JD: I have a lot of questions about it. What were your first thoughts when you heard this?
BM: Well Jimmy it’s certainly an unprecedented during the seven decades after the end of the Korean War and of course it’s really an ominous that’s in place since the war continues. I was shocked but not surprised. The North Koreans have a habit of pulling a rabbit out of a hat and of course President Trump is not a conventional politician or diplomat so he’s going to do something a bit unconventional. Accepting the invitation is something I would have expected from him.
So, the question I think that we all have is what will come of
this. I suspect being somewhat skeptical that this will be another effort to
delay our sanctions to delay our pressure on that regime and of course behind
the scenes and this is probably the most important aspect you have China, you
have Russia, and you have Iran. They all have a role to play here and that’s
very important for people to understand.
JD: Well I want to go into those thoughts as well but some have
said that really North Korea is about to go bankrupt. The people are starving
to death and that’s somewhat what motivated this. At least he can come to the
table maybe have some of the sanctions lifted so he can feed his people, any
truth to that at all?
BM: Well I’m sure there’s an element of truth there. You know he
his father and grandfather have been starving the people of North Korea since
the late 40s and so that’s no surprise. Our sanctions have had an impact. The
Chinese have been in grudging partners in putting some pressure on. But once
again I think behind the scenes there’s a lot more happening than meets the
eye.
JD: Colonel Bob Maginnis with details about a potential
face-to-face meeting between President Trump and Kim Jong-un.
We report this information because it is setting the stage
for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
It was a major political surprise announcement at the White
House when the South Koreans said that President Trump had agreed to meet and
speak to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. North Korea had been preparing
nuclear weapons of mass destruction as well as a delivery system that could
strike America. Kim’s rhetoric and President Trump’s pressure may have resulted
in the potential face-to-face meeting by these two world leaders.
I’m often asked what part does North Korea play in Bible
prophecy. Well the answer is at the end of the Tribulation period. Revelation 6:12
it mentions the Kings of the East and North Korea will be a part of that group.
The Trump-Kim meeting may well be setting the stage for
Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
