North Korea: Uncle Sam is a Pirate
Without the UN as the usual fig leaf, US sanctions against North Korea have 'secretly' been in place since July 2003, when the US made a very 'underreported' deal with Japan, Australia and nine European countries to intercept North Korean ships: under Part VII of the 1982 'UN Convention on the Law of the Sea' this is piracy.

FPF - October 11th - 2006 - Those who can stand it read the New York Times, which this morning among the front page war propaganda has Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, 'warning of harsh sanctions'. The United States did not intend to invade or attack North Korea, Rice said, but she warned the North's leaders that they now risked sanctions "unlike anything that they have faced before."
That bellicose comment, by the way, even came before another quake early this morning set off all military and political alarm bells in the Pentagon, NATO headquarters and among Washington's 'crazies' managing the US war machine. Until Japanese and US seismologists very fast declared that it wasn't another nuke test by North Korea, but nature moving off the coast of Japan at Honshu: an earthquake! - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/p5ts8
SHAKEN, BUT NOT EMOTIONALLY STIRRED...
Shaken, but not emotionally stirred, the White Haus professional myth makers - called 'spokesmen' - US Führer George W. Bush, Condoleezza Rice and all the other 'smoke and mirror' collaborators in their media: they all cover up the fact that in Madrid in July 2003, the US bribed, bullied and got aboard voluntarily Navy collaborators from eleven different nations to start a blockade of the North Koreans.
There was a small item on that act of global power play and aggression on July 23, 2003, in a 'USA Today' report. It confirmed that ''the United States had reached an agreement with Japan, Australia, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, and Spain to intercept North Korean ships suspected of carrying narcotics or weapons materials.'' Some exercises and naval operations were give names like Pacific Protector, Sanso, Sea Saber, Clever Sentinel, Team Samurai, etc. which Bush probably never heard about. Nor have the tax payers in all those countries heard anything about the immense and permanent costs to all who are forced to pay taxes even for the war crimes committed by the US/Israeli war machine and the criminal collaborators in their own countries.
Bush as the 'front man' just tries to read the text from paper and/or prompter; words which he mostly also gets via his earpiece to make sure he gets all syllables and body language instructions. So here Bush is, reading aloud like he was asked to do on May 31st 2003, when he in a speech announced ''the establishment of the 'Proliferation Security Initiative' which would result in the creation of international agreements and partnerships that would allow the US and its allies to search planes and ships carrying suspect cargo and seize illegal weapons or missile technologies.''
SUSPECTED OF CARRYING CHEMICALS ASSOCIATED WITH ROCKET FUEL
Starting the sanctions, on August 08, 2003, the North Korean cargo vessel 'Be Gaehung' was detained at Kaohsiung Harbor in Taiwan after US intelligence notified the - mostly by the US managers 'run' - Taiwanese 'government' - that the vessel was 'suspected of carrying chemicals associated with rocket fuel', according to the Christian Science Monitor on August 12, 2003. On August 18, 2003, stories in the New York Times and in the International Herald Tribune (same PNAC company) indicating multinational naval exercises in the area, focussing on ''the interdiction of WMD and related materials.'' The sanctions were in place.
THE ENEMY OF MY ENEMY IS MY FRIEND
But the now suggested and debated 'UN sanctions' against North Korea - which the US says 'has to be punished' - look different outside the US/UN propaganda bubble. It shows that among many people 'enduring US freedom' in the US managed colonies in East and West, not only in the Arab world - it is thought a positive matter that North Korea has dared to rock the US/Israeli dominated nuclear boat. That it is a damn good thing that North Korea has served the US hegemonists a cookie of their own nuclear dough. Even if sometimes the motto is: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Of course: the more people in the US colonies are brainwashed, the less they'll be able to understand this.
But in many of the 190 countries surrounding the US 'empire', the PNAC's Colossus on clay feet, people understand perfectly well what Kim Myong Chol said, who is described as the 'unofficial spokesman' of Kim Jong-il and North Korea: "US hostility, threats and sanctions are the very engines that have propelled the development of nuclear weapons. Absent US hostility, nuclear blackmailing, sanctions, threats of isolation and regime change, the Kim administration would never have thought at all of acquiring nuclear deterrence." - Another US policy 'blow back'...
