Oct. 21 — After almost four months of difficult negotiations, the United States and North Korea signed an agreement today to end their dispute over North Korea’s nuclear program
After the signing today, North Korea’s chief negotiator, Kang Sok Ju, described it as “a very important milestone document of historic significance” that would resolve his country’s nuclear dispute with the United States “once and for all.”
He said the agreement, once put into effect, would resolve “all questions of the so-called nuclear weapons development by North Korea” that have raised “such unfounded concerns and suspicions.”
“We have neither the intention nor the plan to develop nuclear weapons,” Mr. Kang said.
At a news conference in Washington, President Clinton said the treaty was “a good deal for the United States.”
“The United States and international inspectors will carefully monitor North Korea to make sure it keeps its commitments,” he said. “Only as it does so will North Korea fully join the community of nations.”

You really can’t make this stuff up. The US is run by complete morons.
Indeed.
Government of the morons, by the morons, for the morons.

“President Obama is inviting supporters to join him on a conference call Monday. In an e-mail to members of Organizing For Action, Obama wrote that “I have just over three years left as president — and there’s a lot left on my to-do list.”
(Surely there can’t be that big a to-do list of things left to fuck up??)
North Korea’s nuclear weapons perhaps came from the Japanese facility at Konan, Korea that USSR troops captured at the end of WWII.
History is all about great men that brought death and misery to the people. The world would be a better place without them. Of course they always did it for the children.
