I learned a great deal from Selig Harrison's attempts to view the conflict from the North Korean side, particularly.


I agree. He obviously did not agree with their arguments, but he presented them well. The one that will be presented here by the some as a "Told You So," is that they started the Bomb process because they were reacting to Bush's "Axis of Evil" and his "Preemption" declaration. But they had got these centrifuges in the missile trade with Pakistan in '98, so they have been enriching Uranium for at least the last 4 years.

Fortunately, a classic containment policy should work with these people, and I assume we are getting the Allies lined up on that. I cannot believe that the Chinese or the Russians would want them to be an active Nuclear Power. North Korea really is dead broke, and cannot feed their people.
