North Korea remains out of the blacklist of countries supporting terrorism that was published last Thursday by the United States, in spite of the torpedoes hitting a South Korean boat. Washington maintained the same four countries on its list: Iran, Sudan, Syria and Cuba.
In spite of the calls sent since the shipwreck of the Cheonan in March for Washington to put Pyongyang back on the blacklist, North Korea has been spared this measure in the annual report of the State department on terrorism, that covers the year 2009. At the end of June, the American diplomacy had estimated that the torpedoes weren't an act of terrorism, but a provocative operation occurring between two armies. On the other hand, Iran remains the “principal state support of terrorism” because of the support it brings to the Hamas and Hezbollah, according to the report.

So for now, they really don't want to add it on the list. They don't feel they have enough reason/proof to put them on the list for now, apparently.

Date: 2010-08-06 04:27 am (UTC)So basically viet is my first language but my schooling was in french up until I graduated from HS. Then after I chose to study in english from CEGEP and on but I grew up on mainly english tv shows so I was already bilingual; skipped a grade in english when I was in HS (could skipped more, according to my english teachers).
You woulnd't happen to be Quebecoise too, would you?

(I'm so glad I'm entering university this fall. Everyone knows what university is. I won't have to explain from now on @_@)
(So, if this wasn't clear enough, YES, Quebec.)
I learned English by reading. (Fics, mainly.)
I never slipped any grade, but I always had 90%+ (After Secondaire 3, 95%+)
I was attending a French Cegep, but I was studying Languages, so many classes were in English. ^^

Date: 2010-08-06 06:03 am (UTC)LOL oh god, I slept in all my english classes in HS - and somehow I was always teacher's pet or favorite but no one hated me for that. They either felt bad for me and were just amused because it was obvious I didn't care about being the favorite - and was always in top3 despite always being in my own world. There were cases where I was better than my teachers. Unfortunately in my classes we didn't do enough actual grammar and that all that shmuck so all those verbs tenses and shit, I never formally learned it much - my friends were formally taught those in their classes though. D: But I guess that's what happens when you not only skip a grade but also go into the "classe d'anglais bilingue" of the grade above yours. I had one english teacher that was majorly cool though and he was always "whatever, I don't need to quiz you for your oral exam, I already know you're fluent" and my teammates would be all "HEY WHAT THE HELL SIIIIIR!?".
What HS/cegep were you in? And where are heading in univ?
no subject
Date: 2010-08-06 04:00 pm (UTC)Lol, yeah, I didn't pay much attention to English classes either. And I never really learned grammatical rules (I technically did, but I either forgot or wasn't listening to the teacher). I used the tense that seemed right and it USUALLY was right.
My instinct is good because of all the reading I did, I guess.
I just finished a DEC in Languages in the Cégep de Trois-Rivières, and I'm going to Université Laval this fall in English Studies (Études anglaises).^^
What about you? Were are you in your studies? (If you're not already done with them)

Lol same.
I left Vanier with a social sciences DEC (started out in health science though) before going into psych at Concordia. Decided to stop last year but I'm trying to get back into school at Universite de Montreal (education au pre-scolaire/primaire).

Date: 2010-08-06 03:25 am (UTC)But tbh, I've always thought that the phrase "acts of terrorism" usually implies that the aggressors are attacking an unarmed or civilian party in order to create fear. Even if the official definition of terrorism only encompasses any violent act made to usurp a government, if we included every single country that attacked/threatened another country on that list, every country would be on it by now. We're already doing military drills in their back yard and sanctioning them, not to mention we've publicly committed to backing up SK in this conflict. What exactly would putting them on this list achieve, other than creating drama back home as we debate endlessly over their eligibility to be on a list that most likely won't have much of an effect on the way we deal with NK, anyways?
And on a completely ot note, congratulations on your first post bb! :D Lookatchu, being all awesome translator-ey and shit. XD *sniffles* I'm so proud!
