The Daily Telegraph has an interesting little story on the timing of the N. Korean announcement that it had nuclear weapons. It seems now that the State Department might have been told this by the N. Koreans several weeks ago but failed to disclose it to other branches of the government. According to the story, State has defended itself by claiming that all the information was shared “appropriately”. Apparently, it wasn’t appropriate to share it with the Dept. of Defense.
I guess no one told State that Defense runs foreign policy now.
This supports my theory that this admin is going to experience a marked increase in infighting between various factions, a direct result of the fact that the guy at top doesn’t have the smarts to sort it all out.
