OR for giving Dubya another reason to go shooting! Partly the reason why the world is now a little bit more unstable now.  |

I'm no apologist for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. But it strikes me as a tad hypocritcal of Dubya to lay into North Korea for nuclear testing when the USA is still armed to the teeth with conventional and nuclear hardware.

Bush is not being hypocritical because the USA is not engaging in nuclear proliferation. That is what North Korea is getting kicked in the nuts about.

Maybe so, but it's for the UN (which speaks for the international community) to do the nut-kicking, not the USA (which speaks only for itself).

Incidentally it turned out the nuclear test was rather tinpot in size and strength, if not political problems.
A rather sheepish Pyongyang talking about a smaller than expected blast in todays papers.

Could there be a more useless and pathetic bunch of prevaricating, wavering idiots than the UN? UN: Hey North Korea, stop building nukes. NK: No, what you gonna do about it? UN: We'll draft a resolution, then we might send a few people in blue helmets to stand around watching you do whatever you want. Srebrenica, Rwanda, Kosovo.......the list of the UN's shame is endless. |

Ah, but like the Conference, the UN is its members, so it is up to its members to do the nut-kicking. ;D Incidentally it turned out the nuclear test was rather tinpot in size and strength... I think it'd be fair to say that I've dropped farts that registered more on the Richter Scale! (They probably produced more radioactive fallout too...) |

Sorry to spoil the comedy, but John Moules does not make Conference decisions - he is just the spokesperson. Decisions are made by member clubs (including tinpot ones with less than 30 years of history  ) and their elected representatives. |

Jase...you ruined the comedy! ;D
I have issues with Moules. But that's another story.
