[Peace-discuss] Korea & liberal War Party

[Karen Aram]

Trump receiving the Nobel Peace prize will put him in good company with Kissinger and Obama. My point being its ridiculous to consider the Nobel prize of any value after those two received it.

Again, I say we focus too much on what Trump said or did in respect to peace breaking out on the Korean penisula.

It is on Trumps watch so he will get credit for Korean peace, along with Obama receiving credit for the Iran nuclear deal.  The deal that Trump is looking at “unraveling” if that is the correct term.

I haven't read the Kristoff piece yet, but how are you reading Dowd as cynically opposing peace between the Koreas?    Look, she says:

But for the moment, President Trump’s peculiar form of diplomacy — a combination of belligerence, bluster, name-calling and ignorance of history — has somehow produced a possible breakthrough in North Korea that eluded his predecessors.
She's pointing out that Trump is, despite frantic opposition, actually getting this right - she seems be not at all ironic in saying that if successful, Trump unlike Kissinger would actually deserve a Nobel Peace Prize - and also pointing out that the Dems are hanging themselves if they think that all they need to be is anti-Trump.   This sounds pretty good to me.   What am I missing?

The viciousness and cynicism of War Party liberals is on full display (Kristoff, Dowd) on the NYT op-ed page. God forbid peace should break out on Trump's watch.
