America knows you did such a great job with North Korea that this should be a piece of cake. Oh and be sure to stop by the CIA. They have a little device that they wanna stick inside one of those plastic boobs of yours. For your safety of course. Just don't let Bennie fondle them too much. They could probably hook you up with a very special satellite vedeo transmitter too. That way we could all see the peace loving Taliban terrorist ourselves.
