Sounds more like a veiled attempt at nuclear blackmail to me. The ronery one is now claiming that he'll shoot a nuclear tipped missile at us if we don't talk to him one on one. This is much like a child that desperately needs to be taken to the woodshed for an attitude adjustment. I say we station a couple of carrier battle groups around the peninsula, including a few extra Trident subs for good measure, and see what the little commie has to say then. One on one......
I agree. The more time elapses, the more this whole incident stinks like Limberger. My gut tells me he either detonated a sh*tload of TNT to simulate a nuke, or his baby fizzled, (I hope!).
Either way, he rearranged a lot of NK dirt and got all the diplo-dunks knickers in a twist. He's also validated President Bush's assessment of NK as part of the "axis of evil".
Now, Kim throws another tantrum to wring further concessions from the US? A con-game indeed.
If he's not careful, Beijing is going to arrange for him to have an "accident". He's becoming inconvenient.
