@Steveo,,,
Care to explain the INNOCENTS left
after the NUKE MISSLEs leave North Korea,
or the innocents receiving the North Korean Missles?
Which innocents do you want to protect?
The Innocents that are firing the Nukes,,, or the Innocents where the Nukes Land????
If the North Koreans were allowed to
Farm their Land,
have Ownership Rights,,,
have the right to
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness,,,
THEN THEY MAY FIT IN to the rest of the WORLD!
Otherwise, they have to fight each other like they did in Europe and Asia in the OLD CENTURY,,,
Just sain', the Europeans and Asians used to fight a lot! (WINK)
and the Jap-en-ese
may want to n-u-ke the others!
We just have to sit by and support our Pacific Ally (and our Middle Eastern Ally)
More than happy to answer your question as to what I mean by the innocents in NK. You just eluded to it. The farmer, who just wants to feed his family, the prisioner, who dared challenge the "deity" of Kim by his faith in Christ. I am not talking about the political/military elites! I am talking about those who are prisioners in their own country, Those that normally are the first to die!
I guess my point is it is so easy "Go git 'em" from the safety of Colorado. I 'm betting those in Seoul and in Toyko may see this in different light!
Obama should keep out of thing !
Best president in YEARS on foreign policy. Truly successful defeating terrorism, not just talk. He deserves my vote.
Yes, I think he underrates himself on the job he has done on foreign policy...considering the last administration totally sucked at foreign policy.
Obama called, oh the world can rest easy , the Obama admin is on it, .....lol
Why didn't he call Kim Jong-Hu? I thought he won a Nobel Prize for his philosophy of reaching out in diplomacy to our enemies. I'm sure Kim Jong-Hu is just another mis-understood 20-something who would be joining the OWS protests if he could get a passport or visa in to the US.
By the way, can a Nobel be recalled?
It is Kim Jong-un.
thanks for the correction Jean. I didn't have dear leader 2's name in front of me–but it was close enough.
