Hmmmm no reponse to the other reoplies. I guess this topic is too set in concrete for either of us to make concessions. Cheers Doug

But I don't think you are asking for that....jsut that the reports are credible. I think they are and I think the links provided support this.

Some sobering words from characters like John McCain) I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.

We all knew Nth Korea was run by a f**wit (Kim Il Sung) who had done bizzare things like blast the USS Pueblo, & bomb airliners, sent killer squads to wipe out Korean pres (got within yards), dig tunnels under DMZ (at least 3), & kidnap Japs etc: etc: I used to visit Korea during this era & I can tell you it was worse than any security you have ever* experinced. Your reports aren't what I call public awareness of a major confrontation with Korea. Cheers Doug (but I do appreciate the trouble you went to)

I have done this I'm inclined to think. The links back up the assertion. Period. They back it up VERY well. Now I have to prove: "PUBLIC AWARENESS of a major confrontation with Korea". Sweet huh? Let me guess.....next comes proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Then.......... clear and compelling evidence. -Mike I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do.
