| Link of the Week The editors of The New Republic have kind words for President Bush�s speech, and hope he is serious about going after North Korea, Iran, and Iraq. On the Terrorist War and PRC Ally North Korea Martin Sieff (in the Washington Times), Charles Krauthammer (Washington Post), Richard Cohen (Washington Post), and William Kristol (Weekly Standard) weigh in. All praise the policy, although Cohen is less than happy with the speech. On Taiwan CNN�s Willy Wo-Lap Lam examines the latest �softening� from the Communists on Taiwan�s Democratic Progressive Party, and finds the actual policy change is minimal at best. (Piece 1, Piece 2) On Foreign Policy Jim Hoagland, in the Washington Post, examines the aftermath of the bugging of Communist President Jiang Zemin�s plane. The editors of the Los Angeles Times also weigh in on the subject, plus the small matter of how the Communists paid $30 million for a refit that only saw the companies involved receive $10 million.
