#2 Why aren't South Korea or Japan worried about this? It doesn't seem like they're half as concerned as we are.

#3 g wiz - Nkor doesnt need to nukes to kill huge numbers of S. Koreans, artillery will do it. The nukes are more of a problem in terms of spread to terrorists or other rogue states (sold for hard currency?) and so is more of a problem to the US than to the region. Japan has been tougher in its rhetoric than SKor.

#4 Gwiz...Japan has been EXTREMELY vocal about North Korea's nuke program - in THEIR newspapers, which don't seem to get much play here in the States. They're even talking about expanding the size and role of their military, and cooperating with the US on anti-missile technology. It's a very short flight from Pyongyang to about half of Japan.

#5 It's time for Powell to announce that food aid will also be terminated. Also, we'll put the screws to the South Koreans and the Japanese about forex remittances.
