. "If there were no “axis of evil” claim, then North Korea would never have felt to be threaten to this degree."

But they broke the 1994 deal in 1998 when clinton was still president. Evil thing to do, no???

"Another proof, in 1976 (?) or so, a vice Premier from the South Korea and his delegation got assassinated in Thailand.

By disapproving but not warning SK, china was comlicit. They may not give crazy regime nukes but they may give them the prereqs for building nukes.

Internet arena, China will for sure surpass the US in the near future.

Yes, it will be a wonderful day (for democracy) when everyone in China (including dissidents) can access/use the internet freely.

China has a great wealth of brainpower and a large dedicated group of scientists who are selfless and do not think money is everything in the world.

As opposed to all those evil, capitalist, American scientists????

LOL
