Tell Senator Menendez to Support Serious Diplomacy in Korea

Mike Pence, John Bolton, and gang don't seem to need any help in fending off the looming threat of peace in Korea, but that doesn't stop some Democrats, including Robert Menendez, from offering.

The following Democratic senators are now working in the long tradition of facilitating war by sabotaging diplomacy with impossible demands: Chuck Schumer, Sherrod Brown, Dick Durbin, Dianne Feinstein, Patrick Leahy, Robert Menendez, Mark Warner.

Writes Nicholas Kristof in the New York Times: "They seem more concerned with undermining [Trump] than supporting a peace process with North Korea. They are on the same side as National Security Adviser John Bolton, quietly subverting attempts to pursue peace."

There is virtually no chance that North Korea, threatened with the destruction visited upon Libya, is going to dismantle all of its weapons prior to any steps away from military threat.

Your Letter:

The letter that you and six other senators sent to President Trump hurts the cause of peace in Korea by insisting that any hint of sanctions relief for North Korea must depend on the total dismantling of North Korea's nuclear and missile programs, that North Korea must submit to country-wide "anywhere, anytime" inspections with "snap-back sanctions" if "not in full compliance," and that the agreement must be permanent in nature. (Most senate Democrats supported an Iran nuclear deal that was NOT permanent.) You seem to be placing partisanship ahead of peace.

North Korea has freed U.S. prisoners and dismantled part of its nuclear facilities. The United States should be reciprocating by lifting sanctions (thereby saving innocent lives), or at least providing aid, lifting the travel ban, or opening an interest section in North Korea.

To arrive at a stable peace, the United States will need to commit to not attacking North Korea, and step aside to allow at long last an agreement ending the war of the 1950s and making reunification between North and South Korea possible.

There are many, many far better ways in which to oppose Trump than by sabotaging progress toward peace that he may very well ruin all on his own. I urge you, as your constituent, to support serious diplomacy.
