"In our confrontation with North Korea we have the support of North Korea's neighbors, the Chinese and Japanese. That's pretty persuasive." Well then, in our confrontation with Iraq we had close to global support. We had unanimous support in the UN Security Council for Resolution 1441. Congress voted overwhelmingly to give the Bush Admin authorization to use force to remove Saddam if Iraq continued to refuse to cooperate with UN sanctions. And the Coalition of the willing was more than 60 countries strong. As I have already shown, those who later reneged had uleterior reasons, including US politicians. So why are you supportive of the policy for N Korea when the US had broad support against Iraq?

"then I hear that I am a "partisan ideolog."" Well, look at the facts. You cycled through a number of "ideas", opinions & beliefs in our first discussion a while back. You offered no specifics or no factual credible evidence. I noted that many of these "ideas" are no more than recycled, albeit discredited partisan attacks lacking merit. Then I countered each one with a plethora of factual, accurate & credible evidence that clearly refuted each of your unsupportable "ideas", opinions & beliefs. So here we are again. And like your ideologically partisan peers, you are recycling through those same discredited sound bites as though they still have credibility. What is a reasonable person to conclude?
