Can you post a link to the article? I'd like to see what it actually was that they destroyed. If it was their one nuclear development facility, then it could have a postive affect on things. If it was merely a symbolic destruction, with no material affect on their capabilities, then it won't, in my opinion.

I just read about it on CNN's website. The article said it had already been pretty well dismantled inside. Are there any other nuclear plants in NK?

So...Bush takes them of the embargo list. The Dear Leader gets to add to his DVD collection, while his people starve to death.

WHAT ABOUT FOOKING CUBA???????

They have no nukes! They have great baseball teams, beautiful beaches, gorgeous women, wonderful music (BV Social Club! Pablo Milanese! Yeah!), great cigars. wonderful people.

AND THEY"RE STILL EMBARGOED? After almost 50 years.

What the Fook????

Certainly not history, basically we have been here before.

What else can we do but play along? We are too weak mentally for any wars.

I wonder if this means we will have a small mushroom cloud over the skies of the US soon.. NK might have just taken steps to (attempt to) insulate itself as the 3rd party who sold the ability to manufacture.. Just a thought

Your quote proves they are better off with the embargo.

Imagine that town being the next Miami/Las Vegas..

Lets promise to leave them alone, they are doing pretty good on their own

Welcome To North Korea

This is a 54 minute long documentary on North Korea. It's incredibly interesting and I recommend everyone watch it at some point. It's amazing just how pathetic the government of North Korea really is.

(sorry if it's a repost)
