Wrong Again
The NY Times in their lead editorial today hailed yesterday’s agreement with North Korea as a victory for diplomacy and a fork in the eye of John Bolton, who had said some unkind words for the North Korean regime.
Well less than 24 hours later, North Korea has already backed out of deal, claiming that they won’t abandon their pursuit of nuclear weapons unless the US builds then a light-water nuclear reactor.
Funny thing is, the reactor isn’t mentioned anywhere the agreement. Maybe diplomacy isn’t that useful when dealing with a crazed, paranoid regime.
It’s funny when the editors of the Times are proved wrong so quickly.
