SEOUL, South Korea – The rocket launched by nuclear-armed North Korea Kim Jong Il to make demands from an international community worried that it indicates the capacity to fire a long-range missile.
Well, well, well…look what we have here. Seems no matter how many times the Democrats want to blame Bush and the Republicans for everyone hating us, it seems that once again, one of our enemies is showing that it does not matter who is in the White House or which political party is in control, the only thing they are interested in is our destruction, and their continual display of the methods they will use to obtain that goal.
Using the technology given to them by the oh so trusting Democrats under the Clinton Administration, Kim Jong Il, after a couple of weeks of threatening to launch an alleged “communications satellite” into orbit, and nuclear testing and more rocket launching, and after the Obama Administrations empty words and rhettoric, Kim decided to show the world that he not only knows that America, under a Democratic White House, namely a President with absolutely NO experience and who has shown a vast amount of disdain and hatred for his own military and incompetency in his position as their Commander in Chief, has once again become a “paper tiger” and would not only do nothing to stop him, but would do nothing in response to what he had planned.
There was never any “communications satellite”. What N. Korea wanted to do was demonstrate that they now have the ability to launch their nuclear armament, the nuclear armament they created thanks to the foolishness of the Clinton Administration in believing anything the N. Koreans were telling them and their foolish belief that Kim Jong Il would EVER honor a treaty with the UN, United States or any other country other than one with similar politics, and that they would not be bullied by empty threats and promises of “Kumbaya” sung with the Liberals of this nation.
That missiles did not fail. It did not crash. It did EXACTLY what it was supposed to do. It flew right over Japan, one of the countries that the N. Koreans are historically against and have threatened repeatedly, and out into the Pacific Ocean, where it landed EXACTLY where it was supposed to.
Now, what about my calling Obama a wuss and calling his Administration worthless in the face of our enemies? Well, let’s just look at what Der Fuhrer had to say about this launching:
“North Korea broke the rules, once again, by testing a rocket that could be used for long-range missiles,” Obama said in Prague. “It creates instability in their region, around the world. This provocation underscores the need for action, not just this afternoon in the U.N. Security Council, but in our determination to prevent the spread of these weapons.”
Wow Barry…them’s some real fightin’ words. I bet `ol Uncle Kim is just a shaking in his slippers.
There was a reason that Kim Jong Il, Colonel Qaddafi and other despots became a bit more silent and backed down from their stances for the past eight years. It is because they knew damn well that President Bush was not just a bunch of talk. The North Koreans knew that if they had done this with Bush at the helm, there would be Hell to pay for it. There would be a more than likely chance that this missile would never have even been allowed to sit one that launch pad for as long as it did, and it would never have been allowed to fuel up, and it SURE as hell would never have been allowed to launch. There was a reason that, for all his threats, Il backed down and started talks with the US and other involved nations. He knew that, under Bush, he faced the reality of being overthrown and his way of life destroyed, with freedom taking over in its place.
Not now. He knows damn well that he will be able to do whatever the hell it is he wants, whenever the hell he wants to do it, and the only thing that he will have to face, is a bunch of empty rhetoric from Obama and the idiots sitting around the table, telling each other how great they all are at the UN. This is a man that has murdered his own people…sat and did nothing, allowing them to starve to death. Yet Obama and the rest of the Liberals in this nation and elsewhere actually think that a bunch of empty threats are going to contain him. It is the same belief they hold with Islam and the madmen that operate under its tenets. “If we just talk with them, they will see the light and we will all get along in one big happy family, singing ‘Kumbaya’ and holding hands and blah, blah, blah”.
After 9-11, it was thought that this country would learn from the events that surrounded that day…namely that the world is a very dangerous place, there are very dangerous people out there in it that really, really want to do harm to the bastions of Freedom, Liberty and Democracy, and that we are no longer safe from it all in our own country…that we can and will be hit.
No. In fact, that lesson was forgotten before the first anniversary of the attacks. Now here it is, almost 8 years later and not only has everyone seemingly forgotten and dismissed the lessons of that day, they elected the exact polar opposite of what this country needs to keep it safe and keep despots like Kim Jong Il in their place and marginalized, if not altogether annhilated.
