Although the U.S. does not consider itself a threat to the North, Perry continued, Pyongyang believes the opposite. The North's need of a deterrent, Perry said, has "a very clear logic." The prescription seems plain: keep engaging the North while defanging it. If the other parties persist in engagement, North Korea will return to the negotiating table.

...asserts that its capital campaign is open-ended and will produce valuable funds even if the purchase of 45 Mt. Auburn never materializes. But this logic fails to consider that, while collecting $6 million from recession-pinched alums for the clear goal of a building purchase is difficult enough, trying to raise the same amount with only a vague appeal to “social space” would be flatly impossible...
