North Korea is Not Our Only Problem

An old friend of mine, sent me an email the other day…

The email went like this,
"If I were in charge:

If Russia and China don’t want to be all in to help stop this little spoiled brat Kim, then I would tell them if he fires on us we launch all hell on him and you too.

This worked since the 50’s “Mutual Assured Destruction” That should get their attention.

Dangerous stuff."

 My response went like this:

 The world is a different place today, however, I believe that you still cannot negotiate with terrorists.

So, the President is correct in his tough talk publically about N Korea.  Let the diplomats handle the back room negotiations and, if necessary, let the Generals fight any military action.  In part, that is why N Korea is still a problem today, because the country was fed up with the war in Korea and wanted out in the 1950’s.  So, the politicians and  President Eisenhower, negotiated an “Armistice” which brought our troops home.  Technically, we are still at war with N Korea, under the terms of the Armistice!

N Korea has been nothing but a desolate harbor of fascist’s dictators, stealing from the people, keeping their country from economic prosperity and rattling sabers.  The United States should not be timid about this.  N Korea now has a hydrogen bomb and a vehicle to get it to our shores.  Not sure why we just don’t shoot down every missile emanating from there as soon as it hits international territory?  We have the capability and certainly have more money to spend on intercepts than they do to experiment on flexing their rocket muscles!  Certainly if they are allowed to continue to misbehave in the world, they are likely of becoming a “jackass” to the even their friends (China & Russia). 

We should not be surprised that China & Russia are unwilling to get in the middle of this, until at such time that active military action happens.  And certainly these “Communist” countries would side with N Korea, as it has always been their vision to rule in a world without the US.  As long as the politicians allow the US Military to fight, I have no doubt we would win such a war.  Although, it would not be a pretty picture, and for the first time we may well see active aggressive foreign military fighting on our soil.  A thought that should shake, to the very inner core of, most Americans!  Win, lose or draw, life will be different for everyone, if that were to happen. 

And this discussion is only about N Korea.  How about Iran?  Nobody is saying a thing about them.  Surely Iran is watching this very closely, as they are the next organized country who will likely take their new technology and use it at the detriment of the rest of the world.  There too, their so called “friends and associates” sympathetic to Iran, will ultimately be the target of their aggressions, if they are allowed to succeed, (as it appears they have been able to do, no thanks to the previous US Administration who for 8 years looked the other way, while pretending to negotiate on our behalf.  Only to find out that Obama was okay with Iran having nuclear weapons, as the administration believed it would help make the world a “safer place!”)  Iran is a problem, not just because of their thousands of years difference with Israel, but they are the likely ones who would allow ISIS to have such a weapon of mass destruction. 

The American people are becoming too soft.  Americans are demanding that the country enforce the “rule of law” based on emotion rather than on sound, rational reasons.  Few in this country stand on our principles anymore.  We no longer debate the great issues of the day, we must first annihilate our opponents.  Define the opposition before they define us.  Call them racists, place blame away from us, divide and concur, deny, deny and deny again.  Call it something it is not, for to say it enough times will make it so.  Tell the lie until it is “truth” or “fact” in the minds of everyone who hears it!  Someone says something we do not agree with, it is used as an excuse to shout them down, defame them, and / or burn and pillage our cities and institutions in the name of selflessness, because we just think those people are heartless and rude racists!  The ends justify with the means!

In spite of the fact that our government has allowed millions of people to illegally come across our borders to live; and some of the people (acting as if they are the majority) said, “We cannot, and should not send them away!   For, of course we think it is cold and heartless.”    So, where is the line in the sand?  How many do we allow?  What is our limit?  China has more children than the entire population of the US, should we allow them to send them all to America for a better way of life?  I think not, and our law makers in Washington DC has to come to grips with this very soon, or else expect an uprising of the people, as a majority of Americans believe it is time to protect our borders and enforce our immigration laws so we can know who is coming, and staying, in our country.  That’s right, I said, “Our Country!”  Those coming here need to assimilate to our ways and culture and language (English).  For without doing this we allow our enemy’s to infiltrate our country, destroy our economic greatness, diminish its value and standards, and in the end defeat us from within. 

So, our problem with N Korea (and Iran) may only be like an annoying flying gnat compared to the influx of people breaking the rules to come here for a handout and a better way of life only to find out the former Prime Minister of England Margaret Thatcher was correct, “The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people’s money!”

Wow, did you ever crank me up, or what?
