Hey Everyone,
good discussion in here, damm should of read the replies earlier.
Mike, Jr. I agree with you on the premis that if N. Korea is serious about using any WPD, they must be stopped in there tracks. the war never ended, that is why there is 37,000 troops near the dmz zone.
Alex and Pd do have good points. it's actually in bush's best interest to have some back and forth problems with N. Korea. just another overseas problem he can deal with and show that he was correct on the axis of evil.
Shit, Clinton himself was tough on n. korea. I belive they signed that non nuclear pact in 1994, but some of his old advisors say at 1 point, clinton was ready for some sort of military action with them.. What I liked about clinton admin more. is his ppl were more apt to go the diplomatic way first off, before threats, at least in public you know.
Bush really does come off as a cowboy, sorta like regan was. One good thing is Powell is Sec. of State. he will work this out and hopefully defuse the situation. Trust me, I am more worried about the terrorist in the middle east then N. korea. the leader of N. Korea might sure as heck be an asshole, dictator, etc, etc, but I don't belive from what I have read that he wants to go down in flames. and remember China and Russia, sure don't want some rouge, loose cannon, going off in that region..
peace
todd
