Foreign Correspondence

An example of just how far the speculation goes: Some wonder whether it was possible that the three-to-four-kilometer-wide non-nuclear mushroom cloud, the first clue of the explosion last Thursday, was actually the result of a precision attack by either China or the US on these suspect sites, a prelude to the upcoming but still not scheduled six-party talks. The negotiations are aimed at persuading North Korea to dismantle its nuclear program in return for security guarantees, alternative energy supplies and massive economic assistance.

If the mushroom cloud was indeed a product of Washington this might explain why China has reportedly moved over 30,000 troops near N Korean border and why the United States and South Korea plan to announce on Wednesday a three-year delay in plans to cut the number of U.S. troops stationed on the Cold War frontline to protect the U.S. ally against reclusive communist North Korea.

The troop delay in reality being in answer to China’s deployment.
