Inode, > Do you think the saber-rattling out of NK has anything at all to do with Obama's incompetent plan to cut missile defense spending? I don't. In fact, I think NK would have done the same thing regardless of whether Obama or McCain were in office. Even if we resurrected Gen. Douglas MacArthur and made him president, NK would do the same thing. Tenchusatsu

In 2006 North Korea launched 7 missiles, including long range missiles. Bush responded with a call for diplomacy: sfgate.com "My message was that we want to solve this problem diplomatically, and the best way to solve this problem diplomatically is for all of us to be working in concert," Bush said. "Diplomacy takes a while," he said, "We're spending time, diplomatically, making sure that voice is unified." Later that year North Korea detonated a nuclear device. In 2008 Bush took North Korea off the list of nations which support terrorism. SD
