North Korea Admits Nuclear Weapons Program
Fox News | 10/16/02 | Brytani

Breaking News on Fox

Fox has just confirmed North Korea has admitted to the United States that they have a secret nuclear weapons program. This breaks a treaty signed with the Clinton Administration, in exchange for N. Korea not having nuclear weapons, the US agreed to build non-lethal nuclear plants for them.

Once again, Clinton's treaties turn out to be worth as much as his word.

I will guarantee you that the reason why GWB included N. Korea among the "Axis of Evil" is because he knew exactly what N. Korea was up to.

Let me ask you something that should make you understand how stupid and out of touch our white house correspondants and mainstream media is today!!!!

If we can listen to sattelite phone converstions from the other side of the planet and read the lettering on a golf ball with our spy sattelites, Why would we not be able to see exactly what N. Korea or any other Nation we want to keep an eye on?

The problem here is that the evil leaders of this world were quite capable of seeing that Bill Clinton was a spineless worm, that was only serving himself and not the nation he was supposed to serve. They clearly understtod that they had an opportunity to build up their offensive capabilities while a cowardly stain like Clinton was in office. Why else would China and Indonesia (John Riady) be so willing to contribute to the 1996 Clinton/Gore re-election campaign?

I would be willing to bet that N. Korea, China, Iraq, Iran Indonesia and all other evil empires were as disappointed to see George W. Bush win the 2000 election as Al Gore and Joe Lieberman were.

Thanks so much, Albright, Reich, Christopher, and the rest of you room-temperature IQs that served Clinton.

You're assuming that the "treaty" was made in good faith on both sides. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if the Clinton stooges made this treaty just for some headlines with the full knowledge that the NKs had no intention of fulfilling it. And hey, their communist buddies get a free nuke reactor out of the deal too...

This is a great opportunity for Bush to get out of his pursuit of Clintonian rank appeasement of North Korean dictators by stopping the construction of two US sponsored large nuclear reactors which will enable them to increase their nuclear warhead production to sixty a year. Sadly, the latest statements coming out of the State Department indicate that the Bush appeasement of North Korea is likely to continue even after they admit they are continuing nuke production in violation of the Agreed Framework.

Of course, this means that next year's Nobel Prize winner will be Kim Jong-Il.

Japanese press now reports from CNN the exchange that took place between Kelly of State Dept. and his N. Korean counterpart in Pyongyang last week, Comrade Kan. Kan stated that Kelly put the photographic evidence in front of him. Then Kan replied to Kelly: "Your President has referred to (our Republic) as one of the nations of so--called "Axis of Evil". But your country stations its troops on the Korean peninsula. Naturally we have developed our nuclear program in response."

Just posted now on the Sankei Shimbun site.

Japanese press just now (Sankei Shimbun): Bush called together the National Security Council (NSC) yesterday, i.e 15 OCTOBER, and he then called down the leaders of the Congress for a briefing with them. At that time, evidence and the seriousness of the situation was relayed. They also said they had evidence this stuff was going back until the mid 1990s.

For all the Communist and Socialist propaganda bombarding the peace-niks of the sixties paid off in spades when Bill Clinton was elected. Josef Stalin rolled over and cracked a smile when Bill Clinton was sworn in.

I truly believe that we are only beginning to see just how treasonous Bill & Hillary Clinton were as they traded our national security for campaign contributions that would help keep them in power.

"In response"? Those troops have been there for almost 50 years.

Mo1, I have conversed with you here long enough to know just how much you see what is going on, I only directed my comments at you to vent my hatred for Bill Clinton and all those in his administration who turned a blind eye while he was selling all of what so many of our brave soldiers have faught and died for.

I can't tell you how badly I hate Bill Clinton.

Kudos to you my friend,

Mike

You are absolutely right about the Clintons, the extent of their treason is just starting to show up. I think we're in,or on the brink of, a fight for civilization itself.

(Mainichi News reporting now): Undersecretary Kelly of State Dept. met with the senior Japanese government on 6 October, on his swing through Tokyo from Pyongyang where he had his talks on 4 October, and the exchange of photos and provocative North Korean admissions and threats occured.

He met with Fukuda, Chief Cabinet Secretary, and told them about the North Korean nuke development. But, he also urged them to keep quiet and say nothing publicly. They (Japan) then kept a cool face for the last week.

Further, Bush apparantly told Japanese PM Koizumi at their summit meeting on 17 September.

Some provocative voices are wondering what in fact North Korea said to the American side, if they just did not deny, or they specifically admitted to it. Also, they question the timing; was it done just now to put the brakes on North Korea-Japan normalization talks that were speeding up? They claim certain 'factions' or 'voices' within the US government put this out there, because they viewed the visit of kidnapped Japanese to Tokyo as somehow speeding up Japan's warm overture to North Korea, and wanted to make sure they did not go to far and to confirm the defense relationship and structure.
