North Korea - one temporary tactic would be a deal by proxy. The U.S. doesn't want to send oil to North Korea any more - but a U.S. ally or client might - maybe Indonesia, maybe Japan, maybe Austrailia, maybe even Russia.

Back channel funding from the U.S. makes this a profitable deal. Maybe some one else - France? offers to push for WTO memebership for North Korea, maybe sell it reactors ;-)

I think several good things might come out of the resolution of this - U.S., China and Japan will end up working together for "stability" or some other code word for not having crazies blowing up cities and crashing econommies. Some integrated security understanding might emerge, which would tend to de-fuse the Taiwan situation
