Could it be that one of the AXIS TRIPLETS actually poses a threat? An actual and possibly "verifiable' threat? Well...what are we to do?

Anybody know if we actually pulled out of the DMZ? Boy..we are going to need our allies on this one..

I'm so glad we stopped Saddam from pointing his nukes at us.

These next four years are going to be troubling indeed.

Kim Jong "MENTALLY" IL is really going to screw with us now. I guess we have to plead with "CHINA" to rein him in.

We'll have allies on this one.

South Korea is one of the wealthiest nations in the world. Even though the younger generations forgot about how we saved their skin in the Korean War, they'll support us if Kim starts playing the nuclear card. Japan will too.

China is economically dependent on Asian regional stability. The U.S. is also their largest trading partner. The last thing they want is some crazy dictator disrupting the entire region, especially during this period of rapid Chinese growth.
