The U.S. isn't playing this any better than Jong-Il has. Reminds me of a paragraph from the latest Maureen Dowd column I referenced earlier:
It’s clear, after all, that the North Koreans are acting immaturely in response to W. acting immaturely. They want attention because the Bush administration inexplicably refuses to talk to them. And they know, in the pre-emptive world ordained by nutty Dick Cheney, that the best way to protect themselves from the fate of Saddam Hussein is to actually go nuclear, rather than merely fantasizing and boasting about it.While I don't pay much attention to 60 Minutes' Andy Rooney, I notice that his topic last night was the hypocrisy of the U.S. telling other countries they couldn't have nuclear weapons considering we have the most anywhere
