Fireworks and Candy Make Me il

What
a bunch of crap we see in the media over this North Korea missile launch
thingy. Poor Kim Jong-il has tried
everything else to get into the clubhouse, so why is it any surprise that he
would decide to shoot off some glorified firecrackers for our Fourth of July celebration
in hopes of impressing us enough to let him join the grownups in the big bad
nuclear club? So now everyone is in a
snit about it and trying to decide whether to slap his powder burned hands or
offer some sweet bribes to make him stop playing with the fireworks.
Question: Why does anybody have the need to test fire
an ICBM? Answer: To see if it works because they plan to
eventually use it. At least that is the
only reason for a crappy little country like North Korea doing it. They certainly have no reason to think that
building a nuclear arsenal is necessary to stabilize world tensions or even to
protect themselves from anyone firing on them.
These reasons are not even logical.
Nobody cares enough about this dependent, needy little country to waste
a perfectly good nuke on them – unless of course they provoke it with a first
strike.
So,
let’s take a closer look at the little guy who wants to play with the big
boys. He is an egomaniac of the worst
degree. (Take a look at the official
website for North Korea.) He has
delusions of grandeur, besides being a filthy little communist. There, I’ve said it. He knows that he MUST stake his claim in the
hierarchy of the communist world community or be left sucking hind tit with the
little people when communism finally dominates the world. (Don’t laugh – that’s what all communists
think – that it will one day win out.)
Don’t
expect big things from the “candy store”, aka the U.N. in the way of helping to
settle the little man down. Now, the
“candy manufacturer”, on the other hand, (that’s U.S. by the way), will either
shut down the factory and take away his fireworks or more likely come up with a
great big old lollypop for “Mr. Ill”, and make him promise to never play with
matches again. Meanwhile the world
media will step up an ad campaign for candy like we’ve never seen before.
I, for one, refuse to quake in my boots over this one. After all, boys will be boys. If everybody looked at it that way and slapped the crap out of the misbehaving brat when he gets out of line, what a peaceful world this would be!
