Kim Jong Il Unplugged, Part 9
The Treasury Department is not through with Kim Jong Il. Undersecretary Stuart Levey has set his sights on two of North Korea’s last two lifelines, South Korea and now, Russia:
The United States is not yet satisfied with the results of sanctions aimed at changing North Korea despite the impact the sanctions have had, a senior Treasury official said Friday. The U.S. will watch how the situation develops with Russia, which reportedly has become one of the very few havens for North Korea to hide illicit funds, Undersecretary Stuart Levey said.
The U.S. sanctions on Pyongyang have been “more powerful than many thought possible,” he said. “I think our sanctions have had real impact, but the real goal, I think, is to see a real change in North Korea,” he said at the American Enterprise Institute.
Why, what a fascinating — and encouraging — choice of words at that forum.
Just a little suggestion:
Posts like this one force a click from the homepage to read the ‘whole’ post even in situations, like this post, where only a single line has been excluded from the homepage.
I regularly read your site from a part of the world where the internet is not so friendly or fast. It’s a bummer to find a small note instead of the interesting analysis I’ve come to enjoy reading on your website.
Thanks for the great writing!
Good point.
Something you may want to consider is reading blogs via feeds. Ours are;
http://www.korealiberator.org/feed/rss2
http://www.korealiberator.org/feed/atom
http://www.korealiberator.org/?feed=comments-rss2
Some online feed readers are;
http://www.bloglines.com/
http://www.google.com/reader/
http://feeds.reddit.com/
In most cases that would give you text only and save time loading a lot of pages.
I’ll 2nd the previous comment – I’d prefer to have more of the post on the main page. I’ll second that I like your analysis as well.
