We need to get the goods on them and get them quick. One hopes there has been evidence to this effect seized from Kabul safe houses.

Are we ultimately going to be in a staredown with China? If so, has X42 so damaged our national security in his dealings with the Chicoms that they may try to stand up to us? History will confirm Clinton as the worst traitor in the history of the republic.

There has been next to no coverage on North Korean / Anthrax possibilities. Are the North Koreans considered right wing extremist??

What are the chances that Al-Quaeda is in fact state sponsored -- with reps from a hideous coalition of Iraqis, N.Koreans, Iraqis, Iranians, Lybians, Cubans, etc... and the degree of separation from those states is simply their gutless way of waging war. But perhaps they do have an official plan.

Just a thought.

Agreed. This report is not definitive. If true, buy stocks in South Korean companies. Their labor costs are about to go down.

Chian considers N. Korea to be an embarassment and a thorn in their side politically. They will not help NK.

BUMP

If they aren't communist, they are "right wingers". Clinton taught us that.

Does anyone know much about the military balance of power between N&S Korea? Is the North in a position to take the South or is the Western contribution a strong enough defence?

That's called "cutting to the chase," and to a point you're right.

The North Koreans have an agenda of their own, and OBL's hard cash is certainly attractive to them -- especially since the terrorists also further NK's aims.

Where China comes in is if we do something to slap the North Koreans down, within the borders of North Korea.

I think we can probably avoid that difficulty by simply wiping out the North Koreans when and where we find them aiding terrorists. Thus, for the camps in Kunar Province, Somalia, Sudan, or wherever we find them, pound and burn the place.

The Koreans probably cannot afford to lose too many of these advisors, and pragmatic considerations ensure that they cannot complain when we kill them. It'll end pretty quickly.

No. I thought he just continued the approach of former administrations to open up China more and more to trade without really caring about the human rights aspect of it. But I can't remember any president ever saying no to that yearly trade evaluation of China because of human rights violations.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be sarcastic. Does anyone have the links to all the ChinaGate material previously posted for BikerNYC?

Trust me, there is Chinese involvement with Al Qaeda. Why do you think they've kept their traps shut for the last few months. This could be the beginning of the END.

Then maybe you should not be posting on FR, but rather preparing for the END...
