lefty, thanks for the answer. What is the question? Did Obama score a victory? Or something else?

RKV, thanks for the clarification. I agree, because, at this moment, the situation is more dangerous than we realize.

Gordon, No, I don’t suggest we break faith with the South Koreans. I merely recommend we get civilian dependents out of the line of fire. Bad things can happen and can happen quickly. Let’s not let them be held hostage. Yes it makes a tour harder. Better that than some other scenarios.

Did Obama score a victory? If he did, nobody noticed because they’re all too busy sobbing over Michael Jackson.

marc Malone, you wrote: “That’s why Kim did it, to demonstrate that nothing would happen.” Something happened, but the pushback from Washington was not nearly strong enough.

stuart Williamson, whether or not we had something to do with the Kang Nam’s reversal, it is no victory. It’s just, for the meantime, avoiding defeat. Thanks for your comment.

Norman Yarvin, we need to stop and search to stop North Korean proliferation, even if we have to stop and search frequently. As a practical matter, we have no choice.
