김정일, 입술 탄다. 바짝 바짝!
1. 이번 6자회담에서 힐 차관보는 북한 편을 들던 중국-러시아-한국의 팔을 비틀어 미국 편으로 돌렸다. 갑자기 사면초가가 된 김정일, 이제는 우군이 없다. 오죽하면 현충원에 와서 고개를 숙이고, 남한 좌익들을 총 동원하여 “미국 몰아내고 민족끼리, 통일하자”며 '이제부터 죽어도 같이 죽자'는 굿판을 벌였겠는가? 8.15 쇼는 미국에 보여주기 위한 쇼였고, 노무현 정부가 앞장 선 정치 쇼였다.
2, 북한인권대사 레크포비츠가 임명되어 9월부터 활동을 개시한다. "북한은 반드시 핵을 포기하고 국제사회로 나와야 하며, 그러기 위해서는 입장료가 필요하다. 북한인권 문제는 그 입장료의 일부다. 미국은 북한 인권실태를 낱낱이 거론할 것이다.". 어제 힐이 한 말이다. 과거에 북한은, 미국이 인권을 가지고 압박하면 핵 회담을 결렬시킬 것이라며 자주 협박해왔지만, 막상 북한인권 대사를 지명하고 인권문제로 협박하고 있는 지금 아직은 아무런 반응이 없다. 미국은 조금도 물러서지 않고 북을 점점 더 압박한다.
3. 북한에는 강력한 우익정권이 설 것이며, 남한 좌익들의 운명도 눈에 훤히 보이기 시작한다.
4. 노무현의 말은 횡설수설, 말기의 네로 증상을 보이는데다 용어마저 난잡하여 국민은 매일 괴롭다. "내가 말 실수한다 해도 관심 좀 가져줘야" “경제, 네가 보나 내가 보나 뾰족한 수가 없는데 언론이 그냥 조저요, 죽겠어 정말“. 이처럼 민생은 이미 실종돼 있다. 아무 짝에도 소용 없고, 속만 상하게 하는 대통령이 왜 있어야 하나. 매년 1년씩 휴가를 가면 좋겠다. 이런 대한민국에서, 살아갈 길이 나무나 막막하다!

부시, 북한 인권대사 임명
부시는 2004년에 통과된 북한 인권법에 따라 레프코비츠(전 국내정책 고위 참모)를 북한인권 대사로 임명했다. 북한인권대사의 임명은 북한으로 하여금 북한 인권을 세계적 기준과 상식에 맞도록 게양따르도록 하는데 획기적으로 기여할 것이다.
북한은 과거에 주기적으로 미국이 인권문제로 북한을 압박하며 핵회담이 결렬될 것이라고 경고해왔다. 그런데 이번 부시의 인권대사에 지명에 대해 북한은 아직 반응이 없다.
이에 대해 힐대표가 이렇게 말했다. 북한은 앞으로 북한의 인권기록들이 면밀히 분석될 것이라는 점을 예상해야 하며, 북한의 이익은 핵을 포기하고 문호를 개방하는 데 있다는 결론을 내려야 한다.
북한은 국제사회로 진입하기 위해 가입비를 내야 하며, 그 가입비의 일부가 인권기록이다.
레코비츠는 9월부터 UN 등을 대상으로 임무를 수행할 것이다.
북한이 미국과의 외교관계를 개선하려면 먼저 인권을 개선해야 한다.
Bush appoints human rights envoy
From correspondents in Crawford
August 20, 2005
US President George W. Bush has appointed a former senior domestic policy aide, Jay Lefkowitz, as special envoy to promote human rights in North Korea, the White House announced yesterday.
"His appointment will greatly enhance our efforts to encourage North Korea to accept and abide by internationally accepted human rights standards and norms," Bush spokeswoman Dana Perino said.
The decision, required under a US law passed in 2004, came about 10 days before the next round of six-nation talks on North Korea's nuclear weapons programs. The negotiations are due to resume during the week of August 29.
There was no immediate reaction from Pygongyang, which has regularly warned in the past that stepping up pressure on the human rights front may hurt prospects for progress in the talks, which also group China, Japan, Russia, South Korea and the United States.
But Christopher Hill, Washington's North Korea analyst, said on Wednesday that Pyongyang should expect increased scrutiny of its human rights record, should it conclude its best interests lie in making a deal to end its nuclear programs and open up to the world.
"If the DPRK wants to enter the international arena and wants to be a participant, it's got to begin to consider the cost of admission, and part of the cost is that your human rights record will be looked at," he said.
Lefkowitz was to take up his duties in September, meeting with other US officials to draft a plan of action before he travels to the region to meet with US partners in the six-party talks and visits with European and UN officials.
Lefkowitz has served as deputy assistant to the president for domestic policy, playing a central role in Bush's decision in August 2001 to curtail government-funded embryonic stem-cell research.
He has also been a member of the US delegation to the United Nations Human Rights Commission in Geneva and the US delegation to the International Conference on Anti-Semitism sponsored by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
"Mr. Lefkowitz will increase awareness and promote efforts to improve the human rights of the long-suffering North Korean people," Perino said as Bush spent five weeks on his Texas ranch.

Bush names Lefkowitz as envoy on human rights in N. Korea
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 KYODO
U.S. President George W. Bush announced Friday the appointment of Jay Lefkowitz as special envoy on human rights in North Korea.
The appointment comes at a sensitive time in relations between the two countries as six-party talks meant to convince North Korea to abandon its nuclear programs are on hold and set to resume the week of Aug. 29.
''Mr. Lefkowitz will increase awareness and promote efforts to improve the human rights of the long-suffering North Korean people,'' the White House said in a statement.
A senior administration official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Lefkowitz will also work with Japan on seeking a resolution of the abduction issues involving Japanese and South Korean citizens.
While the recessed fourth round of the six-party talks between the United States, Russia, China, South Korea, Japan and North Korea is focused on removing nuclear weapons, an aspect of the U.S. proposal tabled during the last round in June last year, and echoed recently by top U.S. negotiator Christopher Hill, calls for North Korean human rights reforms before bilateral relations can be fully normalized.
Despite the timing, the Bush administration does not feel the announcement will hurt the current six-party negotiations.
''We hope it would affect things in a positive way if North Korea were positive about the development of human rights,'' the senior official said. ''That might be helpful across the board in all areas of our relationship with them.''
''It would be a miscalculation on the part of North Korea or anybody else to think it was somehow aimed at influencing those talks,'' the official said.
Lefkowitz, former White House domestic policy deputy adviser, will be responsible for monitoring and pressing for improvements in North Korea's human rights situation and freedom of religion and speech.
The administration was required to establish the post under the North Korean Human Rights Act passed in 2004. The law bans assistance aside from humanitarian aid to North Korea unless ''substantial progress'' is made toward basic human rights in North Korea.
Prior to his posting as deputy adviser in 2002, Lefkowitz served as general counsel to the Office of Management and Budget and U.S. representative to the U.N. Human Rights Commission.
Lefkowitz currently works as a lawyer in Washington.