The lesson which the US media is trying to cover up is simple: North Korea has shown that it may save a country from being attacked, destroyed and plundered by the US war machine, if it via nuclear tests lets them know that US Defense minister Robert McNamara was right forty years ago, when he started taking about MAD, Mutually Assured Destruction. North Korea has returned a clear US declaration of war: ''Attack me and I'll repay with the same nuclear coins.'' Of course McNamara's MAD doctrine was, and is insane, as the abbreviation indicates, but in it's inhuman quest for hegemony, meaning power and profit, the US junta with it's war machine has too many states cornered which will try 'to go nuclear' - and defend themselves by any means. Including nuclear bombs and/or MAD.
Nevertheless: in it's state of denial 'Uncle Sam' and it's mercenaries go on pirating for the PNAC, on sea, land and in space. Roaming and scavenging for energy and other resources, without any legality anymore, never caring about laws nor conventions, indiscriminately seizing, plundering and destroying anything the US war machine wants, whether from friend or foe. The naval sanctions concerning North Korea are sheer piracy, because under Part VII of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea: "Ships owned or operated by a State and used only on government non-commercial service shall, on the high seas, have complete immunity from the jurisdiction of any State other than the flag State." But apparently the US junta wrongly thinks their 'Reich' is the world's 'Flag State'...
North Korea doesn't mind too much: it can get by land all it needs, like oil from China, it's most important ally. Which via it's representatives at the United Nations said that ''the punishments might not necessarily be the harsh ones that Washington was proposing.''
It's understood the Washington war machine now via the UN is trying to scare North Korea and others with a - of course by the US drafted - resolution under Chapter VII of the U.N. Charter, making sanctions mandatory and offering the possibility of military enforcement as a last resort. US piracy sanctions from 2003 now should be 'justified' through a UN resolution, even it the sanctions didn't work at all, and should again - according to the United States - ''include international inspections of all cargo moving in and out of North Korea to detect weapons-related material''. Well, not only didn't it work for the past years which the nuke test proves, but the US drafted sanctions may also prove negative for China and Russia who will not accept: their trade via coastlines and borders would be affected by such an operation.
THE US IS LOST
In this context it is important to remember that already in the '60s and '70s the United States - via it's United Nations lobby - fabricated the 'Law of the Sea' and organized and led a series of conferences. LOST, as the 'Law Of the Sea Treaty' was named, had been hatched by a group of neocons who for the 'Project for a New American Century' wanted to ensure the United States control of initially seven-tenths (70%) of the earth's surface area. An 'International Seabed Authority' under US supervision should make the rules for, and control the vast oceans and everything that might be profitable on and in the seabed, like oil, gas or resources like 'pellets', as well as everything that travels above or below their surfaces. Again abusing the United Nation's 'authority' as a fig leaf for US profit hegemony, and their multinationals are still at it.
And, trying to calm the mob, 'His Master's Voice' Tony Snow, the White House parrot, like many spinning mainstream rags questioned 'whether the nuclear test had indeed been a big deal event' - in denial of the panic in the Pentagon and the United Nations. And, treating the North Koreans as some future 'friendly natives', in an interview on war propaganda channel CNN 'Black Plague' Rice stressed that "the diplomatic path is open" for the North, and that giving up its nuclear program would "lead to all kinds of benefits for North Korea."
The United States and it's junta's war machine is not only the permanent source of global growing resistance against them, which they call 'terror', and Bob Woodward says now are in between 700 and a thousand every day in Iraq alone, but the US again has succeeded in further proliferation of nuclear weapons. Just another stupid blow bakc, or what's the plan, if there is any? Blame the next false flag operation by the PNACIA's special forces on them...?
In the 190 countries surrounding the US the survival lesson is learned:
Speak with small words, but carry a nuclear stick.
