Your army is tied up in Iraq and the war did not go the way the neocons anticipated, and you want GWB go after North Korea??!!!! Now our army will be tied up in Afghanistan, and how are we going to take on the North Koreans???!!!! China who does not want a US ally up on her border (via a unified Korea dominated by South Korea) will simply say to US no more purchases of T Bills, if we attempted a move with South Korea. My prediction is there will be a revolt in North Korea, the Kim family will be removed or reduced to placate the mob and a committee of North Korean generals will run the country backed by China. China will transform North Korea into an adjunct szcerin. Unfortunately the North Korean rebels will be rounded up and shot to restore order.

I agree and this is probably the best that we could hope for at this point in time. North Korea has been so f*ed up for so long reunification would be a disaster for the South. The DPRK is not the DDR.

Absolutely. We had more than enough military resources to kick Kim Jong Il's ass, destroy his nuclear program and probably ignite a popular uprising against his regime, if GWB had possessed the stones necessary to do it.

With air and naval power for starters. You sound hysterical with all those exclamation points and question marks, you need to calm down Friend.

The fact is, Communist China and South Korea get along just fine. I daresay that Beijing gets along BETTER with Seoul than with Pyongyang because South Korea doesn't continuously have it's hand out begging for help, plus South Korea poses no threat to the Chinese, Seoul's domestic and international conduct is stable and non-aggressive.

Had GWB taken out the Asian leg of that 'Axis of Evil' he was so concerned about, we wouldn't even be having this discussion. Once again, "talked the talk, but couldn't walk the walk."
