I'm glad I'm not the ONLY one who notices this pattern. At least, those in my line of work notice it well, and I'm talking about OTHER Enlisteds, here.
If a bunch of Bluejackets around the lunch table can see the pattern, why is it so difficult for those with all those degrees and titles?

Nukes reduce the need for a large standing Army.
However, unless you are willing to use nukes, then they no longer have the ability to prevent war. And if you will not use nukes, then a huge standing army is the only option left.
So, are you suggesting that America spend the money to outfit a strong 5 million person military (with tanks, artillery, aircraft, ships, subs, etc) instead?
Are YOU willing to pay for this huge military?

China/Russia may have intended to sit on the sidelines on this one, but they won't be able to much longer. I don't know what they'll do exactly, but something I'm sure.

Yeah, but compard to what North Korean nukes fired as a "shot from the grave" represent - DEFINITE death for millions in Seoul, Pusan, Tokyo, Saesbo, Kadena, and elsewhere...
We have no choice. We may have to replicate Osirak on Yongbyon. And do so soon.

If you're in San Francisco, then God will probably destroy it before NK does. If he doesn't, then, of course, he'll have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.
Uh oh. What if he decides to use NK to execute his Judgment on SF? Hmmm. My Advice.... Pray and Fast and Repent. It worked for the Ninevites. It could work for SF. BTW Where is Jonah when you need him?

I feel we are about to witness the end of the Liberal strangle hold in America. People are tired of them and their continuous appeasement of our enemies. WJC chose his cabinet with the implicit thought that they were there to serve him and NOT the Country. Thoughout Bill Clinton's life, he has consistantly chosen the path of least resistance and we are paying the price for that kind of leadership and failed policies now.
As I have said many times, History will be the worst enemy of the legacy of Bill Clinton and the miserable failures he chose to serve in his cabinet. Facts are facts and the failed policies of Bill Clinton and Al Gore will haunt us for many years

Asked about this the Earth replied it would study the NK position and comment at a later time.
To: MissAmericanPie
Yeah, China worries me, for sure. Their current chummy relationship with us doesn't reassure me.

4 Trident Subs with multiple reentry conventional, independantly targeted warheads, you really could do some nice pinpoint work and no nuclear fallout mess, surprise NK, no more nuclear plants or military infastructure, you can be as close as 50 miles, no warning.

Did you type all those "ha's" one at a time, or do you have a program for it? Low tech.
I just type a dozen or so then copy and paste.
To: Gritty
I'm afraid you're right.
They're the pivot on the axis of evil....

"The thing is, if they unite with other like minded nations, with nukes, we could have a bit of a problem." It doesn't appear the new regime is interested any longer in U.S. military support.
Protesters hold an anti-U.S. demonstration in Seoul on November 27.

I fail to see how you surmise all of this from my one word reply.

Its time to get into the Holiday "Spirit."

Nuke NK and turn it over to the Chinese.

N. Korea might be a bigger threat, But Iraq will serve as an example. If suicide is what North korea wants, than they will launch a nuclear tipped missile. But history has shown that Dictators are willing to send their people to their deaths but do all they can to preserve themselves and the flock the have beaten into submission.

I hope I shall never see the day when the forces of right are deprived of the right of force. We sleep soundly in our beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on our behalf.
Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality that guarantees all the others.
If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
Never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
We cannot guarantee victory, but only deserve it.
Winston Churchill
