David Hawkins Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090414/ap_on_..._nkorea_missile Seriously......who did not see this comming. Everytime they have a Summit or a gathering of Country Leaders where NK says they will be there, NK will ALWAYS come up with some Reason NOT to show up or to Depart early. Every time I read where the Leaders are getting together (including NK) I always laugh because NK either will NOT show up or does a Stomping off like some 10 Year Old. It's time to take OFF the Rose Colored Glasses everyone and make NK a Glass Parking Lot. I will BET that with in 5 Years, we will have Troops in NK or in SK at the Boarder to NK.

ilmor Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I think the important thing is that we and our allies stay coordinated and strong against these thugs like NK and maintain our defensive weapons and systems in top condition. I have to believe that we're doing that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already have troops at the SK/NK border. They've been there since the cease-fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffIsHereToo Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 NK and Iran is and was more dangerous than Iraq ever was IMO. +1 People also forget that Iraq and Iran kept one another in check always worried the other would attack. It was a thorn in our sides but unlike Iran there is no proof it ever provided material support to terrorists or worked with them. Iraq's Shite ruling minority had no love of the Sunni majority's aligned groups. It also feared an attack by Iran and was pretty much bottled up there. That concern is gone for Iran and they don't see anyone, other than Israel, that can stand up to their increasing influence and designs in the region. We need to keep in mind that NK had a nuclear program long before Iran while Iraq never had more than a few biological weapons programs and had long abandoned any nuclear aspirations so they were out of play. I think our real problem states are NK, Iran, for where they are headed, and Pakistan and India for where they may go. The later two have nuclear weapons and in the case of Pakistan more than a few muslim extremists. The of course you throw in Russia and China and it's just a crazy world these days!

RUFDRAFT Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Let's review - shall we? We invade Iraq seeking WMD that we never found. We know Iran and NK have WMD. But we don't invade. Maybe it's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the Bush administration's intelligence reports that we know now ignored any evidence counter to that claim. So your point is? We haven't had a good Bush bashing in here in a long time, we haven't had a good "we up invading Iraq discussion in a long time too, do you really want to open up that stuff again and put yourself in a position of defending that decision? "You gotta ask yourself...do I feel lucky?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
