Pope Francis ‘concerned’ about North Korea nukes
https://www.rt.com/news/360896-pope-nuclear-korea-concerns/
“We view the situation in the DPRK [Democratic People’s Republic of Korea] with grave concern,” the Vatican’s Undersecretary for Relations with States, Monsignor Antoine Camilleri, told delegates at the 60th General Assembly of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
The Pope, Camilleri said, supports the efforts of the international community to “revive negotiations over denuclearization” on the Korea Peninsula as Monsignor called on the IAEA to resume its “critical” role in the verification of North Korean disarmament.
“To prioritize such spending is a mistake and a misallocation of resources which would be far better invested in the areas of integral human development, education, health and the fight against extreme poverty.
This is not the first time Pope Francis has spoken out against nuclear weapons. Last year, as the world commemorated the 70th anniversary of America’s use of nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the pontiff called for the full prohibition on nuclear weapons."
Whatever efforts are made by others to negotiate will be mere theatre that would be torpedoed by the US anyway.
The USA is the belligerent party that has thwarted all attempts at normalisation after it pretty much destroyed the place to prop up a fascist military junta in the South and maintain a divided Korea.
Sorry underguy, but this is comedy gold.
BB again.
Ask him where his ancestors are from.![]()

Besides it comes with more white privilege than you white folks get![]()
Why is the pope concerned? Does he think the nukes will wipe out the world population of little boys for him and his church to molest?

That's an impressive level of "pretty much destroying the place," when in six plus decades, the marvels of central control of the means of production could't rebuild it.
They probably just need to work harder at adhering to Marxist economic principles

Don't be ridiculous.![]()
One of his parents is from Korea! So in theory, he's bound to have learned a lot more about the country from his father, than someone who never lived there.
Not saying that it's true, because knowledge in history and politics are just as or even more important.
But still, the manner in which BB appeared out of the blue -AGAIN, like he likes to do with people- to poke you in the ribs about that was funny!
Come on, relax... Don't you see the funny in the situation?
So what if BB is half asian ? - it has nothing to do with that.
If you explained Netherlands or Tombuktu to someone, not knowing that the person is from there or their father was, and they pulled a similar tongue in cheek, I would have laughed too.
This political corectness is killing me.
What? Now we can only be amused by things involving Northern European white straight men, for fear of being labelled as racists, homophobes or misogynists?
Look, underguy. My take on some of the things in the GB:
Yes, I and a few others pushed it Too Far and went overboard as you rightfully told me, and I'll try to correct that. But my or other posters' motivations weren't evil.
Because a good chunk of the Litsters who make fun of the GB's white posters ridiculous or hypochritical political correctness about minority groups are minority groups themselves: part native americans, part asians, jewish, immigrants and so on.
-- And the odds are that most of us did come across racist or xenophobic attitudes IRL, and we kindof know to differentiate between what's genuine and what'sbullshit.
Do you think that I, as an immigrant from SEu, haven't come across xenophobia?
Hell yes I did. Even though my experiences overall in NZ and Au were great, when I first emmigrated to NZ I landed in an institution in a small town that was well known for it's prejudice against immigrants. It was both hell for me but also a good experience, because I learned to look behind the PC or nonPC rhetoric and suss out what their real attitude was.
And do you think that I didn't encounter a few xenophobic attitudes when I joined too here, in the GB? With my broken english and my odd personna that didn't fit in well with the anglo-saxon culture?
Or 4estGump, for example? Do you have any idea how many times he was attacked by the enlightened libs. over the fact that he has a bit of native american blood , and that his daughter is asian?
So we kindof know who's who from this pov.
I'm telling you: BotanyBoy and 4est aren't like that. Despite some of the things that they said, with which I don't agree either, I never saw them gang up on me or on other minority groups under false kumbaia pretenses. On the contrary.
