Apologize or pay dearly, N Korea tells Bush

BEIJING — North Korea's official media on Friday demanded U.S. President George W Bush apologize for recent "reckless" remarks faulting North Korean leader Kim Jong Il or else the North Korean people will "make him pay dearly" for them.

"The Bush administration should make a sincere apology to the Korean people for Bush's reckless remarks," the Minju Joson newspaper said in a commentary. "The people and army of the DPRK will never tolerate any attempt to do harm to it." (Kyodo News)

There are no Korean people north of the DMZ.

Unless we do something, and make a statement, it's open season on America. Maybe the year 2001 is our last.

Nothing about them eating the underbrush off the landscape? Geez. Bush is much too polite.

U.S. Department of State Office of the Spokesman Press Statement

Statement by Richard Boucher, Spokesman October 6, 2000

Joint U.S.-DPRK Statement on International Terrorism

The United States and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea held a series of talks in March, August, and October 2000, at which the two sides expressed their views on the issue of international terrorism.

At the talks, the two sides agreed that international terrorism poses an unacceptable threat to global security and peace, and that terrorism should be opposed in all its forms, including terrorist acts involving chemical, biological, or nuclear devices or materials.

During the talks, the DPRK side affirmed that, as a matter of official policy and as its government has stated previously, it opposes all forms of terrorism against any country or individual. The DPRK noted that it was the responsibility of every UN member state to refrain from organizing, instigating, facilitating, financing, encouraging, or tolerating terrorist activities.

On the basis of their common concerns about the threat of terrorism to international peace and stability, the two sides underscored their commitment to support the international legal regime combating international terrorism and to cooperate with each other in taking effective measures to fight against terrorism. The sides shared the view that such measures included not providing material support or resources, including safehaven, to terrorists and terrorist groups, bringing terrorists to justice, and fighting terrorist acts against the safety of civil aviation and maritime navigation. The two sides joined in encouraging all UN member states to sign and become a party to all twelve UN counterterrorism conventions.

As a demonstration of their cooperation in the fight against international terrorism, the US and the DPRK intend to exchange information regarding international terrorism and to resolve outstanding issues in this regard between the two sides. Taking account of the DPRK's opposition to international terrorism, the U.S. side noted that, as the DPRK satisfactorily addresses the requirements of U.S. law, the U.S. will work in cooperation with the DPRK with the aim of removing the DPRK from the list of state sponsors of terrorism.

I think President Bush will leave them on the list.

Man, it's too bad we have so many leftist whimps in this country (like Byron Schaeffer who did "Religion on the Line" on WABC in NYC this morning) because it sure is time to start kicking some global behind.

Dust off the Nukes George and aim them all in appropriate directions because for the first time in my life (and this includes the Cuban Missile Crisis) I feel like we might just find ourselves in a situation in which we have to let all of those birdies fly. If anything nuclear happens here I want to know that every enemy nation and everyone in them will evaporate that very day.

There is only one country called Korea, the South. Just like Taliban, the north is nothing but an illegimate communist/terrorist regime.

"The people and army of the DPRK will never tolerate any attempt to do harm to it."

This is too funny. Oh, geez, what to do, what to do?
Are these the same people and army that would be starving if it weren't for the aids they are getting from Korea? Oh yeah, let's not mention that a lot of Kim Jung Il's old people over there stopped eating, so that their young could have whatever meager things they have left to eat.

BTW, what did president Bush say anyway? I hope he called Kim Jung Il for what he is, an evil straight from hell just like his evil father, Kim Il Sung, and of course, Osama boy.

Maybe the year 2001 is our first in a LONG time that we just go ahead and tell little commie ba$t@rd$ to suck it up or say hi to the Navy and the Air Force.  As long as we go at this with PC and "global" interests over riding what we need to do to protect AMERICANS we are just gonna keep on hearing this bs.
