Such news, after all, would have torpedoed Clinton administration claims that their diplomacy had succeeded in ending North Korea's nuclear threat. In fact, Klinton liked to run around and talk about how sucessful his "Sushine Policy" with the evil DPRK was - when in fact it was all a ruse and built on a house of cards, further built upon lies. Now we also are finding out that the Liberals in South Korea paid the North off to meet them! We all knew about the multi-staged rocket tests here on FR in 1999, but no one in the mainstream media cared to mention it.

They also state the Clinton team were amateurs, and were really fooled when they visited Yongbyon on inspection missions. These North Koreans played good shell games and flattered their guests (mass games, banquets, maybe even prostitutes) and in the field acted like they must have gone to the same 'Fool the International Inspectors School' that the Iraqis went to. All of this damning stuff on Clinton, Albright and Carter about North Korea is out there, but most of it is floating around in Japanese or Korean, and would never have been noticed in the US at the time because of so little interest in Asia. Bush 44 Post Reply | 45 Private Reply | 46 To 3 | 47 View Replies To: George W. We're fighting Al-Quaeda but then seemingly out of nowhere comes the axis of evil - Iraq, Iran, North Korea. It seems clear to me that the list of countries on the axis-of-evil was carefully formulated. Bush Wouldn't be so bad if the dem pols were suicidal morons if they only harmed themselves. They have made a good step towards destroying the world. President Clinton's brother, who visited north Korea from Dec. I have taken a means of music to promote better understanding and exchanges between the two countries. I think the Pyongyang concert was of great significance for restoring peace to the two Koreas and the United States. I think my Pyongyang visit this time will help expedite the bilateral relationships. They fully showed their excellent music talent at the concert. The concert proved that it was possible to realize a better north-south relationship if they cooperate. It is nothing but a tragedy that Korea has been divided even now when we are close to the coming new millennium. The problem should be settled by peaceful means as early as possible. You visited Pammunjom, which is called a symbol of division of the Korean Peninsula. In what way do you think can we contribute to the reunification of Korea as an American? This fact demonstrates, I think, a positive development favorable to the development of pending issues. But I believe, through art and culture, I am able to do the thing that politicians can't do it. Art and culture are familiar to people and have a great influence on them. I was much impressed by the warm reception of Pyongyangites. I am very proud of having performed in Pyongyang and I will keep it in mind that this was a great generosity that the Korean people and government granted to me. I would like to convey my gratitude to the DPRK leader Kim Jong Il for allowing me to perform in his country. During my Pyongyang visit, I could see Pyongyang people's life, tradition, their hopes for the future and their love for their compatriots. I had had my own image for north Korea once but the fact is different in many aspects. For instance, I did not perceive any threatening atmosphere that I heard of. As you know, north Korea is a socialistic country that is based on ideological principles. The county has a lot of different points compared with America. I have no intention to objecting people who makes a living according to their belief. Any people can live in their own way that they think right. For example, the performance that I saw at Mangyongdae Students and Children Palace was very wonderful. It was a great performance that you won't find in any other parts of the world. I have an idea that no oppressive means would lead a peaceful settlement of the Korean issue. I have received a message of peace from Pyongyang, which I will correctly convey to our people. The risk has increased as North Korea, Iran and other nations build missiles with greater ranges and in underground weapons facilities in order to hide activity, said Air Force Gen. A congressionally appointed panel of experts issued a report last week suggesting the intercontinental ballistic missile threat to the United States was immediate instead of more than a decade away as predicted by the Central Intelligence Agency. North Korea has evolved it into a longer-range missile, something like eight hundred/nine hundred miles, so called no dawn missile, and that's the kind of missile, for instance, that Pakistan test-fired early in June, a missile very similar to the no dawn. North Korea has said needs money and a couple of weeks ago it said it's going to go on manufacturing and selling missiles. Now, what will its engineers do when they've finished wit the no dawn, which they have? They'll find another product either for the commercial markets, or for their own use, and they're working on a longer range missile too. They haven't test fired it, and that's the one that could go perhaps as far as the westernmost islands of Hawaii or some of the Allutions, and if they worked harder on it and made it out of aluminum, then it could reach the United States, itself, the main 48 contiguous states. Still, I'm left wondering: if he knows so much more than we do, why is he leaving the Mexican border open and not cracking down a lot more heavily on INS?
