From the article

This policy is not uniformly popular in the State Department, where officials are managing the six-nations talks that include the United States, Russia, South Korea, China and Japan. One senior official complained that the policy would turn the talks into nothing more than "a surrender mechanism."

Memo to State Department:

Could someone please explain why a North Korean surrender is something you would NOT like to see?

(sigh) Once again, I am reminded of the story of a U.S. Naval Officer walking down the sidewalk near the State Department building one day in Washington, when a little old lady walks up and says "Excuse me Sir? I'm just visiting, and I seem to have lost my way, could you tell me which side the State Department is on?"

And the Naval Officer replies without skipping a beat, "Well Mam, they're SUPPOSED to be on OUR side!"

Anything that hurts sawed off, four eyed, psychotic chia pet they use for a glorious leader is fine by me.

If they really want to succeed they'll keep their mouths shut rather than brag to the NYT. North Korea like all communist dictatorships would rather self-destruct than admit defeat to capitalists.

"It really struck a nerve,"

I suspect that Kim Jong-il personally named one of their missles because it was just like him: No dong!

A lot of Kim Jong Il's money is in the Russian banking system, as well as the Chinese one.
