Neocons usually turn into p*ssies when they go up against a tough enemy. They just love nice little wars with small countries which are no direct threat to U.S. with armies of moralizing lawyers micromanaging battles.

Even now, they would rather fight in Mid-East than E. Asia.

Iran had a LOT of money that was frozen by the Carter regime. It was not exactly a gift.

Well, duhhhhhhhh.....

What do you think that $150 billion that Obama illegally transferred to Iran in the middle of the night was to be used for? (after the necessary secret kickbacks to Obama and Kerry)

Yeah. A probable scheme is:

Iran —(large sum of money)—> Russia —(more sophisticated rocket tech)—> N. Korea —(tech transfer)—> Iran.

China? Enabled N. Korea by allowing many parts and equipment for rocket and nuke production to flow into N. Korea. Even provided TEL(mobile launch vehicle.)

Russia probably juiced up NK R&D, allowing NK to be further along than China wanted. That does not exonerate NK. China is the one to set up N. Korea in the first place. Should have known they may not have 100% control. China is more guilty than Russia.

It's probable that Russia provided North Korea and Iran with critical nuclear and ballistic missile technology because Russia wanted to use Iranian nuclear threats as proxy to check Saudi and Qatari aggression against Russian oil and gas interests.

Several years ago the North Koreans were bragging publicly about their huge nuclear weapons and missile breakthroughs and Putin publicly told them to shut up.

Iran is a full partner in the North Korean WMD programs and has been right from the start. They have used the North Koreans as a secure nuclear and missile development and production job shop to bust sanctions.

BTW , the disastrous Obama Iran deal focused almost entirely on halting Iran's production of enriched, weapons grade uranium.

At the same time, the sudden advancement in Iranian/North Korean nuclear weapons technology essentially mooted the issue of enriched uranium because the more advanced weapons do not rely as much on hard to process weapons grade uranium and instead use other nuclear materials

So Obama essentially did nothing to slow Iran's acquisition nuclear weapons but instead provided Iran and NK huge sums of money that have funded the development and production of far more advanced and more easily miniaturized devices along with advanced intercontinental ballistic missile capabilities.

If you look at the time line history, the North Korean programs really took off after Obama released frozen assets to Iran.

Agreed. With Iran awash in money, they can buy serious tech for N. Koreans who can experiment and build operational nuke and ICBM, especially ICBM. I suspect that NK could have developed the new nuke, which they tested a week ago, on their own, but not their new ICBM rockets.

Correction: That does not exonerate NK China.

Iran is providing the funds to make up for the embargo in exchange for the technology Russia supplies?? Then Iran will get some of the finished product?

I had my money on Ukraine for the nuke and Pakistan for the Missile.
