I have been away for some time and it seems that the forces of tyranny have not relented… I guess there’s no rest for the wicked. So here goes:
First up: North Korea. First they test a nuclear weapon in direct violation of international law. Then they fire three short-range missiles off of their east coast, raising the stakes in its confrontation with the civilized world. Finally they threaten war if South Korea attempts to participate in efforts to stop weapons trafficking. All in a week’s work for dictator Kim Jong Il.
In response, the Obama administration has issued strongly worded condemnations and warnings of consequences for these actions. Let’s be serious, Obama has ignored North Korea for the majority of his tenure so far and Kim has been proceeding with his tests and nuclear arms buildup without a care in the world. How is it surprising that Kim Jong Il exploded a bomb similar to the Hiroshima and Nagasaki? How is it surprising that they launch missiles? How is it surprising that they threaten war?
Kim Jong Il took one good look at Barack Hussein Obama and he laughed.
North Korea will continue to provoke the international community as long as he believes that the United States and the UN will do nothing except issue denunciations or slap sanctions on their country.

The current weak president has only emboldened our enemies. Watching the situation unfold would be funny if it weren’t so serious. Obama should make sure that North Korea does not give this technology to our other enemies… otherwise it will be on his watch that Al Qaeda becomes a nuclear power.
