Report: North Korea bans cellphones
06/05/2004 01:00 AMThere are reports today that the government of North Korea has banned
mobile phones. Details are sketchy.
The country banned the use of mobile phones in late May, according to
reports quoting a North Korean official in the country's capital of
Pyongyang. The ban may be due to the deadly train explosion in the
country in April, which North Korean officials have said was triggered
by a mobile phone. Mobile phones have been used to trigger explosions
in other attacks across the world. (...)
By the middle of last year, the country counted 40 base stations and
about 1,000 users. North Korea has a total population of about 22.5
million people. In contrast, South Korea counts 35 million wireless
subscribers and a 75-percent wireless penetration rate (...)

FilteredNewsFilter: The only headline about North Korea in most of
the media is that
the U.S. Wants North Korea Working Group Talks to Resume
Before the End of April. But, if you live in
Australia
or parts of
Asia, you will have heard about N.K.'s rather shrill
official statement claiming that the U.S. is
"dri
ving the military situation on the Korean peninsula to the brink of a
nuclear war" with
"moves to put the strategy of pre-emptive nuclear
attack into practice." Fighting words. How come nobody in
the 'real media' around here seems to have noticed it yet?

Xeni Jardin:
In North Korea earlier this week: an explosion, a giant crater, and a
"peculiar cloud." Both the South Korean government and the US
government say they don't believe North Korea conducted a nuclear
test.
The event took place on the day of North Korea's most important
national holiday. September 9, 1948, is the day on which the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea was founded.
President Bush and his top advisers have received intelligence reports
in recent days describing a confusing series of actions by North Korea
that some experts believe could indicate the country is preparing to
conduct its first test explosion of a nuclear weapon, according to
senior officials with access to the intelligence.
While the indications were viewed as serious enough to warrant a
warning to the White House, American intelligence agencies appear
divided about the significance of the new North Korean actions, much
as they were about the evidence concerning Iraq's alleged weapons
stockpiles.
Some analysts in agencies that were the most cautious about the Iraq
findings have cautioned that they do not believe the activity detected
in North Korea in the past three weeks is necessarily the harbinger of
a test. A senior scientist who assesses nuclear intelligence says the
new evidence "is not conclusive," but is potentially worrisome.

may have been related to a dam-building project, or some similar

Bush policy on North Korea: do nothing
Bush policy on North Korea: do nothing
03/11/2003 01:59 PMAccording to the headline of the story I saw in McPaper this morning
on the way to work, "U.S. will wait out N. Korea situation No military
response to next nuclear step" The Bush policy towards North Korea,
one administration official is quoted as saying, is that they have
decided they "won't do anything." See the latest posting from Josh
Marshall as to why that is a terrible idea. But as importantly, I want
to understand: why is our policy towards North Korea so different from
our policy towards Iraq? Is it just that Hussein tried to kill Daddy,
while North Korea only kidnapped hundreds of Japanese citizens and
lets millions of its own die? What is the difference here? As someone
living within range of a North Korean nuclear tipped missile, I am
seriously wondering....
