Well-
Bush can't get too aggressive with North Korea because they could lob one of those babies right in on Seoul. Their government is under tremendous pressure as a result of drought problems and it's people are hungry, plus they don't actually enjoy a whole lot of freedom. the current delivery system has a range of about a hundred miles...but they aren't far from the 500 mile launch system, which would threaten Japan.
So Bush has kinda got his nuts in a wringer on that one....the reactor they fired up is a graphic based reactor...and is good for created enriched uranmiun or plutonium.
On the other hand, you could argue that North Korea gives credence to stomping Iraq in the ground before they get those types of weapons and start threatening everyone. Neither country is exactly a bastion of freedom or run by guys who are rational thinkers.
Makes me glad I am a webmaster and not a president, he can't stay out of trouble on these issues.
