BANGKOK, Thailand - President Bush said Sunday for the first time that the United States, China and other nations may try to defuse a crisis with North Korea by offering Pyongyang written security assurances in exchange for a commitment to scrap its nuclear weapons program.

Bush rejected North Korea's demand for a formal no-invasion treaty, saying, "That's off the table." But he left the door open for a security pledge, agreed to by several countries, that would fall short of an actual treaty.
=======================================

I'm all for not invading NK. However we obviously cant trust Bush. But if the program was scrapped would he have another reason to invade? I havent heard about huge amounts of oil in NK.

They wont accept it and even if they do, it only buys them them time to get an attack ready.

North Korea isnt some socialist paradise, people are dying of starvation and malnutrition by the thousands every month, they are in a dire situation and the time of reckoning will come soon.

But if the program was scrapped would he have another reason to invade? I havent heard about huge amounts of oil in NK.

Instead of feeding its citizens, NK has been working on advanced military technologies for a long long time. Most notably scalar tech-- my guess is that if the United States had any interest in NK's infrastructure, it would be in the technology sector.

ha ha ha NK having advanced tech is funny, I never heard of anything like that before. Most of their equipment are obsolete dating as far back as the 1950's. The only way I could see them developing advanced technologies is if they received outside help, south korean companies maybe? That wouldn't be so far fetched, they have a lot of scandals and corruption tied into n.korea.

What is scalar tech anyway?

#2 A device that yields an output equal to the input multiplied by a constant, as in a linear amplifier.

That sounds like the best def. The others are related to measurements or PERL code strings.
