Anyone remember what happened when the US broke a treaty ? <!--emo& Damn hypocrites.<span id='postcolor'> Who cares really. They all break treaties. On the other hand, US must have a record though!

By signing a treaty you are sort of expected to fulfill the "deal". I just pointed a finger at you for moralizing against North Korea. It's ironic when you come to think of what the good ol' of USA has been doing for a longe time. ??

advocatexxx 0 Posted October 18, 2002 Lol, in other words the fact that America posesses thousands of thermonuclear warheads with the ability to deliver them anywhere in the world is perfectly okay and we're all good-hearted people, but should any other country ruled by a political system other than democracy build even a single warhead, then they're the world's most evil society and must be brought down to justice.

Maybe we should all just sit down and sing peace ballads until the NKs decide they'd like some parking space in North America. For the second: Screw France. They are getting so much cheap petroleum from the food for oil deals that gasoline has almost replaced wine as France's national liquid. Of course they wouldn't support any attack on Iraq.

Qutie a good answer I would say  <span id='postcolor'> mwahaha, yeah really. do you really think they would have been so forthcoming with their admission (to their shame) if bush wouldn't have rattled the saber so much? they're scared! the wording of the korean implies it. they're trying to forestall any dismantling of their hermit empire by US might. I agree however that the president will now have to readdress and reassess his politics with this axis of evil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skibei_neko 0 Posted October 21, 2002 I'm new to these forums (I'm purchasing the game cause the demo seemed really cool). But I notice a lot of anti-American posts. Usually I'm the first to criticize my country, its history, and my very embarrising president. However, I notice that a lot of Europeans have been anti-US/anti-Israel. I also notice that Europeans never march in protest of the extreme anti-semitism that is propogated in the state-owned media in the Arab world. I never hear about protest against suicide bombers....my feeling (and probably most American's feeling) is that Israel right or wrong, attacking deliberately attacking civilians is EVIL. It seems to me that the more suicide bombings there are, the more Europeans support the Palistinian "cause". Oh...maybee the hate and bombings will just go away when the Jewish state gives stops the settlements. NOT! OK. This is all OT. Back on topic... Yes the Korean admission makes the US case for war on Iraq hypocritical and stupid. I think that any case for war on Iraq- other than as a threat to back up the UN resolutions - is stupid and Bush's puppetmasters probably have some self-interested or weird ass motives for it. I think everyone is looking at this in the context of the US's Iraq policy when the important issue here is what will happen to NK now. You see, I believe that NK continues to exists not because it should exist, but because too many external entities want it to exist. Of course the NK commies want the state to continue because they live like kings and have secret ways to get foreign exchange to purchase luxury goods. SK wants the North government to continue because they do not want to pay for the mess of reunification (which would be 10X more expensive for them than East/West Germany reunification). China probably does not care about NK that much, but in no way will allow streams of refugees to flow accross unless someone else pays for putting them on trains and shipping them to some other country. I suspect the Bush Admin wanted NK to exist because they want a verified enemy in North Asia to further justify the military presence. The argument of keeping a military presence there for the sake of continued regional stability (and IMHO, a good argument) does not go well with people if they have no visible enemy. Now Bush has pulled U.S. energy contributions. We are saying to SK and Japan, "NK embarrased us and tried to through a wrench into our anti-Iraq modus operandi. Therefore, we aren't paying for this anymore. You want them to continue to exist, then you keep them afloat". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
