North Korean leader Kim Jong Il expressed regret about his country's nuclear test to a Chinese delegation and said Pyongyang would return to international nuclear talks if Washington backs off a campaign to financially isolate the country, a South Korean newspaper reported Friday. "If the U.S. makes a concession to some degree, we will also make a concession to some degree, whether it be bilateral talks or six-party talks," Kim was quoted as telling a Chinese envoy, the mass- circulation Chosun Ilbo reported, citing a diplomatic source in China.

Kim told the Chinese delegation that "he is sorry about the nuclear test," the newspaper reported.

Don't believe it for a minute. Why would he suddenly make this change? It makes no sense, especially since there are talks of another test being scheduled very soon.

China is NOT our friend.

They just don't want the North attacking the American military in the south. It'll cause a mass of southern Korean immigrants flooding across THEIR border.

The shame is on anyone who believes this the first time. Words mean nothing coming from him.

Sorry . . . only because there's a serious chance he might get castrated at least slightly, economically.

"China is NOT our friend. They don't give a damn about helping us. This display of power by China has made us look ridiculous and weak"

I was thinking the same thing. The U.S. is far more powerful than China, (at least for now), but China showed a will to face down NK that the U.S. did not have.

He's not sorry, He's Sowwie!

It looks like he has the Democrat's figured out, and is betting that they will attack Bush on this if he doesn't agree to The little runt's dfemands.

Isn't it disgusting that the Democrats have made it possible for every Turd world terrorist and dictator able to black mail the USA ?

Is this treason yet?

I wonder who has been meeting with the enemy this time? Or is the same player who met with the enemy still playing the same game?

I agree. It makes China look like the new superpower of the world.
