BREAKING - South Koreans this morning are reading in their newspapers that North Korea
undertook a nuclear test in the last three months.
Is this the reason for the admission of breaking the Agreement yesterday?

They already had a nuclear weapons program well established.. the deal was to build reactors that couldn't be use for producing nuclear weapons for free if they discontinued their program.. they did not.. we got shammed..stuff happens...

Ya know, I really don't know what is so surprising about this latest revelation. Do you really think with all the technology we have, that our gubment didn't know this was going on? The only thing that is "surprising" is that the sheeple are just now finding out about it. Now our gubment is in a pickle. "Do we tell the sheeple what we have known for years, or do we deny, and act just as surprised, stunned and outraged as the people we are to protect." Me thinks people need to start thinking on their own, with logic and perception instead of being led around like a bunch of inept fools. WAKE UP AMERICA. The shit's about to hit the fan.

Tanto no got arrows!

Don't forget that NK did successfully fire a missle over the Japanese Islands.

I would say that Tonto does have some arrows.

Neither Reagan nor GHW Bush had any dealing with N. Korea. It was the Treasonous Rapist Bill Clinton and the Spineless Worm Jeemi Catta (who licked the boots of every dictator on the planet), who decided to sit down and negotiate with a rogue Nation (that Ray Charles could see couldn't be trusted), and offer them 6 billion dollars worth of promises in exchange for a promise from a Dictator who the entire world knew was liar.

>>He told me that most of the evidence we presented to N. Korea dates back to 1998

Wasn't that when the Koreans testfired a missile over Japan? Story makes sense if you backdate it a few years ago and add this this tidbit...

Pakistan, ...was a major supplier of critical equipment for North Korea's newly revealed clandestine nuclear weapons program, current and former senior American officials said today.

How so? Hindsight is 20/20 my friend and in 4 years people will be raking through Bush's decisions with a fine tooth comb and I'm sure just as with Clinton many will shout how evil he is.. even though as we sit here we all know he's making the right decisions. Now i'm not defending Clinton or any or all of his actions. The point is people have no clue exactly how policy is shaped and who influences. Nor the fact in this case Bush Sr. and are dear friend Ronnie before him knew exactly what was going on North Korea before him. Clinton just picked the "sunshine policy" as his administrations goal of normalizing relations which seemed a good idea at the time. Unfortantly he underestimated that his goodwill will have benefits in the interest of the US.

I gotta agree with you and your brother. We would have known about this testing already if it happened.

I think it's worse than that, not only have Carter and Clinton been coddling communist they have been arming them and propping them up with billion dollar's trade deal and handouts. If this is what it looks like, I'll be damned !

Again you don't treat the world like children.. Oh and btw.. the supposed containment policy of how we dealt with Russia has it's own unintended consenquess. Russia sucks us dry of money now and still doesn't agree with anything we say and is just as much of a threat now as it was any point in it's history of the USSR. Don't tell me you have the perfect know it all conservative policy. Russia is living proof of what a joke it is.

Clinton did wrong. Responsibility did not exist in the WH then, or with either of them now.

You don't know that they already had nuclear weapons well established before billy c and jimmy c GAVE the N Korean's the information and materials necessary to build nuclear reactors.

Do you know if that dimbulb, greedy arsed, sickening, unpatriotic, slug of a human being known as bill c and his co-conspirator in the treaty deal with N Korea BOTHERED to build in safeguards such as the need to VERIFY that the N Korean's were not USING the tech for miltary weapons of mass destruction? Enquiring minds want to KNOW if billy c loved our nation enough to demand that the treaty he and jimmie devised with the N Koreans be VERIFIABLE? Do ya know? Enquiring minds and all....because in the field of NUCLEAR WEAPONRY-stuff does not JUST HAPPEN. Sit does, of course. But not weaponry.

We seem to be on the same page about Clinton, but I didn't mention him. I just referred to the legacy of misery in communist countries, where the elite have all the comforts and don't care that the people of the country starve.
