Disturbing
The entire North Korean situation is disturbing and a bit puzzling. &C has an interesting note that the Bush administration may be leaving the situation to the Japanese. I’ll give the administration that this is an especially tricky situation, but I’m deeply concerned if TNR is correct. This is a situation in which the US and Japan must work together and come up with a coherent strategy.
I find it hard to believe this was too shocking given we have assumed they were near or had nuclear capability. Isn’t there a strategy for this? If not, I’m deeply concerned about where this administration is going.
