Good Morning Jerome,

Not sure about N.korean thing.

I think it is a combination of many things.

1) having three aircraft carriers floating 50 miles off your coastline no doubt makes one feel vulnerable.
2) his nuke test area was damaged and may not be much of a concession if any - could've been the end of the program any way.
3)If the unity that boosted East Germany when it joined with West Germany could be repeated for both Koreas - it is a solid justification to do it. West picked a lot of cheap labor force and boosted their automotive exports.Just this last month GM was considering bankruptcy over high labor cost demands in S Korea (where they bought out Daewoo and export to the US in the Chevy name - (park and Sonic models). The timing is ripe for them to really have a peace benefit and an economic growth revival.

If it was accomplished - it would focus world attention to Iran.

G.W. Bush said a mouth full when he discussed the triaxis of evil: Iraq, N Korea, and Iran.

Two down - one to go and we'd sell the weapons to benefit from the war funded and fought by the arabs.

Time for us to get part of our 7 trillion Mid East War expenditures back.
