| Check out the story. The picture of Dear Leader is worth it. BEIJING — North Korea accused the United States of leading the region toward war Thursday in an apparent attempt by the communist nation to increase pressure on negotiators holding a second day of talks on its nuclear programs. It's leaders are outraged over U.S. moves to cut off oil shipments because of its suspected nuclear weapons program, and fears it is next on Washington's list for military action. Outraged! Outraged, I tell you! "The situation on the Korean Peninsula is so tense that a war may break out any moment due to the U.S. moves," the North's KCNA news agency. I hate it when war "breaks out" It said relations with the United States had hit "rock bottom" because President Bush named North Korea as part of an "axis of evil," along with Iran and Iraq North Korea also said it was ready to settle the dispute over its suspected nuclear weapons programs and that the "master key" for successful talks was for the United States to drop its hostile policy toward Pyongyang. Hostile is NKor code for "Show me the Money!" If we don't get some U.S. money soon, Dear Leader will have to eat the same grass that the rest of our people eat. North Korea and China fought against the United States in the 1950-53 Korean War, which ended without a peace treaty. North Korea and Washington have no formal relations and are still technically at war. I was pretty certain before, but now I'm convinced. Finishing the war is the solution. Game on. China, the North's ally and major aid donor, nevertheless says it doesn't want Pyongyang to acquire nuclear weapons and has appealed for a negotiated settlement to the crisis. No way they're gonna help the U.S. They're just looking for a hand-out too. The North likely wants aid for its economy, which has been crippled by the loss of Soviet subsidies and years of drought and mismanagement. Why would they need money? They have all the grass and Juche they need. |

| #4 The NK threats during negotiations wear thin after 50 yearsh, Shunny. Unless they make a 180 in their philosophy and attitude, we need to talk them to death and let them crater. Under NO circumstances should we give them ANY handout. It just enables them to go on the same way longer. If China wants them to be a thorn in our side, let the ChiComs finance them. |

| #2 Maybe the SARS outbreak is China's subtle method for taking care of the North Korean problem -- anybody see any pictures of the NKor neggotiator, and was he wearing a mask? |