If we can make it until 2012 with this country in one piece, without an all out shooting war taking place in our own borders, and without having one or more of our major metropolitan cities ending up a smoking pile of ash and rubble, it will be a miracle.
I have given up trying to figure out just what it will take to make people realize that the “Happy Fluffy World” that the drug-soaked hippies and other freaks and assorted Baby-Boomers imagined over 40 years ago DOES NOT AND WILL NEVER EXIST! Humans on this planet have always produced evil. Words are not enough to combat evil, and just because people here think that we can all get along as one big happy family does not mean that the other 7 billion people on the face of this earth believe the same way. Capitulation and appeasement NEVER works, and only emboldens the bullies/despots/dictators.
There is a distinct type of human being on this planet that has only understood and will forever only understand one thing and one thing only…and that is deadly force or the very real threat of deadly force. They will forever take advantage of the peaceful and peaceloving and view them as weak and in need of being overtaken and controlled. Even after the world witnessed the horrendous devastation and potential of two nuclear bombs dropped to end a war, they not only built more of the same weapons, but did all they could to make them even more devastating and destructive. There are those on this planet who would be incredibly happy in seeing it and every living thing on it destroyed in the name of their god and their philosophy, and no amount of protestations, song singing or hand holding will EVER make them think and feel otherwise.
It is selfishness of the people in this country to believe that others think and feel the way we do. Selfishness and foolishness, and until these morons finally understand that the road to Hell is paved with good intentions and happy thoughts, we will always be under the threat of rogue nations and murderous dictators who laugh at us when we scold them for demonstrating their military strength.
Inside America’s (Mock) Attack on North Korea
Even the hawks say there’s not much America can do, in response to North Korea’s nuclear test. But that doesn’t mean the U.S. military isn’t prepping for a war with the Kim Jong-Il regime, just in case.
In March, American and South Korean forces teamed up for the “Key Resolve/Foal Eagle” war game. 13,100 troops from outside Korea — and tens of thousands more, already stationed in the country — participated in the massive exercise, which focused on “deploying troops and equipment to Korea in the event of an attack,” according to a military press release.
Some U.S. and South Korean commandos made airborne jumps together from a helium blimp; others, from helicopters hovering above the Korea Strait. A third group ran a mock “operation to secure a suspected chemical weapons lab.” Unconventional weapons experts drilled in responding to a simulated strike involving “hundreds of WMD.” Navy helicopter pilots swept for mines, while Marine fighter pilots flew with their South Korean counterparts to “wipe out” simulated enemy aircraft.
The Americans and their allies kicked all kinds of butt in the exercise, of course. Other war games, testing out the North Korean scenario, didn’t end quite as cleanly. One ran by The Atlantic in 2005 forecast 100,000 or more dead civilians in the first few days. And that was if the U.S. could assemble the half-million to million troops needed for such an assault; none of the participants thought such a staggering number of troops could be gathered together, given all of America’s military commitments around the world.
Two years earlier, the Pentagon put together a very different kind of war plan for North Korea — one that didn’t involve ground troops at all. Instead, U.S. forces would lob bombs and missiles and electronic attacks in an instant “global strike.” Even nuclear weapons were considered, as part of the plan.
A similar “bolt from the blue” was proposed in a 2005 article for the Washington Post, by former Defense Secretary William Perry and Ashton Carter, who today serves as the Pentagon’s weapons-buyer-in-chief. They proposed taking out a North Korean long-range missile on the launchpad, to prevent the nuclear Kim Jong-Il from test-firing an ICBM. The surgical strike was, of course, never ordered. And the missile itself was kind of a dud.
In 2003, retired Colonel John Collins ran through the possible moves and countermoves in a military standoff on the Korean peninsula — from blockades to full-out nuclear strikes. His conclusion: “Any of the U.S. options described above could trigger uncontrollable escalation that would create appalling casualties on both sides of the DMZ and promise a Pyrrhic victory at best. Unilateral actions by the United States without unqualified ROK [Republic of Korea] agreement and willing participation every step of the way would be immoral as well as ill- advised. Inaction while Kim Jong Il develops a robust nuclear arsenal and perhaps supplies nuclear weapons to U.S. enemies, unfortunately, would worsen any future confrontation.”
