear program in exchange for millions of dollars. WE PAID THEM TO STOP!!!!! WE PAID THEM!!!! That's only way we're going to get any other rogue nation to toe the line these days. They know we can't attack or even threaten to attack so that see a great way to squeeze us for much needed funds. And since this was not a case of the US backing NK down but rather NK agreeing to stop if we pay them enough, I have no doubt those funds will eventually be used to bolster the nuclear program that you know damned well they are continuing with. You don't detonate a bomb and then say you are stopping. I'm not buying that. You can if you want.
