As if this story hasn’t gotten enough attention already, why not add more to it?! Dennis Rodman is now planning on returning to North Korea to broker lasting peace between the United States and the DPRK. Hmmmmm…What do you guys think about this?!
Details after the jump…
Via TMZ:
Rodman’s publicist tells TMZ, for all The Worm’s life accomplishments — the Basketball Hall of Fame, rebounding records, defensive player awards — the NBA legend says securing peace between Kim Jong-un and Barack Obama would be his greatest honor. Ya think?
The rep says Rodman wants to use his newly-minted friendship with Kim Jong-un to set the stage for a peace deal, convincing the dictator to engage in talks with Obama. He plans to return to North Korea in the next 6 months to host another kids basketball clinic.
And when he goes back — Rodman will be a LOT more careful about calling Kim Jong-il and Kim Il-sung “great leaders” … in fact, he wants to apologize for making the comment in the first place.
According to the rep, Rodman regrets complimenting the former dictators without fully understanding the extent of their human rights violations. The rep says Rodman is deeply sorry for offending anyone.
Who’da thunk … diplomacy might be in Rodman’s future after all.
