my point. I was trying to point out from the beginning of this post how naive and deceived many voters were to think that Obama, because he was going to be the anti-Bush, would make the world a safer place and we were all going to come together and sing kumbaya. I argued that in fact his promise of appeasement and non-conditional engagement of our enemies in Iran, NK, etc. would in fact be seen as a sign of weakness and only embolden them. My belief is coming true on both fronts (Iran and NK).

I have no idea what he should do now that he has triggered these events with his incompetence and neither does he. Frankly neither did Bush but the difference is that Kim Jong mentally il was concerned enough about how Bush might respond that he never took the chance in the way he is now, even when Bush was weakened by opposition to the Iraq war and a lame duck President. He simply could not take the chance about how we would respond but he (rightly in my view) understands that not only when Obama not penalize them for their belligerence, we will likely reward them.

Our options with NK are very limited because they have nukes and the capability to deploy them. This is the poster child for why the world should support military action against Iran to prevent them from developing similar capability. But they won't because they are feckless and incompetent like our current government.
