Let’s look at two scenarios, played out by two Presidents:

1. War in Iraq insures Saddam Hussein, a ruthless, murdering dictator guilty of invading neighbor countries, using WMDs and hating America, will never get a chance to build and use a nuke.

2. A framework agreement with North Korea asking for the promise not to build nukes from a ruthless, murdering dictator gets us this:

BEIJING - North Korea has threatened to test a nuclear weapon unless Washington accepts Pyongyang’s conditions for a freeze of its nuclear weapons program, a senior U.S. official said.

North Korea said it wants hefty energy aid in exchange for the freeze, calling on the United States to make a “responsible, bold decision.” The demands came at six-nation talks Friday. source

The very kind of blackmail we didn’t want to see.

Any questions?
