The very same.
His threats must be viewed in the larger context of US aggression.Uh, I believe that it is Kim Jong-un that has made these threats...
To promote peace between the USA and North Korea.Why, exactly, would we need to begin "peace talks"?
Peace is a process as well as an outcome. If we don't engage in the process of peace (diplomacy, dialog, etc.), then we cannot achieve the outcome of peace.I suppose that it could be argued, technically, that we never ceased our war with North Korea, since the Korean Conflict ended only in an armistice; but there has certainly been no armed conflict on the Korean Peninsula, involving the US, for 64 years now...
It's really not. Simply involving the international community in the peace process does not require a global government. It just requires cooperation.That sounds like just another pitch for "multilateralism"--a.k.a. globalism.
And I have far more respect for my toilet tissue than I have for globalism...
True, but the US is the only one who acts like they do.Of course the US does not "own the entire planet."
But neither does North Korea...

I trained with the ROK Marines, too. Rightly or wrongly, North Korea interprets US presence in the region as provocative. Something tells me the US would feel much the same way if Russia or China were in Mexico conducting such exercises. And the US has already invaded North Korea once, leaving behind incredible devastation, so North Koreans have a right to worry.

Look, I don't really disagree with what you are saying, but NK is poking the bear by testing nukes every other month. That's just a neocon/Warhawk beacon and the current Administration is attempting to do the opposite of the last, so as much as Obama ignored NK, Trump is now breathing down their neck. Kim is predictably responding by flipping the US the bird and Trump is responding with veiled threats. Trump will not back down. Someone else will have to rein in NK or bad things will happen.
In quoting my post, you affirm and agree that you have not been goaded, provoked, emotionally manipulated or otherwise coerced into responding.
