The Next Revelation About North Korea
« on: January 13, 2003, 09:18:32 AM »
What ya wanna bet that the next revelation about North Korea is that China has been "sharing" the missile guidance technology it?  That's the same missile guidance technology that the previous administration so generously "shared" with the Chinese, despite warnings from military and security experts.

Let's have some fun.  Let's all make some predictions about future events and see who's right and who's but turns out the blackest!  :D

Why would you sell your neighboring country equipment to build nuclear weapons, when said country is run by a man who is to put it simply, nuts?  Perhaps the chinese are that stupid, but I doubt it.

I think the N Koreans are full of toejam..they are whining too much about American aggression and diverting attention from their behavior to be serious. whining like victims of our policies..cutting off their fuel oil supply..well DUH..they boast about a nuclear program and having bombs.. they know that if they set off one of their shiny new bombs anywhere..S Korea..or Japan the US would rain Hot Yankee Fission on them and reduce N Korea to the world's largest radiocactive parking lot.

tho I have to agree that the back-alley deals between China and N Korea have probably involved US tech.

Predictions? The US will increase food aid to North Korea during 2003 despite the fact that the US is already the largest supplier of food aid to North Korea.

Desires? That the US will advise all US citizens to immediately leave South Korea, pull out every single US soldier 6 months after that announcement and then stop all food aid to North Korea the next day.

Let them eat plutonium..... or let the South Koreans feed them when they come storming across the DMZ.

It's their peninsula... time the rest of the world let them run it the way they see fit.

After all, they're not really a threat to world peace.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Iraq is the bad guy..Just that Saddam asked that other KooK to take some heat off him and create a greater threat to World Order.
Soon everything will get Ironed out with NK and Saudi Arabia will raise the tension because Guantanamo sp.? wont give them back Their State Sponsered Terrorists.
 All in all a Fiendish plot to keep the bad guys from getting invaded and constantly cycling thru the baddest of the bad for the momment.
Next we will find Pakistan breaking off their pact with the US because their state sponsered terrorists are being forced to register with the INS, and everyone KNOWS, there is no entry for that profession on the forms they have to fill out.

Well, don't be surprised if China makes a move on Taiwan.  The fact that the US has to operate from a "political correctness" point of view in regard to its foreign policy makes the US weak and an open book to anyone who wants to make trouble.  Because most of the free world feels that they must be consulted before any action can be taken by the US just inhibits any military threat the US may want to project.  The US should let the UN handle the entire issue of N Korea.  The US should pull out of S Korea and turn over the protection they have provided to the UN.  It’s time for the US to start looking after its own national interest instead of the worlds’.  If the US is to have their hands tied by the UN then the UN must step up to the plate and handle these problems.

The continued bashing of US policy without an alternative makes it pointless for the US to continue.

 So we Agree OZ? State sponsered Terrorism and no Double standards should be allowed?

OZkansas,

Well said.  Why should South Korea's security be solely OUR responsibility?  If the U.N. countries want to pontificate then let them shoulder some of the load.

Innominate,

Why wouldn't the Chinese give North Korea's government the technology?  They've been sharing military weaponry with them for decades.  The Chinese have constantly used the North Korean Bug-a-Bear for their own ends.  The leader of North Korea isn't crazy enough to threaten to use nuclear weaponry against the Chinese because he realizes that the Chinese would have no reservations whatsoever about turning his country into a glowing wasteland.

No, I don't think the Chinese have actually given the missile guidance technology to the North Koreans, but it would not suprise me in the least to learn that they HAD done so.

Ping-

The point is NK is isolated from us, the big players China and Russia are there, and frankly, they don't want us around. Time to pull out of there.

Iraq is a different bird... we warred with them just 12 years ago, they failed to live up to the terms of surrender, and they have actively supported efforts against us. They are also a direct threat against our ally (Israel). We cannot leave them alone.

if the chinese had given missle tech. the n. kora, they'd have missle w/ range better than 2000 mile...anyway how well aimed does a nuclear missle need to be? i'd bet GPS (+ simple interpolation for the time lag) is good enough for guidance...i wonder if SAC can toggle off GPS if they think an enemy missle using it has been launched
