I would have kept up with the Clinton strategy and worked toward a continued opening between N. Korea and S. Korea.

I would have "pressured" them and used the light water reactor as leverage to allow inspectors to get in there and get those "rods" out of the country so they couldn't pull them for nuke material.

I'd have "sucked up" to them the way Albright did when she made her visit, while all the while telling them that we HAD to have some good faith movement on their part to keep things "underwraps" while we worked on a mutual defense treaty.

I'd have sent people in to "play them", the way they usually play us. If you want to "diffuse" a bomb it's usually better to "finesse" it rather than to hit it with a hammer.

After we went into Afghanistan SO easily we had SO many options, with N. Korea AND Iran, but the Bush Administration just THREW THOSE AWAY.
