"Not Enough"

What do you think of this?

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The United States said Wednesday it would provide 50,000 tonnes of food aid to North Korea, but the World Food Program said it was not enough to meet the "desperate" need of the North Korean people.

U.S. Deputy State Department spokesman Adam Ereli said the pledge was made in response to a WFP appeal as a humanitarian gesture unrelated to efforts to restart stalled six-party talks aimed at ending North Korea's nuclear program.

"Our decisions are made on humanitarian considerations solely," he said, adding the amount was determined after a review of the need in North Korea, competing needs around the world and the ability of humanitarian organizations to monitor the assistance.

The World Food Program says "not enough". The Fly says "too much". One does not reward a terrorist state, the same terrorist state that sold uranium hexafluoride to Libya (and God knows who else), with humanitarian aid in an effort to bring them to the negotiation table. It failed miserably when former President Carter did it, and it shouldn't be repeated. When you reward illegal behavior, you get more illegal behavior. I absolutely sympathize with the North Korean people, but this is just a prolonged way of stabbing them in the back.
