Bush missile plan faces uncertain hurdles by 2004
President Bush orders a bare bone missile defense effort to be ready within two years, aiming to defend U S territory troops and allies from ballistic missiles. Democrats question the unproven technology and potential protection in coming years while some warn the plan violates common sense by deploying systems before testing. The 1972 ABM Treaty limited missile defense and expired after Bush announced withdrawal.

North Korea issue looms in South Korea vote
As South Korea heads to Thursday's presidential election the North Korean nuclear question dominates the campaign. Pro government Roh Moo-hyun pushes for a more equal US relationship while rival Lee Hoi-chang favors a tougher line. Public anger rises after US GIs involved in a traffic death case.
South Korea Moves Toward New Leader In Tight Presidential Race
In South Korea the main opposition leader Lee Hoi-chang and pro-government Roh Moo-hyun contest to succeed President Kim Dae-jung as he leaves office on Friday. Lee, born June 2, 1935, portrays a tougher stance on North Korea and favors U.S. alignment, while Roh, born August 6, 1946, shares economic views but differs on domestic policies like moving offices out of Seoul. The outcome hinges on voter age and perceptions of security, with North Korea’s nuclear programs a central campaign issue.
