This Is What North Korea Calls an Act of War?

October 17, 2006




BEGIN TRANSCRIPT



RUSH: So the North Koreans said today that these really, really stiff UN sanctions aimed at punishing North Korea for its nuclear test are a declaration of war. They're not admitting this, but signs are they're readying a second test. We've had sanctions on the North Koreans since the fifties, folks. Let me just say, as sanctions go, the ones imposed on North Korea by the Security Council last Saturday, I mean these are tough sanctions, folks, listen to this -- and it wasn't even close, by the way. It was unanimous, a 15-to-nothing vote. Everybody got on board, the ChiComs, the Russians. It was diplomacy in action.

This is tough stuff! From this day forward, the sale or transfer of materials that the North Koreans could use to build a nuke are not allowed. From this day forward, materials that the North Koreans could use to build biological or chemical weapons or ballistic missiles are not allowed. The resolution says so. From this day forward, North Koreans associated with weapons programs will not be allowed to travel internationally, and their overseas assets will be frozen, and the cherry on top of all this is that cargo going in and out of North Korea is going to be inspected. This is tough stuff. I mean, with our port security, maybe they could inspect our cargo, too?

At any rate, with sanctions like this, who would want to live? If I were Kim Jong Il, man, it would be suicide. "How am I going to get my Courvoisier?" he must be asking himself, or how's he going to get his XXX porn-rated videos? So, North Korea, the axis of evil's third leg has been neutered. The UN did this with one resolution. North Korea isn't now just a starving isolated rogue nation. I mean, now they are really, really isolated. The diplomats at the UN have really punished them, so much so that they are considering this a declaration of war. Now, how did we get these tough sanctions, folks? What changed?

How did we get the ChiComs and the Russians on board here? Well, there was just a teensy-weensy little clause added. That clause forbids the threat of military action to enforce the sanctions. So if the North Koreas break them, they're going to get another letter. We are going to paper these people into submission like you can't believe. If they want to ignore these super-tough UN sanctions, or if they want to tell the world to kiss their rear end, then they're going to get a letter, and the letter may be in all caps, just to show how angry the UN is. In fact, they might even get more resolutions in addition to more letters. I think Kim Jong ll finally got what's coming to him. He got sanctions and diplomacy. This stuff is just fabulous, and for all of this, Kim Jong ll considers this all to have been a declaration of war.
