I don't see why you are all so cynical? Clinton had a great plan to help the 'Hermit Kingdom' come out of its shell, by helping their economy and really trying to bridge our differences. You can't build rapport and friendship without talking to people and sharing your wealth with them if they are poor and needy.
Dialogue and compromise never hurt anyone, why shouldn't we just give peace a chance?
Nah. Chatting with the North Koreans for ten years hasn't hurt anyone. Sending them food and fuel oil hasn't hurt, either.
We've done a great job of feeding a backward totalitarian dictatorship, of listening to their worthless assurances, of supplying their army with fuel and food. Meanwhile the people of North Korea starve, are shot for political opposition, and the government of North Korea has developed ballistic missiles that can hit American cities.
That's what "dialogue" and "humanitarianism" have wrought. And now the idiot liberals demand more of the same. Right. Whatever.
