The point that being "nice" to the DNK worked much better than being "mean" still stands.

Considering the U.S. has withdrawn from a few treaties (KYOT0 sp.)in recent times leads me to consider that critisizing N. Korea for doing the same is bit on the hypocritical side.

As far as opinion goes, this thread seems to be 99% opinion, but you know the old saying... opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one. [img]smile.gif[/img]

It doesn't take a genius to realize the cause and effect relationship between a policy of gunship diplomacy and an escelation of tension. Just my opinion.

Either way I think we can all agree that peace is far more preferable to war on the Korean penisula. I think the challenge is finding the best way to encourage peace. Obviously Clinton did a much better job of it.

Well considering the circular nature of this arguement, I'll let this be my last post on the topic unless some new opinion or fact garners my attention.
