well, clinton started it by giving north korea some nuclear reactors or something, and bush thought it was a good idea too and (fulfilled the contract or whatever) and gave them two more.


when madeline albright visited north korea she publicly stated that it was just great there.


now fit that into whatever propaganda based model youre using.

Brad,


That is an extremely loose definition of "nuclear proliferation". Having a functional nuclear reactor for the purpose of generating power is a far leap from creating a nuclear bomb. Even the radioactive waste from such a powerplant would be useful only towards the aptly named "dirty-bomb' which would be more of a nuisance than a serious nuclear threat.

-------------------

Add two big question marks to the mysteries that envelop North Korea's

schizophrenic rulers, who rage as bullies one moment and beg for food the

next: What did the Pyongyang regime do to help Pakistan develop and explode

its first nuclear bomb last year? And why?


Intelligence experts in Europe and in Washington have mulled these questions

and failed to come up with clear answers. "We can say that North Korean

technology was helpful to Pakistan in this area," one European expert

carefully told me. "But what North Korea did exactly and what it got in

return remains in the realm of gossip."

well, lets give em more then. i hear its a workers paradise over there.
