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....

China?

Had the
Agreed Framework not been signed in 1994, the North's plutonium-based
program would by today have produced enough plutonium for up to 30
nuclear weapons. Critics of the accord should not ignore this

Iraq (Los Angeles Times)
09/22/2004 04:48 AMLos Angeles Times - UNITED NATIONS — For the second time in two
years, President Bush on Tuesday defended the invasion of Iraq before
the U.N. General Assembly and appealed to other countries to join the
United States in spreading "freedom" and "human dignity" in Iraq and
Afghanistan. But in a pointed rebuke, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi
Annan warned that countries that hoped to instill the rule of law must
first abide by it themselves.

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?
I will withdraw my snark if BOTH stories make the morning
papers tomorrow, but I doubt it. Aid crosses into North Korea

Mystery explosion in North Korea
Mystery explosion in North Korea
09/13/2004 10:31 AM
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.

Update: News reports are now saying the blast
may have been related to a dam-building project, or some similar
public work.

on to ban mobile phones from the country. However, it looks like
they're trying to figure out this whole internet thing, and are stuck
somewhere back in the nineties as they're trying to
launch their very own internet portal. It has
news, shopping and even free email, though the email part doesn't
actually work (remember: must not let people communicate). There
doesn't seem to be much internet infrastructure in North Korea, of
course, so the site needs to be run out of Germany instead.
