I don't know that NK has placed us in any kind of bind.

I don't know that NK has placed us in any kind of bind.

He is causing us fits. While we are committing fully half of our combat power against Iraq, North Korea starts rattling sabres above the heads of 37,000 U.S. Army and Air Force personnel deployed in the beaten zone of any PDRK invasion. While we still have the other half of our military earmarked for the defense of South Korea, almost all of our strategic sealift and airlift is already committed to deploying and sustaining the Iraqi invasion. Kim knows this, and is ramping up the pressure -- forcing us to consider a nonconventional response to any invasion. This is not a good situation at all...
