This clip should be viewed after reading the following quote explaining how Bush conducted personal high level diplomacy with Kim Jong Il to achieve the result described in this video. Here is the excerpt from, "A New Bush Tack on North Korea" (NYT, 12/07/07) By HELENE COOPER, WASHINGTON — "President Bush, directly engaging the man he publicly called a 'tyrant,' wrote a letter to North Korea's leader, Kim Jong-il, in which he held out the prospect of normalized relations with the United States if North Korea fully disclosed its nuclear programs and dismantled its nuclear reactor, administration officials said Thursday. The high-level personal missive from Mr. Bush to the leader of the country he placed in his 'axis of evil' in 2002 was sent as American negotiators struggle to get the secretive North Korean government to fully explain and disclose the extent, use and spread of its nuclear material and technology. At the same time, the United States is also urging other nations to maintain pressure on Iran in the wake of a new assessment that Tehran halted nuclear weapons work in 2003." "Mr. Bush addressed the letter 'Dear Mr. Chairman,' and urged the enigmatic North Korean leader to disclose all of his country's past and present nuclear work. "I want to emphasize that the declaration must be complete and accurate if we are to continue our progress," the letter said, according to a senior administration official. The letter closed, 'Sincerely, George W. Bush.' It was signed by hand, administration officials said. While administration officials described the letter as straightforward, its very existence underscores just how much the White House wants to ensure that one of the administration's scarce, tangible diplomatic accomplishments does not slip away." Contrary to the anti-diplomacy strategy that he promoted in order to attack Sen. Obama during his visit to Jerusalem May 15, 2008. The source of this clip is infolivetv from (5/15/08).
