The Duel of Rogue States - North Korea and USA
printThe Duel of Rogue States - North Korea and USA
A very big Rogue States, USA, wants to dictate the behaviour of a small Rogue State, North Korea.
North Korea is heading towards the situation, Israel, Pakistan, India, France and some others have already for some time. And this fact seems to be a problem.
However - fact is:
There are only 3 Atom Powers: USA, Russia and China. The rest is just for fun.
Why? Because all the others can be shattered by the great ones within hours, should they be stupid enough to take their bombs and rockets out of their little depots. The world cannot afford an atom war, anymore - and the big ones know it. So, the real danger comes alone from USA, Russia and China.
But now, let's speak about the opera Rogue State North Korea
They may soon have some little atom bombs and weak rockets. Not bad for a State that cannot nourish its own population and is dictated for years by people who could be more stupid. The whole affair with North Korea reminds me some dramas of Shakespeare which in fact seemed much more of importance than they were.
Who to explain to North Korea should have no atom weapons when Israel, France, England, Pakistan and soon Egypt and Iran have some of it, and why not, South Korea or Japan as well. I learn that Japan could have atom power within 6 months if only they would take that decision.
And now, it's time to come to the non-opera Rogue State USA
They have the most powerful army of the world. They nearly spend 50 percent of total war preparation costs (defence costs) of the whole world. I have written an article an the percentages of USA, Russia, China, India etc.
So USA should just be quiet in view of the following:
USA helped Taliban to win the war against Russia in Afghanistan.
USA helped Hussein to kill one million folks in the gas war against Iran.
USA helped Israel to build up its atom program and build settlements in Palestine.
USA helped Pinochet in killing 3 thousand of own youth and intelligentsia.
USA helped the Argentine Generals to do so with 30 thousand youth and socialists.
USA helped Friedman and Greenspan to bring misery with IMF over Africa.
USA helped New Europe to turn down Russia and get in misery for 90 percent.
USA helped all right-wing regimes world-wide with torture and wars.
USA helped any crook if working against China, Russia, Venezuela and Cuba
USA helped Wall Street to shatter world finance with Investment and Hedge Banks.
And this is only a short listing of Rogue Deeds of big USA - this lovely State of Democracy.
So, North Korea can do for the next 2000 years any criminal act and would not get equal to USA.
Still, we need no Atom Power, not in the USA, not in Russia, not in China, not in India and for certain, not in any place on this restricted and starving planet.
But how to achieve that aim?
Well, Obama is a "Yes, we can - we can change - we can think - Man". Let's have hope that some other Americans reach his intellectual level soon.
Otherwise, we can forget about any justice or equal right for all - on this funny globe.
