When something happens, we usually search for evidences, and next, we ask who will be the most benefitor. Sometimes latter be more important factor… On June 2nd, National Election for 8 position of regional governer scheduled… and at this point who is the beneficiary is so clear. It’s like our clock is rewind to 10 or 20 years before.. Shameful…

North Korea has always been a hairy mole growing on the face of south east Asia for the past half century, and one day the doctor will say : no option left but to cut it off.
I just hope that it does not turn malignant before that, and by malignant, I mean nukes being fired all around.

Here’s my proposal to solve the problem of North Korea. The U. S. should negotiate a “treaty” with China whereby China would occupy North Korea soon and the U. S would eventually withdraw its committment to support Taiwan’s independence. At some future date (2050) the two Koreas would be re-united and China would have extended its hegemony to its neighboring countries.

As long as the thugs the run the banking cartels (the Fed, and the rest of them) dictate our economy, print money from nowhere, populate inside positions within the highest offices in the land… you can expect the US military to be nothing more than the a “private police force” for the global interests of the elite power structure. We have no Government for the people. Change? What Change? More of the same. North Korea know this better then the American public.

@ “a foreign-affairs neophyte”… give it a break! Did you consider Bush to be a scholar in foreign affairs? I remember him stumbling over basic questions about countries like a very dull schoolboy. Why do Republicans feel the need to constantly deride and undermine President Obama, especially when their own recent offerings –Bushes, Reagan, Ford Nixon– have decidedly not been at the top of the intellectual or ethical gene pool.

Perhaps we should consider bringing our troops home and focus on building a better society.

I don’t think governments responded powerfully to the financial crisis. The bankers stole so much money from the financial system that the public had to restore some of that money. Basically, the government submitted to the will of the bankers. Governments of the West are extremely weak, and the next decade is going to reveal this.

It doesn’t help that a foreign-affairs neophyte is sitting in the White House, practicing diplomacy crafted by Oprah. ‘Engagement’ indeed. The sooner America comes to its sense and offloads this character and replaces him with someone even halfway competent – which shouldn’t be difficult – the better.

North Korea is just responding to the weakness it sees in the west and the obama administration in particular.When will the progressives wake up and learn from the mistakes of the past.Will it take another world war? As the disparity between the have and have nots grows,the quasi socialist ecomomies of europe begin to crumble from within,I grow increasingly more confident that the obama grand plan is just that-WWIII.This administration better wake up because the clock is ticking..
