More like the North Koreans ran out of dogs, cats and rodents to eat. If they are really going to unite, it's because the North Koreans got starved into it.

There is a great deal of truth in this. China and South Korea both have been struggling with what to do with all the refugee's entering across their borders. I can't help but think back to Casto opening the doors of his prisons.

Interesting factoid that I will try and dig up the source. The biggest reason for the US's problem with North Korea wasn't actually with North Korea, it was with the possibility of unification as South Korea wanted, "the bomb" and its technology. The US thought that South Korea's desire for this coupled with their economic ability would destabilize the role that Japan plays in the region.

I'm somewhat confused here. It seems as though North Korea has agreed to abandoned it's nuclear facility development with US monitoring for compliance and now North and South has decided to have a relationship.

Whatever happened to that irksome cowboy diplomacy?

I mean, I just read this bit from the HillBilly's...

Quote:
If Hillary Clinton wins the US presidency, Bill Clinton will be given the job of repairing America's damaged international reputation, the former president tells the Guardian in an interview today.

Mr Clinton, 61, reveals that his wife has said she would ask him to "go out and immediately restore America's standing, go out and tell people America was open for business and cooperation again" after eight years marked by unilateralist policies that have "enrage[d] the world".
So, what's it gonna be? Is the US gonna do the sucking up (their way) or the cowboy way?

Hopefully we can get all of our military out of South Korea now and bring them home to defend our country!
