it's one of the very largest hotels in the world.

It also has 7 rotating restaurants planned to be on top.


I suppose the entire building is somewhat of a headscratcher, as I have noted before, such a large hotel (in a country that doesn't allow visitors) with so many restaurants (in a country with no food) does raise some questions regarding the sanity of the folks that ordered it built.

Oops.  Another little oversight.

https://www.rawstory.com/2018/05/south-k...se-letter/


Quote:South Korea blindsided by Trump — and struggling ‘to make sense’ of his letter

Quote:The U.S. ally was so taken aback by the president’s letter to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un that South Korean officials are reading and re-reading the letter in an attempt to understand it.

“We are attempting to make sense of what, precisely, President Trump means,” said Kim Eui-kyeom, spokesman for South Korea’s Blue House.

Good luck with that, guys.  The blithering idiot doesn't make any sense in English.

South Korea does seem a little too eager to take one up the butt from NOKO . . .

Wonder, however, how much faster South Korea could assimilate North Korea than West Germany did East. Interesting to contemplate . . . .

S. K could extract further american commitments regardless of the success or failure of any peace summit between itself and the north.  Cynically, the ceasefire between them is the gift that keeps on giving....so long as they don;t get flattened in the next few minutes.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

The WLB won't get his Nobel Peace Prize! He might get a nuke instead.

Just watched on the news that NOKO responded to President Trump's letter saying that they're willing to talk and will do so when ever the U.S. wants and under any format.
