*Although “Pyongyang clearly did violate that accord by pursuing uranium-enrichment efforts … and thus, technically, violated the 1994 Agreed Framework as well”, the Bush administration had overreacted and by diplomatically confronting North Korea…*

Ok – this person Selig Harrison is scum. Are people like this for real? This midget Kim Jong Il is a trustfundbaby who sits atop a Prison State. Somehow I think at the root of the problem is the type of imagination that, for all its verbosity, cannot under any circumstances imagine what a police state really is. It’s not possible that they can and also string together clauses like the above. It also goes a long way to understanding how they can believe the USA is a police or a fascist state: they obviously have no idea what that quantity is.

But to return to the subject of the post: what I want to know is, are we EVER going to play the game against Communists like they do? I understand we underwrite international order and have certain obligations, but come on – France doesn’t even have 150 working tanks anymore, what the f*ck do they matter? Who cares what these people think? It’s not like our obsequiousness gets us anything but more condescension and hatred anyway.

Temporarily “believe” North Korea if it advances the game vs. Nork-China-Russia-Iran in our favor, but certainly don’t *actually* believe them.

Sorry I’ll shut up now.
