Page 13 - Gadhafi News Today

Disguise because we were not ready, and because theres division within the administration. >> um-hum. >> i think the president has to get his national security adviser and the secretary of state on the same page, and that is that our objective is to try to find a solution on denuclearization, but stop talking about the libya model, which scared kim jong-un obviously, because gadhafi, after he gave his weapons up, ended up dead. >> thats what happened, right. >> so you cant really blame kim jong-...

They think in their little own cocoon, and i dont know if the presidents people have experience dealing with them. obviously i think there have been some mistakes because too many of the administration people are speaking with different voices. i think secretary pompeo, hes been there twice. he established an intelligence channel with the koreans. he should be speaking out. he should be the only one. but then youve got the vice president. youve got john bolton talking about the libya model where...

That they may have learned a lesson here, that you cant be using the gadhafi model. you cant be using the libya model because at the end of that gadhafi dies and at the end of it if youre going to use it as an analogy kim dies. so maybe, just maybe, the trump administration now will try to tamper down some of this crazy rhetoric that was being used and maybe in turn kim will do the same thing. theres no guarantee that thats the case. but ultimately, there is no military solution to this problem ...

Them. this is typical. they bluster. they flex their muscles. they dont show up at meetings. they insult. they insulted the vice president. so what you have is because they dont think like we do. they think in their little own cocoon, and i dont know if the presidents people have experience dealing with them. obviously i think there have been some mistakes because too many of the administration people are speaking with different voices. i think secretary pompeo, hes been there twice. he establis...

Obviously i think there have been some mistakes because too many of the administration people are speaking with different voices. i think secretary pompeo, hes been there twice. he established an intelligence channel with the north koreans. he should be speaking out. he should be the only one. but then youve got the vice president. youve got john bolton talking about the libya model where gadhafi ended up dead after they put his nuclear weapons out. im sure kim jong-un got a little nervous about...

Theyve been quite brilliant, like iranian leaders, because as they look at how the united states and its president, successive presidents, treat troublesome powers, if you dont have wmds like saddam hussein or gadhafi they come in and you end up dead. if you do have nuclear weapons, like pakistan they treat you far differently. so it seems like far from being insane or a madman, kim jong-un has played the united states and his father, the last three presidents, very well. >> indeed, and now hes ...

Worried. and then, of course, john bolton, whom they know well, thought is was useful to start talking about 9 llibya model ext its updated with what add fhap a few years ago with the death of gadhafi in the streets of tripoli and quite recently vice president pence joined into that. everything going in the wrong direction and i think the president was wise to call it off. and now the question, is it really back on and whats the basis for it being back on? i wish the president would maybe send a...

Of basic blocking and tackling of international diplomacy one would have expected to have been already done. its still going to be this president and his people going forward. what hope is there that they change the way they go about doing this? >> well, i agree with you, chris. i dont have any way of getting inside the internal workings of the cerebral mechanisms of john bolton or donald trump. my hope is that, however, is that they may have learned a lesson here, that you cant be using the gad...

Talk of a nobel peace prize, a commemorative coin and now discounted at the white house gift shop with the note that, quote, if summit does not occur you can request a refund. as bill richardson the former u.n. ambassador points out this behavior of north korea is pretty standard. what happened? >> well, i mean, i think its good reminder to first not give undue credit to donald trump before its due and talked about how he secured peace with north korea and now doesnt look like theres a meeting a...

Of state pompeo on the hill talking to senators. they wonders how much the administrations constant comments of the libya model, gave up the nuclear weapons and then gadhafi was taken down and killed. we know that that bothers north korea. so the secretary of state asked repeatedly how was that a good idea? how could north korea interpreted that any other way but badly? do you agree with this? secretary of state did not have an answer. he wouldnt answer whether it was a good idea, whether he agr...
