He just wants to be left alone to oppress his people and try and blackmail tribute from Japan and China. He'd like to rule the South as well, but he's prepared to pass on that one. -- William Black I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach Time for tea. |

He'd like to rule the South as well, but he's prepared to pass on that one. As often as I disagree with Wm, here he's on the right track. "Dear Leader", ruling a country with no viable capability to become economically self-supporting, has no real alternative but to come up with schemes by which others can be forced, cajoled or convinced to provide subsidies. The "we'll quit playing with nukes" ploy during the Clinton years was certainly a successful scheme which brought substantial fulfillment of needs from food to POL (without lessening development ofa nuclear program). The latest chapter is simply a logical next step....almost as was SH's "nuclear program", the "I'm packing a big hawgleg into the saloon, and those *******s better buy my drinks." approach to international economics.

Judging by the number of people in DPRK that are not able to heat their homes because of no heating oil, I would say that he has very little. JD |

Bad judgement, I'd lay odds that the military has more than enough POL squirelled away for a war. Keith |

I rather doubt that, China has been giving the DPRK just enough fuel and food to prevent collapse. The China of today needs access to world markets, ultimately they value that more highly than any links with the DPRK. Keith |
