SEOUL : A top North Korean official has offered talks with the United States on Pyongyang's plans for a missile test, indicating that a launch could be put off, Yonhap news agency reported here on Wednesday."The United States says it is concerned about our missile test launch. Our position is, 'Okay then, let's talk about it,'" Han Song-Ryol, the deputy chief of North Korea's mission to the United Nations, told Yonhap.
In other words, they want us to give them stuff. It's nuclear blackmail.
Take care of it right there on the pad.
Hows to translate "mierde de Toro" to KorCommese?
Is this why FEMA is going around exhorting people to get prepared for a disaster?
Yup!
N. Korea wants talks with U.S. to ease tension over missile launch
(Kyodo) - North Korea's deputy mission chief at the United Nations, Han Song Ryol, said his country wants talks with the United States to ease tensions over the North's possible test-firing of a long-range missile, Yonhap News Agency reported from New York on Wednesday.
"Our position is to solve the problem through talks (with the United States)," Han said in a telephone interview with Yonhap, adding, "We are well aware of the U.S. being concerned about our missile test-firing."
Han also said the missile moratorium his country has adhered to since 1999 applies when talks between his country and the United States are under way.
"It is not true some say our missile test-firing is a violation of the moratorium because we had put a temporary halt to missile firing when talks were being held to improve relations with the United States and Japan at that time," Han was quoted as saying.
Han stressed North Korea, as a sovereign state, not only has a right to develop, deploy and test a missile, and also has the right to export missiles, Yonhap said.
Yeah, it is time to stop playing footse with the Don King of the east (with apologies to Don King). Let's warm up the launch pad to 3000 degrees.
Talking serves no purpose where the NK government is concerned. I watched a documentary on N. Korea last year. Human life has absolutely no value, there. Children picked though dirt for crumbs left behind by soldiers eating food. People scavenged grass, bark, bugs....anything they could to have something to eat. The brutality of the regime is incomprehensible. It's truly a Hell on Earth. You cannot have any discussions with people who do these things to their own citizens.
Talkin' time is over. Killin' time's begun.............FRegards

Are you talking about the genocide of non-muslims in Darfur being blessed and commited by the moo-slimes who run the Govt of Sudan?
Or is that a subject to be diverted, if possible?
Nah. That's called hurricane season.
"Hows to translate "mierde de Toro" to KorCommese?"
SLBM
Nope, its not hurricanes. They've been real busy out here in California.

as Joan Rivers oft said..
"Can we talk?"
Thanks, I was wondering about that.
Now, we've got war games going in Okinawa, and FEMA is running around saying California failed our disaster preparendness test.
We likely have missiles pointed at us. Has the department of homeland security raised the threat level yet?
No, we're still at chartreuse or mauve..
Here is a wonderful collection of photos taken by a "tourist" of North Korea posted on another thread yesterday. Read when you have some time, it's very enlightening and will make you appreciate the "small things" in life. Like running water and electricity...
Photo tour of North Korea. The land of "bleak and depressing"...
