Bill Clinton Brings Home US Prisoners from North Korea

Built by http://www.normanasher.com/webdesign.html

After months of negotiating over the custody of two US prisoners sentenced for illegally crossing the North Korean border, it was Bill Clinton who met with leader Kim Jong Il and finally walked away with the two female journalists, returning them safely to US soil. It seems that although Bill Clinton is no longer President of the United States of America, he is still a driving force in international relations. It doesn't hurt his credibility either that Hillary Rodham Clinton is now the Secretary of State. We may be seeing old Bill Clinton involved in more than his share of public politics again after this one.

The two American female journalists were sentenced to 12 years of hard labor at a North Korean labor camp for charges of illegally entering North Korea from the Chinese border with "intent to commit hostile acts". The negotiations for their release have spanned over 4 months.

Kim Jong Il used North Korean mass media outlets to portray himself as "humanitarian" and "peace loving" after he released the journalists. Yeah Right! This guy is hell-bent on starting the next World War. My guess is that he really just wants the US off his back so he can return to shady nuclear projects aimed at stirring the world into its next frenzy. Anyone who can't see that one needs a seeing eye dog! Either way.......Thanks Bill Clinton! You've still got it!
