BREAKING - South Koreans this morning are reading in their newspapers that North Korea
undertook a nuclear test in the last three months.
Is this the reason for the admission of breaking the Agreement yesterday?

And since you brought it up, We have been puting pressure on Pakistan to come clean on who they shared their centerfuge technoligy with. We found out about this when we were questioning Pakistan's Nuclear Scientist over what they might have shared with Bin Laden.

Most of the money comes from their sale of missle technology and other technical expertise. They spend almost nothing on infrastructure and domestic needs, so the army gets the lion's share of their budget allotment. The money that they recieve from the 1994 agreement forged by Carter is mostly in food aid (grain and such) and other humanitarian goods such as medical supplies. Clinton, for all his faults, was not stupid enough to simply write the North Koreans a check.

Most of the advances made in missle technology by Iran, Iraq, and perhaps Pakistan have come at the direction of North Korean technicians.

Intelligence suggests that the program has been ongoing since the mid 1980's.

Remember when WE the American taxpayer built the Nuclear Power plant? Clinton was sure it was not going to be used to build bombs......How about a little nuclear blackmail now?

Interesting that Korea is not "seen " as a great threat only Iraq...we are a pitiful nation of fools..

The travesty that is modern Russia is the result of greedy pieces of S**t like Clinton. When that bast**d took office, Russia was a bright star of hope. His disastrous, short-term greed oriented myth of a foreign policy only served to help the russian mob and 'certain' american interests to corrupt and control their economy. It was RAPE. But, hey, like, we got shammed, like, you know? This stuff is no laughing matter. Young girls that are prostitutes now, should and would have been decent people with hopes and dreams. But, hey, Bubba and his buddies got theirs. That's what counts, isn't it?

BS, it allowed them to divert more money from food to weapons making.

Are you saying the Bill C and jimmie C did not divise a treaty with N Korea in 1994 that provided the exchange of tech and info and materials for building nuclear reactors to benefit N Korea's infrastructure?

Are you saying this did not happen?

Are you saying that the treaty was for grain, FOOD and not NUCLEAR REACTOR KNOWHOW?

Re #1

Guys, the title in the newspaper says that N. Korea did the "unranium enrichment" test, not the "detontation" test.

I think that somebody mistranslated it.

According to Democrat congressmen defending Clinton, we wrote them a check. We gave them MONEY for them to buy food, etc. And what did they do with the MONEY we gave them?

We knew about those two guys from the beginning and Mushariff(sp?) was questioned about them from day one and he insisted they didn't share any info, But we demanded to interview them ourselves once Mushariff was firmly in our corner and couldn't turn back. This is what started the ball rolling.

They wouldn't have bothered to spend that money anyway.

>>>Unfortantly he underestimated that his goodwill will have benefits in the interest of the US.<<<

Unfortantly Clinton was was a self-absorbed low life that was motivated only by what was good for Bill and the hell with anyone else....or the nation.

"...underestimated goodwill have benefits in the interest of the US"....don't make me laugh!

Jimmuh Cartuh negotiated that incredible dogs breakfast of a treaty.....Peace Prize......I'm sick to my stomach!

Tonight-my loathing of bill clinton has surely reached its zenith. I had never considered what you posted above....and now it makes such devastating and perfect sense. It was a travesty.

The democrats must really hate our nation to have voted in that cowardly, greedy, hollywoodized monolith of nothingness. That they did it TWICE, and could not even find the decency to THROW that scumbag out of office...speaks more about the nature and character of the dem party than anyother event ever could.

Settle down tiger.

Research the nature of the tech exchange, then come back to talk to me.
