Historic Developments on the Korean Peninsula

President Trump Shakes it Up on the Korean Peninsula

          The world is waiting with hopeful anticipation as new developments unfold on the Korean Peninsula…well, all except for the younger generation of Americans who went through the public school madrasas and ‘graduated’ without ever learning the history of the Korean War.  Those of us who know world history realize the significance of what is happening and look forward to the possibility of an end to the war that began almost 70 years ago.  It is no coincidence that this is taking place on the watch of Donald Trump, the strongest and most qualified leader since Ronald Reagan.  For eight years during the Obama disaster the United States deferred the position of ‘leader of the free world’ to Benjamin Netanyahu, but President Trump has reclaimed that coveted title for the United States of America and the world has taken notice.  It will be interesting to see how the Nobel Committee  reacts.  After passing on Ronald Reagan and genuflecting to Mr. Obama, a snub of President Trump will be the final blow to any remaining credibility attributed to that once venerable institution.
