There is only one person to blame for the mess that is North Korea, beyond the North Korean President. And that’s the US President.
Do you remember some six long years ago there was some significant progress on relations between north and south on the Korean Peninsula. WEE seem to remember families being able to visit each other for the first time in years. Slowly, year by year, there was a thawing in relations and North Korea was slowly but surely being led toward normalisation.
Then what happened? Cowboy Bush. That’s what happened.
His ignorant, dull-headed, simpleton-like approach to international relations decided that they weren’t going to tolerate regimes like those in North Korea. He beat his chest and threatened and chided.
Then September 11 happened. And his hairy-chested, moron diplomacy became even more extreme. He included North Korea in the ‘axis of evil’ speech. Totally unnecessary, totally provocative, and totally responsible for where we are today, with North Korea testing nuclear weapons to protect themselves from potential Iraq-like situations.
If ever there was a more stupid series of actions on behalf of an American President WEE would like to know what they are. And the US has nowhere, repeat nowhere to go with this one. What are they going to do? Invade? Can’t do that. Negotiate? Can’t do that. Bomb North Korea? God forbid.
Bush has backed the US into a corner and made the world a less safe place, not only through his stupidity regarding North Korea, but with his foolishness in Iraq, and more recent chest-beating over Iran.
It’s time to call Bush and his idiot supporters on their absolutely flawed foreign policies. These people have no idea how to secure the world. They are incapable of working towards peaceful outcomes. They do not know what they are doing.
It’s time for all of us to stand up and be counted. Anyone who supports the US President, including his pathetic little lieutenants Johnny Howard and Tony Blair, does not have solutions for world security. They are part of the problem. They are playing dangerous games with our futures.
They must be stopped. They must be challenged on their record. And their record is they have made the world a much more dangerous place than it has been anytime since the cold war, perhaps ever. Kim Jong-Il didn’t start this diplomatic disaster (and yes WEE all agree his probably mad, and a terrible president) but Bush has not controlled the situation and has exacerbated things with his completely disastrous diplomatic flights of deceit and lies.
Howard, Blair and Bush. A trio of fools who have contributed to the world’s descent toward a very dangerous hotbed of fanatics and nuclear loonies. They must be condemned now, and their policies and legacy condemned to the dustbin of history.
