"For whom, it suddenly occurred to him to wonder, was he writing this diary? For the future? For the unborn? ... For the first time the magnitude of what he had undertaken came home to him. How could you communicate with the future? It was of its nature impossible. Either the future would resemble the present, in which case it would not listen to him, or it would be different from it, and his predicament would be meaningless." - Winston Smith, from George Orwell's 1984

Interestingly, many of the articles included in the timeline often mention or could mention North Korea within the same breath as Iran. Yet North Korea seems to get little attention from the current administration, other than to profess Kim Jong-Il to be an annoying little man.
Oh, but that's right, North Korea isn't sitting upon a sea of black liquid gold, is it?
Im guessing you meant this comment for the post below this one, "Build-up to Iran". But I agree with your analysis - I talk a little about this in "Wagering on War", especially the President's response to the question regarding the North Korean nuclear situation.
Nice to see you still reading my stuff.
