HISTORIC: Kim Jong Un shakes South Korean President’s hand in the DMZ….

This is really remarkable video – North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un visits the demilitarized zone, the DMZ, between his country and South Korea, and shakes the South Korean president’s hand.

Watch below:

I don’t care who you are, that’s pretty cool.

Now for the pesky reality bit – although this is very important symbolism, there’s still no reason to believe North Korea will not go back to its previous belligerent position. But we can be hopeful that this means lesser risk of nuclear war with millions of casualties. At the same time, any agreement with North Korea means a pretty heinous and brutal system of oppression will continue to exist. There’s not a lot of easy or obvious options here.

But that handshake was still pretty darn cool.
