Oct 18, 2006 North Korea has informed China that it is prepared to conduct "as many as three additional tests" following the first nuclear experiment Oct. 9, CNN television reported Wednesday.
Quoting U.S. intelligence analysts and officials, CNN and Fox News said U.S. spy satellites have detected activities which could be preparations for nuclear explosion tests at three North Korean sites. |

Bloomberg Oct. 18, 2006 Billionaire investor George Soros today blamed U.S. President George W. Bush for escalating tensions with North Korea, which last week tested a nuclear bomb for the first time.
Bush shouldn't have labeled North Korea part of an "axis of evil," Soros told a group of investors and academics in Seoul. The president "aggravated the problem'' by rejecting South Korea's so-called Sunshine Policy of engaging with the North, Soros said. |

Newsmax Former President Jimmy Carter said that an agreement he brokered 12 years ago for North Korea to halt nuclear weapons development is "in the wastebasket" since the Bush administration turned its back on the deal and labeled the isolated nation part of an "axis of evil."
But Carter, speaking at a previously scheduled panel discussion on his 1994 mediation, said he does not foresee the current dispute over North Korea's test of a nuclear bomb to lead to war. "I really think it's less likely now," Carter said, adding that in 1994 war "appeared to be imminent" if the Clinton administration had pushed sanctions against North Korea through the U.N. Security Council. Comment: Note that North Korea is alleged to have up to 10 nuclear weapons, yet Bush et al would have us believe that N Korea threatens our very lives. If possession of nukes is the yardstick as to a country's danger to the world, why is Israel, with its at least 200 and possibly 1500 nukes, not being taken to task as a much clearer threat to the world? Why is America, with possibly 10,000 nukes and a stated intention to use them, not being lambasted by the entire planet??

Thu Oct 19, 2006 WASHINGTON - President Bush said Wednesday the United States would stop North Korea from transferring nuclear weapons to
Iran or al-Qaida and that the communist regime would then face "a grave consequence." Bush refused to spell out how the United States would retaliate. "They'd be held to account," the president said in an ABC News interview. |

CBC News U.S. President George W. Bush said Wednesday that his country would stop North Korea from transferring nuclear weapons and technology, warning Pyongyang it would then face "a grave consequence."
The Communist state staged an underground nuclear test on Oct. 9 and has described international attempts to prevent more testing as "an act of war." Officials in Washington are worried that the North Korean government might share information or nuclear material with Iran or al-Qaeda. |
