Didn't say what? You are getting caught up in the details because you want to ignore what happened.
Answer me this:
1) Did the North Koreans honor any part of the Clinton treaty?
2) Did we honor most of our end without confirming that they were honoring their?
3) Did we give them five years of not having inspectors so we couldn't verify if they were honoring their end of the treaty?
4) The Clinton administration continued to honor our end of the treaty even though the North Koreans were breaking it and it wasn't until the Bush administration that we cut things off.
5) The resources we sent to the North Koreans were used to help in their nuclear production. The degree to which our resources helped their program is debatable, but there is no doubt that the resources assisted North Korea at a time when they were focusing most of their resources on building a nuclear bomb?
One through four a true. No question about it. Number five is most likely true but even it is not, Clinton, Albright and Richardson screwed up big time.
