■"N. Korea has little to lose in nuclear talks, analysts say," by Barbara Slavin, USA Today, 25 July 2005, p. 9A.
News flash! North Korea is probably risking little in re-engaging the Core's regional great powers in negotiations regarding its persistent pursuit of the bomb.
Why? Because Kim Jong Il never keeps his promises and only uses negotiations to wear out those attention-deficit disorderly Americans.
American-led sanctions do nothing, except probably harm the average person in North Korea, who, thanks to all those years of deprivation under the Great Leader and his idiot son, is somewhere on the order of 8 inches shorter and probably about 50 IQ points lighter than your average South Korean.
So bring on the diplomats please! We've achieved so much using them in the past.
