- "GOOD MORNING PYONGYANG. On
January 25, Good Morning America co-
host Charles Gibson discussed the future of U.S.
troops in South Korea with two experts. One
declared that the reason North Korea "has
the posture they have is because they fear the
power of the American forces, particularly the
American nuclear forces, and the only way they
think that they can counter that is to build up a
very powerful offensive force of their own so
they'd make the cost of any move into North Korea
so great that we wouldn't do it."
When
Gibson pointed out that the mentally
"unstable" leaders of North Korea were
working on nuclear weapons, the expert shot back,
"Well what would you do if you faced
American nuclear weapons? Wouldn't you try to
develop your own nuclear weapons to counteract
them?" Finally, Gibson was told that
"there are hawks and doves in North
Korea...and the problem for the United States is
to do things that will strengthen the doves, not
the hawks."
So who was this expert? Richard Barnet of IPS?
Noam Chomsky? No, it was Selig Harrison, a Senior
Associate of the Carnegie Endowment for
International Peace, who served The
Washington Post as a South Asia
correspondent (1962-65), an editorial writer
(1966-67), a North East Asia correspondent
(1968-72) and finally as national affairs
reporter (1972-74)." MediaWatch

- I don't think that they have made nuclear
weapons. They have accumulated some plutonium,
which they could use to make nuclear weapons if
they were to increase the amount, but they don't
want to. They want to trade that for acceptance
by the world, political and economic
normalization, and economic help that they
desperately need.
The only route
really is diplomacy. And it's beginning to work
because we're beginning to recognize that North
Korea is willing to bargain to end its nuclear
weapons program. Who's The Enemy
Now? Video Transcript
- Owen Lattimore and
Harrison both corresponded with Sheila Payne
wife of Robert Payne prolific author and
