“I once again confirm that the body is that of Kim Jong-nam,” Mr. Zahid said, contradicting the official North Korean position, which insists the man, killed Feb. 13 in a crowded airport terminal, was named Kim Chol.
Mr. Kim was assaulted by two women who approached him and smeared his face with a liquid that autopsy tests showed was the banned chemical agent VX. He was carrying a passport with the name Kim Chol.

Kim Han-sol, who is in his early twenties, was educated in Macau, Bosnia, and France, and has spent much of his life outside North Korea.

“Because of the multiculturalism that the school has and the diversity in the classrooms, it is easier for all of us to expand on our topics in the class and share our opinions on various topics,” Kim Han-sol says. “And through that I think we can come to a better understanding with no boundaries, and I think that’s a very crucial thing for building a more peaceful community.” He speaks of everyone having “very similar core human values”; of his future hopes, he says, “I would like to engage in more humanitarian projects and also work to contribute to building world peace, and especially back home. . . . I’ve always dreamed that one day I will go back and make things better and make it easier for the people there.”
Gaily bedight,
A gallant knight,
In sunshine and in shadow,
Had journeyed long,
Singing a song,
In search of Eldorado.
But he grew old—
This knight so bold—
And o’er his heart a shadow—
Fell as he found
No spot of ground
That looked like Eldorado.
And, as his strength
Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow—
‘Shadow,’ said he,
‘Where can it be—
This land of Eldorado?’
‘Over the Mountains Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow,
Ride, boldly ride,’
The shade replied,— ‘If you seek for Eldorado!’
Edgar Allen Poe
1846

If it were to avoid a nuclear war, sure let China have NK. Unless China would then become a threat to SK why would the U.S. need a huge presence in the area? We also need to consider the 20 trillion debt problem. I don't think the U.S. can continue having a massive military presence all around the world anymore. Nor do I think a conventional war with NK is in the budget either. Just spit-balling.
