I'd begin talks to see if we could return to the Clinton regieme

You would begin talks to see if the nuclear program could continue in secret again so that we wouldn't have to think about it for a few years?

Then take it from there. Use some CARROT, less STICK.

Clinton's "solution" was almost all carrot. The problem with that is Kim can keep coming back for more carrots. In fact he took the carrots and continued to work on nuclear weapons.

since the Clinton agreement didn't cover enriching uranium

Which means it wasn't very useful.

"The NK were enriching uranium"

As it turns out, they might not have been doing that. Since this came up, I tried to find sources for exactly what NK was doing. Apparently, the Bush administration just announced that they were enriching uranium and didn't offer any proof. In addition, there are many who were dubious that NK had access to the technology to enrich uranium. It is not like you can build those centrifuges in your garage. But, in those innocent days, I was more likely to take the administration at their word...
