I know you didn?t read those links No, no. Don't assume that. I always check the links before I comment. Otherwise, you can make a fool of yourself. Your work in finding and posting them did not go unappreciated. Korea's reason for deciding to loosen up won't be known for sure for a lot of years, if it is ever known. When you are running the show, you get credit for the good things and take the lumps for the bad things. That's Politics!

KC.. I did read those links.. And I still believe that were it not for Bush ramping up the rhetoric and placing N. Korea on the "axis of evil", they would still be pussy-footing around and trying to cut a better deal.. The time for "deal-making" is fast closing to an end in Korea and other intransigent nations. They need to cut that "deal" now, while they can still do so. Kim Jong Il knows this and that's likely why they are willing to finally quit putting up the obstacles they have in the past. Velvet gloved negotiations are seldom successful unless there's a hammer lurking in the backgroun. Hawk
