A thaw for rhe Winter Olympics maybe
Jan 14th, 2018 at 9:37am
 
North & South Korea have been talking again for some weeks now
Latest reports are that they have been discussing fielding a joint hockey team and even a joint team for the opening ceremony.

: Daily Caller

A few days ago it was reported that the South Korean President had attributed the resumption of talks to the tough attitude of President Trump.

Know the enemies of a civil society by their public behaviour, by their fraudulent claim to be liberal-progressive, by their propensity to lie and, above all, by their attachment to authoritarianism.

The last time South Korea hosted an Olympics, it was the last time we saw the USSR as one entity. Hopefully, we will see a reunification of Korea in the next few years, assuming that someone has good aim on replacing the North Korean president.

That's official now.
In the opening ceremony the two teams will march as one carrying a flag showing the Korean peninsula.
Also the joint hockey team, I guess that's ice hockey.

Not all bad news then.

In a time of universal deceit — telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

No evidence whatsoever it can be attributed to George Orwell or Eric Arthur Blair (in fact the same guy)

They did this in the Sydney Summer Olympics. Small steps, methinks.
