Stung by reports that North Korea has failed to abandon
its nuclear weapons program as part of a 1994 deal negotiated by his
administration, ex-President Bill Clinton revealed last week that he threatened
the rogue nation with war in order to get them to comply.
[Full
story]
When it came to foreign policy ex-President Clinton had no
vision but he is trying to repair that damage through revision. Last we heard
all about how active he was on taking care of Bin Laden and al-Qaida and now it
is about him threatening North Korea with war. Of course Clinton hardly ever
mentioned Bin Laden in a press conference or ever talked tough about North
Korea. We can see the results of his commitments, a previously growing al-Qaida
and North Korea continuing to develop nuclear weapons. He really scared North
Korea into compliance by delivering millions of dollars in aid and building a
nuclear power plant. The first line of the story “Stung by reports” is a total
lie, our intelligence already knew that North Korea was still developing nuclear
weapons; he was only stung by the media actually reporting the
story.
“I don’t believe North Korea wants to drop a
bomb on us,” he said “I don’t even think they want to sell the bomb to somebody
else. I think they’re screaming for the world to say they still matter and to
pay a lot of attention to them.”
This is unbelievable, pop
psychology applied to a rogue nation. If only we would have given more attention
to the needs of North Korea and preventing bullies from provoking them in their
formative years. We need to develop their self esteem so that their needs are
fulfilled so that they wont cry out for attention. What a bunch of
pabulum.
