<<WHY???!!!!! Why is a multi-lateral approach so wrong?>>

I answered this question. I will repeat if you like:

We threatened North Korea, and did this for the most trivial grandstanding reasons in the now-infamous "axis of evil" speech. China and South Korea did not threaten North Korea. North Korea wants to talk about OUR threat to THEM. That has nothing to do with either China or South Korea.

The alternatives to talking are: (1) Watch while North Korea builds its nuclear arsenal -- which they are now merrily doing -- and face the consequences down the road, and (2) Go to war now.
