OT: A Nuclear North Korea

Atrocities · #1 October 11th, 2006, 06:10 AM

So the latest news is that Kim Jong-il has said that unless the US returns to one on one talks with NK, they will launch a nuclear tipped warhead.

This just proves that he intends to black mail the world into giving in to his demands. "I want my cakes and I want too be able to eat it too."

Simply put, this is all about the all might Kim Jong-il and his desire for power and respect. He got away with murder by lying to the world, and now he, like a modern day con man, wants the good times to role yet once again.

If there were ever a need for the open contract for assissination of a standing head of state, this bastard would be prime target number one. Just think, if someone would have had the balls to waste that puke Hitler early in the 1930's, how many lives would have been saved. This is a no brainer. Lets put a 1 billion dollar bounty on the head of Kim Jong-il and let the cards fall where they may.

I agree with all those that talk about China. We need to somehow make China lean on NK a lot harder than it has been. One thing that hasnt' been mentioned (or at least I didn't see it) is that NK gets 70% of it's food and 50% of it's energy from China. Let China tighten the screws a little and see what kind of political upheaval Il sees.

Whatever happens, the USA can't get involved.

We got involved in Iraq, haven't stopped listening to how we've screwed up the region since.

The US should pull all troops out of South Korea and ship them to Iraq immediatly.

When Kim il Jong calls the White House, they should say "And you are.. who again? What do you want? A Peace Treaty? With someone on the other side of the world??? Good heavens what for? Call your neighbors, we're too far away to care what you do."

We let the Kim family have safe exile in China in exchange that he turn over everything to the SK authorities,

This was tried with Saddam and sons just before the invasion of Iraq. No dice. These guys dont want money and to live a life of ease. They want the power that only a dicatator has. Mussolini once said "It is better to live as a lion for a day than as a sheep for a thousand years" Maybe he would reconcider on the day the mob was stringing him up by his toes though...
