The Let's Attack North Korea Crowd

The rhetoric since North Korea's apparent test of nuclear weapons last week is bad and getting worse. North Korea called the U.S.-pushed U.N. sanctions "a declaration of war" and today have said they are willing to deliver "merciless blows" (according to CNN).

However, we don't have to look any further than the Bush Administration for culpability. Both Bush and U.N. bully ...er, Ambassador John Bolton were both very quick to refuse to rule out military action.
