Well, North Korea is at it again.
Seems like ever since President Bush left office North Korea is fearless and no longer afraid.
In fact, Kim Jong Il is probably laughing at this new president right now.
Not only does he like to test weapons, he likes to test and play poker with Super Powers.
Indeed, we should not have been surprised by North Korea and their nuclear pursuits or their missile launches and underground tests.
By the way, is anyone sure that was actually a nuclear weapon detonated underground.
I would like a real confirmation on that.
Although, either way, allowing them to save face helps us and their coming clean will too, if we verify it is so? I fully expect a re-test of their political will with President Obama, but if they piss off China, I bet China ends up with more land some day.
The sleeping Dragon will expand her thirst for power and resources cometh and the treasure fleet sails again 7 centuries later with nuclear power and steel rather than a bamboo hull design and wood.
Leave it to the country that invented fire crackers to light a fire under the World as it attempts to move to super power status.
So, it passed Germany for the number three GDP slot and Japan the next for number two spot as soon as the US consumer starts spending again, oh and they will, you know the Americans, they are going to want all those $10,000 hybrids that China and the Oracle from Omaha who is 10% owner.
But, back to the issues in North Korea, you can bet that more Seven Party Talks, and negotiation will yield little results and President Obama does not look like he is tough enough to handle the mighty Kim Jong Il, who has vastly more experience in such things than President Obama.
I bet North Korea also voted for Change!
