Seems like North Korea's launching of their missiles would fit your definition of "diplomacy."


Figures that you wouldn't get the "art" of diplomacy. Too much like "nuance"... above your head.

Japan pushes for sanctions on N. Korea By NICK WADHAMS, Associated Press Writer

Over Chinese and Russian objections, Japan introduced a draft Security Council resolution Friday that would impose sanctions on North Korea for its series of rocket test-launches and also order a halt to its development of ballistic missiles.

Ted, Diplomacy is the art of trying to get what you want while giving up as little as possible.

Seems like North Korea's launching of their missiles would fit your definition of "diplomacy."


No, because in the process, he told us as much more than we knew before........that his technology sucks and that he can't load a nuke warhead on a missile. Don't you get it........Bush, and jong il are cut from the same cloth.....they don't know how to be diplomatic so they wave sabers hoping that will scare everyone and then ending up giving away more than they've gained.

Believe or not, clever diplomats are/were Hussein and the guy from Iran. Hussein had everyone convinced Iraq was a powerhouse when it was a paper tiger and he managed to get a lot of freebies. The guy from Iraq is playing the West for all that its worth. Look how many goodies he's piled up already.

No, Bush and jong il are pikers by comparison.
