  Re: More on the DPRK
 
(...) "Nuke em all." was the phrase you used. Did you mean something else by the use of "nuke" than nuclear? Nuke is colloquial english for nuclear. Hope that helps. As for N Korea selling stuff, do your research. (22 years ago, 21-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) It's a UK paper, IIRC, it's just the French edition of it. Editorially controlled from the UK. So I wouldn't read too much into it. (22 years ago, 21-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Sorry, I should have included this before. It's from Larry's link. "Chirac Sets Strict Terms for Post-War U.N.

  Proof! (was Re: The Sun is not being very nice.)
 
For those demanding proof, dicover what the whole of the world knows already -- a simple truth <<<YOU>>> have failed to understand. This war is about oil. This is the money/oil trail. Follow it.

  The Sun is not being very nice.
 
According to the following Guardian story, anyway: (URL) if it's true? Wonder if The Sun will get fined...

  Re: Just Teasing, I Have No Intention of Debating Any of This...
 
(...) Hmm, the question of what to do if the locals don't want a a free state. It seems obvious to us that anyone (who won't have substantial power in the alternative state) should prefer a free state, but is that really true? If it isn't, what do (...)

  Re: More on the DPRK
 
For those joining the discussion late or for those (like me) who weren't immediately able to realize what "DPRK" stands for, it is NOT an abbreviation for Dorney Park. Dave! (22 years ago, 21-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) What I don't get about all this is how much we have failed to appreciate the 11 September 2001 attack and what it could do for us.
