Either add alt text or mark the image as decorative.Today I went to a Baruch Republican Club panel featuring three guests, one of them being my own philosophy professor, Mr. James Rowe. The subject that was presented to the panel was about the nuclear weapons in North Korea. They were asked questions regarding the presidents foreign policy as it pertains to North Korea and Kim Jong Un, and if there is anything we can do to stop North Korea from developing and having nuclear weapons. The panel concluded that we will have to live in a world where North Korea has nuclear weapons, and the only thing we can do is threaten them in hopes that they are rational enough to not use them against any countries. The real problem is that if (when) North Korea has nuclear weapons, they will most likely sell them to other countries and organizations, this posing an immediate threat to the United States and the rest of the world. And if multiple countries get involved, this could be a war that is borderline apocalyptic, and we could come very close to the end of the world as we know it.
