So what is the solution - the world is on the brink of a World War - the lunatic/fanatical fringe against those few countries left with any spines - to try and keep the world from the brink of pure insanity. . .
Poor Israel - to be surrounded by hateful, duplicitous terrorist states. I guess we should have expected this and next will be that somehow it is all the US’s fault. . . [especially the foreign policy of the past 5 years]
Forget the bike, I would recommend stocking the pantry and making sure you have the plan and ability to ‘head for the hills’ and some lethal form of ‘protection/defense’.
On one hand, I would agree that arming Japan could be a bad thing. On the other hand, their last pre-emptive attack was against a rather poor choice of targets…
If ding-dong ILL gets smacked down (or even scared off) and Seoul doesn’t get flattened in the process, what more can you (realistically) ask for?

I like most dislike war, but dammit, if we are going to do it do it right, the full monty and while we’re at it, annex one of these oil rich emirates as the next state, good ole colonialism!
Tsay hello to Israel’s leetle fren’!

The latest Arab-Israeli imbroglio should demonstrate, for yet another time, that the conflict is irreconcilable until one of the two opposing sides ceases to exist. One side at least in this conflict has always had every intention of bringing that about.
It is difficult to believe that North Korea is doing, or has ever done, anything that a dutiful puppet of the Chicomms is not told to do. It is patently ridiculous to think that North Korea, which amounts to a mole in the Chicomm armpit, ever followed any truly independent existence.
North Korea’s recent phallic posturing with missiles is only a case in point. A cat’s-paw is always useful when a provocation is desired, the object, of course, being an embarrassment (or worse) for the Bush administration.
Incidentally, what domestic legion of liars and lice wants any such embarrassment they can lay their paws on? Is it too much to wonder if any of them could have a hand in at least the timing of this? It goes without saying that any number of them would be only too delighted.
Rest assured that in Beijing, they regard Japan as OUR cat’s-paw, and I doubt that the prospect of a “proxy war” would cause any Chicomm to lose any sleep. And incidentally, speaking of fuel shortages, what are the Chicomms doing with all that oil they are now ahead of us in consuming?
As for Chavez (read Fidel Jr., seasoned with essence of Peron), he may yet do something to warrant a knockover, and it would also be a good opportunity to deal with Fidel Sr. en passant. It is more certain that the opportunity will present itself, however, than it is certain that we could or would seize the moment.
Necessity knows no law, but what two people agree on its definition?
