why can't our american govt. just make it as simple as this?:
1. get out of Iraq...
there is no progress to be made...
Iraq is a lost cause due to the Islamic religion...
2. redeploy troops to Iran and N. Korea
3. tell those crackpot presidents that we aren't taking their BS with the nuclear weapons deal...
hand em over or we will kill you...
why can't life be this simple?
why must everything be dealt with in the politically correct manner
pardon the pun...
with the biggest military muscle on earth, i would think that we should have no problem getting these upstart terrorism based nations to see things our way...
so confused...

it's a serious question?
why do american diplomats have to get on their knee and beg this pile of dung in N. Korea to hand over some nukes when we've got enough to give the N. Koreans a good close up view of the upper stratosphere...

1. Anything that gets blown into the upper stratosphere will continue spreading across national borders thanks to global wind patterns.
2. At least one North Korean will have time to react and press the big red button.

dude, don't you have some guns and nazi souvenirs to polish? why make these idiotic threads?
it was an honest question, as I have been way too busy to research the meaning or read the news on many of these issues...
I just don't understand what makes Washington think that begging the Koreans to put their "war-weapons" back in their case will actually work...

My very rough calculations (and I mean rough: I just scribbled some numbers down on the clean side of my hanky) suggest the temperature will be as a balmy spring day. Forever.
Sounds like a plan to me.

There may not be any progress to be made, but there is certainly plenty of money to be made....if you are a company who used to be run by the current US vice-president that is!

the beacon of light to the rest of the world with your "convince by force and
make profit in the process"-philosophy. Hell, we should all just buy guns and
shoot each other down whenever we don't see eye to eye. The sneaky will
still stand and the world will be full of peace, love and commerce. Halleluja!

trouble is that a more strident us would produce an even bigger backlash, so you'd end up having to nuke more and more countries to keep the lid on things.
the real answer is that you dont have unanimity politically, and also youve got your own religious baggage, these things stop you from going too far down the fascist path.
you should see the film dr.strangelove, you'd like it 🙂
