George W. Bush Gives in to Axis of Evil

Or at least the one member of the axis: It appears that the U.S. dropping North Korea from terror list, as it had to promised to do in negotiations, and the DPRK is resuming dismantling its nuclear program.

The Japanese are pissed off about this, what with the whole bizarre, "Kidnapping Japanese citizens," thing still unresolved, but pretty much everyone else is happy about this development.

It appears that South Korea will be sending a delayed shipment of steel to the DPRK, and we now have reports that the IAEA has had its access restored.
