Bush Administration to start paying off North Korea again. After all their attacks on Clintonites for doing this. What hypocrites. Everyone knows we have no military option there. The Axis Of Evil speech was the biggest problem. It provoked NK. You dont provoke a mad dog. You either cage it and feed it or you kill it. And killing NK would mean a massive bloody war. No oil there so Bush isn't interested.

Feb. 21, 2003 | ELMENDORF AIR FORCE BASE, Alaska (AP) -- Secretary of State Colin Powell said Friday the United States will announce shortly a new food donation to North Korea despite a developing crisis over the country's nuclear weapons programs.

Powell made the disclosure during a refueling stop here while en route to a three-day excursion to Japan, China and South Korea.


He said the Bush administration might have made a food donation earlier but was unable to do so because Congress had not approved legislation until recently providing money for food assistance.

"We don't use food as a political weapon," Powell told reporters, reaffirming long-standing U.S policy.
