Okay my hair didn't turn back to blonde overnight so I would appreciate someone explaining to this old Marine...so NK fires a missle at US then what? Let's just say China or Russia takes over tomorrow then what? Do these countries think that three hundred million Americans are gonna roll over on our backs and say "Okay, now whatcha want us to do now?"....I just can't figure this out. What the heck does NK want? They are poor ignorant slobs now. Do they think that if they are running the show that things are going to get better if they start running the show somewhere else it's going to get better???? It is very early here on the left coast and I haven't had my cup of java yet so I would appreciate some understanding if there is something I am missing here. Semper Fi

Steven Den Beste has presented a convincing case that North Korea's insane saber rattling, at a country (ours) that could incinerate it with the merest twitch of its powers, is an attempt to get us to prop them up yet a while longer. It's entirely through our charity that the Pyongyang Gang has stayed astride its dying horse as long as it has. Our shipments of free food and free oil are all that stand between North Korea and utter collapse, all the way back to the fist-ax level -- and both those things are now suspended.

The right thing to do is outwait them, go in after the regime has collapsed, and then reintegrate them with South Korea, under the government in Seoul. I think that's the strategy the Bush Administration is pursuing, bless 'em.

They've "misunderestimated" Dubya again, I think.

They probably do. They don't get real information from their news sources and edumcayshun system.

North Korea, more than anything, wants to be noticed by the United States. If South Korea want to deal with them, we can loan them a few patriot missiles. If not, we can turn the hardware over to Japan to deal with them.

Poor North Korea . . . becomming as irrelavant as Phil Donahue.
