Ted, I'm not so sure Clinton was about to get tough with North Korea. The way Carter put it, it sounded like all sides were itching for war. The truth was that North Korea was no more likely to attack than at any other point in post-armistice history. Hence my comment that the only policy Clinton had to pursue was maintaining the status quo, which if you think about it, is the default policy you pursue when you don't have anything else. I don't feel like doing a search at the moment to confirm this, but just from Carter's words alone, I can tell that he is exaggerating the situation at the time, perhaps unintentionally. Tenchusatsu
