Let me see, Israel took care of the cooling towers Hussein of the Assyria was building… perhaps Achmeddhimmijihad has welcomed NK assets to further their efforts to blow up the Dome of the Rock and blame it on Bib Netanyahu.

Was it one of his spokespeople or Dubya who said denuclearization? Because I’m surprised he can think a word that long.

I must say, Willie, though I’m not versed in Diplomatic Relations — your taste in Korean Man-Doll art is superb. Where’d he get those cheeks & glasses?!

Any ‘public’ progress on the North Korean Nuclear situation will have traveled through China for approval. China has been the historic ‘elder brother’ to any foreign adventures, for any reason, on the Korean peninsula.

If this works, it is because China has said to NK and Kim Jung Ill, ‘make it work.’ In 1970s, Nixon’s trip to China put the brakes on the fighting along the DMZ which involved the US 2d & 7th Divisions, which allowed us to ‘back out’ of Viet Nam without two fronts to worry about.

No ‘big brother’ exhist in the Middle East. A bit harder nut to crack.
