Kim: North off U.S. terrorism list
March 09, 2007
TOKYO ¯ The United States has already agreed to take North Korea off Washingtons list of states that sponsor terrorism and a follow-up development will happen soon, Kim Gye-gwan, North Koreas vice foreign minister, said yesterday.
The United States is expected to release a new list in April. Mr. Kim said no conditions were placed on North Koreas removal from the list.
After two days of talks in New York with his American counterpart, Christopher Hill, Mr. Kim arrived at Narita International Airport in Tokyo last night and spoke to reporters briefly on his way back to Pyongyang.
Spring is coming, so the atmosphere will change, Mr. Kim said, describing the first round of normalization talks as constructive. He also said the discussion included North Koreas cooperation in the investigation of a highly enriched uranium-based nuclear arms program.
Mr. Kim said he and Mr. Hill also discussed the possibility of arranging a foreign minister-level meeting among the two Koreas, China, Japan, Russia and the United States. It will probably take place around April, Mr. Kim said. It is, however, not to upgrade the six-party talks. It is for the six ministers to get together to give momentum to the six-party talks. Asked whether Pyongyang will make more demands after financial sanctions on North Korean accounts in a bank in Macao, China are lifted, Mr. Kim said, Just think that things are going well. Dont try to know too much about it.

Ping!
I guess this is a good thing. The axis of evil was Iraq, North Korea, and Iran. Two axi gone, one axi left. Allah Allah axi free.
It appears to not make any difference who is in office..
America is every bit as stupid and naive as the world believes us to be....
We're playing Charlie Brown to North Korea's Lucy.
We never seem to catch on to the fact that Lucy will ALWAYS pull the football away..
Semper Fi

North Korea has been on the list of states sponsoring terrorism since 1988. There is no reason to remove them: great goodness, the North Koreans just thumbed their noses again at the Japanese over the kidnapping issue.
I swear I kept looking for the punchline... knowing it had to be satire.
This is truly unbelievable.
