I'm at the point now where I don't know what to say. Obviously we missed a big window by going after Iraq and Afghanistan instead of paying attention to North Korea, but that seems moot now. I'm at a loss when it comes to this.
We've tried to get them to stick to non-nuclear agreements but have been ignored. We obviously can't attack them, as we're tied up elsewhere (ugh). The sanctions don't stop them. Bribing them during the 90s clearly didn't work. I remember reading someone wants to give Japan and South Korea nuclear weapons... but that's just adding fuel to the fire. Positive reinforcement doesn't work. Negative reinforcement doesn't work. Kim Jong Il isn't going to stop.
I'm at a loss.
