Statement on North Korean Nuclear Test|21Oct06|Socialist Worker: "The nuclear test is the culmination of five years of the US administration's policy towards North Korea."

(It's not just the SWP. Here's someone else who thinks the same thing: Bill Weinberg says "Bush's intransigence essentially prompted North Korea to cross the nuclear threshold".)
