North Korea Reinstates its “Missile Tests for Unbridled Attention” Program
Lest you think that Bush’s latest foreign policy blunders are reserved to Iraq, Kim Jong ll throws another hissy fit:
North Korea test-fired a volley of short-range missiles today amid growing frustration in Pyongyang with the tougher stance taken by South Korea since the start of a new conservative government last month. [...]
Coming a day after Pyongyang expelled South Korean officials from a joint industrial zone, the missile test has been interpreted by some analysts as an expression of anger.
I guess this means those six party talks the Bush Administration demanded, that we were told were working so well, aren’t quite performing as planned:
After a period of relative calm on the peninsular, there are signs of increasing frustration at the impasse of six-party nuclear disarmament talks.
The US and North Korea have been unable to agree on Pyongyang’s alleged uranium programme and transfer of nuclear technology to Syria.
In a statement carried by the North’s Korean Central News Agency, the government denied both allegations.
“The US side is playing a poor trick to brand (the North) as a criminal at any cost in order to save its face,” the statement said.
“Should the US delay the settlement of the nuclear issue, persistently trying to cook up fictions, it will seriously affect the disabling of nuclear facilities.”
So this week, first Iraq crumbles like the house of cards it was, and it appears that North Korea is doing its best imitation of that. Could somebody tell me where any Bush Administration diplomacy has worked?

You know, it almost sounds as though we need a leader who is willing to sit down and actually meet face to face with leaders like Kim Jong Il, yeah? Who could possibly fit that bill?

Urgent check out the above link to an April 11, 1008 Washington post article about Robert Egan called Kitchen Diplomacy.
What I don’t understand is how Egan’s Lawyer who is a active United States Army Jag officer in the New jersey national Guard, Mark Winkler from Franklin Lakes N.J., gets to keep close ties with this guy on a personal basis above and beyond attorney client relationship. Egan Brags in a September 2007 Vanity Fair article about how his lawyer keeps him on the right side of Trading with the Enemy. And Egan’s Lawyer for years has bragged to many people about how Egan may have passed uranium enrichments secretes between North Korea and other Diplomats from the Middle East that know Egan and Winkler and eat at Egan’s restaurant. It is astonishing how this Winkler Guy gets money from Egan for his role in aiding Egan by representing egans asylum seeking communist defectors Egan foots the bills pays legal fees for and supplying Egan with military access to vital information from fort Dix such as the location of nuclear facilities, troop movements and strength reports. This is far worse than what Radical human rights attorney Lynne Stewart did who were a civil rights attorney who claims she has been falsely accused of helping terrorists. She was convicted of aiding and passing unauthorized information to hand from her client (the blind sheikh) thru the media. Winkler’s actions are far worse and to add insult to injury, Winkler attacks any military officer that dares to question him about his conduct and files false harassment charges against anyone that gets close to stopping him. Winkler’s also taught his client to do the very same thing and his client has filed numerous false harassment charges against anyone that disagrees with his behavior as a preemptory attack on the person’s credibility. Egan has pursued false charges against the Hackensack police department over the years all with the help of Winkler. Winkler was interviewed in 2007 by the FBI and military intelligence officers on fort Dix about his behavior and failure to disclose his ties to the amateur diplomat on his security clearance applications which is a requirement for renewal every 7 years. Winkler has such close personal relationships with military lawyers on fort Dix namely his close female friend who is a new jersey Deputy Attorney, General Dianne DiGiamber Deal who is currently mobilized on military duty on ft did new jersey and runs the ft dix military legal department. Due to her influence the lawyers and officers on ft Dix NJ that they will do and say anything to protect Winkler and target anyone in the military on ft Dix who tries to stop him. Since they have aided and abetted his criminal activity by failing to report him over the years, you will not find one military lawyer on ft Dix that will give him up. Keep pressing the issue and you will find that there is a great deal of threat to our national security behind Egan’s actions. God bless your courage on this one and please be careful. Without full media attention backing you up you may find yourself in grave danger. Start small by notifying TV news reporters via email on fox and cnn networks about egans story then when that gets picked up notify them who egans lawyer is which is easily verifiable by contacting the Hackensack police department chief’s office, then keep on blogging and you will see that others will provide you with more leads
