Basketball Diplomacy Dennis Rodman Style


 Well I guess this is a good thing so we don't come to blows over their nuclear program.

Kim, a diehard basketball fan, told the former Chicago Bulls star he hoped the visit would break the ice between the United States and North Korea, VICE founder Shane Smith said.

Dressed in a blue Mao suit, Kim laughed and slapped his hands on the table before him during the game as he sat nearly knee to knee with Rodman. Rodman, the man who once turned up in a wedding dress to promote his autobiography, wore a dark suit and dark sunglasses, but still had on his nose rings and other piercings. A can of Coca-Cola sat on the table before him in photos shared with AP by VICE.

I think the next thing we need to do is offer an NBA pre-season game in North Korea in exchange for some give-back on nuclear tests. If they give up their nuclear ambition and dismantle their program they can have even more of this kind of thing.

It would be so weird for Rodman to win the Nobel Peace Prize because of starting something like this off. This picture is so funny. Look at all the eyes on the Supreme Leader to see what his reaction is. He is cheering so we can cheer as well!
