Tigerpaw,

I do not think you state the truth.

re:"You have to see what the treaty said, and also what it didn't say. It called for a continuation of inspections that were performed in the past and that limited the scope of the inspections."

From the article you provided the link to.

"Another critical element of the October 21 agreement is North Korea's willingness to accept, in time, the implementation of full-scope safeguards on its nuclear program as part of a return to full compliance with the NPT. North Korea is required to adhere to full-scope safeguards under the NPT--including special inspections or any other inspections the IAEA deems necessary to fully account for North Korea's past nuclear activities."

"the IAEA will continue the inspection activities it began in 1992 to be certain that North Korea maintains the "continuity of safeguards" required to ensure that there is no diversion of materials that could be used for a nuclear weapons program, and to verify the freeze on reprocessing, refueling, and construction activities related to its nuclear program."

Wouldn't enriching uranium to weapons grade, be a "diversion of nuclear materials that could be used for a nuclear weapons program"?
