Rolling Blunder

This article by Fred Kaplan explains in a long narrative exactly why the Bush administration in directly responsible for North Korea's potential nuclear weapons. The same ideology that led them to ignore Clarke's bin Laden warnings also led them to ignore the work that needed to be done to defuse North Korea's bomb-making capacity.

The Clinton administration was on the right track on both points. The Bush administration dropped the ball and should be held responsible for ignoring these real threats that have resulted in the foreign policy disaster we face today.
