Can't Find the "North Korea Blinks" thread
« on: September 03, 2007, 09:47:46 AM »
Did the search thing.

So unless the thread is encoded to avoid detection I guess I'll be the first to ask: :D

Dare we say "breakthrough" regarding the latest developments with NK?

They will say anything and claim to do what they say they will do. Later on once the goodies have been delivered ol' "dear leader" will renege on the deals and or have his own secret programs going to continue to do what the hell he wants to do.

In exchange, the economically struggling North will receive oil and other aid. The United States, as part of the agreement, promised to begin the process of removing the country from the terrorism list and work toward full diplomatic relations.

The goodies-
"North Korea has already received 50,000 tons of heavy fuel oil from Seoul in return for the shutdown of its plutonium reactor in July.

The energy-starved country will eventually get further energy or other aid equivalent to 950,000 tons of heavy fuel oil in return for irreversibly disabling the reactor and ending all its nuclear programs, but has yet to set a date by when it will disable its nuclear facilities." Key factor here, no date set, no mention of confirmation either

"Another point of disagreement has been over allegations that North Korea has a second, undeclared nuclear weapons program using enriched uranium. North Korea said recently it was willing to discuss the issue, although it did not acknowledge having such a program."
More smoke and mirrors than a freaking Las Vegas magician convention. No there are no secret programs...until one is found then it will be shut down.......Until it's moved to another location to continue in secret or until "dear leader" figures he's got enough goodies to back away from the deal and do what he wants again thumbing his nose at the stupid round eyes who bought the same trick AGAIN!
