Hillary Tells Norks to Stop Provocations
2010-04-27
There. That oughta do it.
The United States on Friday called on North Korea to refrain from provocations and return to the six-party talks table to solve problems within the multilateral dialogue framework.

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who was visiting Tallinn, Estonia for a meeting of NATO foreign ministers, was asked by an AFP reporter, "In North Korea, there is increasing talk of war. The North Koreans are talking about being on the brink of war, following this incident of the sunk Navy ship. And they've even seized or sealed some buildings at a South Korean-owned mountain resort in North Korea."

Clinton answered she hoped that "there is no talk of war, there is no action or miscalculation that could provoke a response that might lead to conflict. That's not in anyone's interest. The way to resolve the outstanding differences among not only the North and South Koreans but the neighbors, including ourselves, is to return to the six-party talk framework as soon as possible."

To wit,

BHARAT RAKSHAK/TOPIX > US: SYRIA, IRAN ARMING HEZBOLLAH WITH IMPROVED MISSLES. Gates also indic that Hezbollah has more missles than most World Govts-States, the NEW MISSLES = SCUDS are vERY DESTABILZ, + that SYRIA'S MILSYS, ACTION vee trasnfer to Hezbollah can easily upset the delicate/fragile balance of power in Lebanon.

SCUDS [dual-use] > Middle East = Arab-Israeli GAMECHANGER.

#5  I think Obama"s people are piping mad and may even think about suggesting to the UN, provided they can get agreement on wording, to consider sending Kimmie to his room without his super, if this ever happens again without their consultation. OK, I'll turn off the obfuscation key now.
