There are interesting implications about this...the first being that I am sure after all the bellicose talk by our adminstration the NKans felt the need for a deterrent (or the impression of one) to buy time , and the second is that it would mean that the Carter agreement, so maligned here, actually kept them in their box for 8 years, and had we lived up to our side of the agreement (and I think both Clinton and bush faile to do so), we would have a better chance at improved relations, help for their people and certainly not the crisis we seem to have today.

Naaaaaaahhhhhhh.......the dirty commies have nukes; Clinton/Carter gave'm to them. No point checking things out......its a done deal. Let's attack.

And they claim they are smarter than liberals! What an absolute, complete joke! They buy whatever Bush tells them......no matter that his record's a bit spotty when it comes to the truth! <g>

The program was moving forward before the state of the union address. North Korea has made many agreements but then violated them again and again. What happened after the state of the union address is that the US annouced that it had evidence of the ongoing nuclear weapons program in NK.
