Hopes fading for breakthrough in North Korean nuclear crisis
AP [ Full story »» ] reports: European diplomats, who had three days of talks in Pyongyang, reported that the communist government was not easing up on its earlier preconditions for the talks. "They cannot possibly dismantle their program until they have all the assurances they need for their security. They see the nuclear weapons option as indispensable for their national security," said Percy Westerlund, director of external relations for the European CommissionPosted by Oskar van Rijswijk at December 14, 2003 01:39 PM | TrackBack Comments
Note to KIJ, get your spider hole dug. Posted by: Mark Buehner at December 14, 2003 10:42 PM was there ever hope to begin with?
Posted by: gijoe at December 16, 2003 11:41 AM The concept of 'national security' must come as a novel waste of time to the starving people of North Korea. If they have a dozen nuclear bombs, if they have 3 dozen nuclear bombs, how much more time is that going to buy the NK Big Boy in an exchange? If they were to use one nuclear weapon against their neighbors or US protectorates, they would invite the Shitstorm of the Ages upon their withered and emaciated heads.

Posted by: Jeff B at December 20, 2003 01:20 PM Time is running out big time for Dear Leader. As he struts around, CenCom gathers more intel and simulates more and more scenarios - a fair share using nukes, I would imagine. The US and its allies will have long ago realised that negotiation is futile with this little fucker, and Libya is proof of how dangerous he is. We never thought we'd see Hiroshima again, but the US is the only country with a proven record of using massive weapons to enforce world peace.
