This Washington Post editorial calls

This Washington Post editorial calls on the Bush Administration to “act aggressively in all theatres” in response to the “confluence of crises” the U.S. faces. The editorial laments the “failed” policies of Bill Clinton towards Iraq and North Korea, and gives President Bush credit for reversing them. However, it expresses concern that Bush is not acting decisively enough with respect to North Korea. The Post offers no concrete suggestions for dealing North Korea, and its second-guessing of President Bush in this matter seems premature. Nonetheless, it is encouraging to find this famously liberal newspaper expressing what is essentially the correct line with respect to the big picture on foreign policy.
