Over fifteen years ago President Bush designated Iran and North Korea as members of the "Axis of Evil." They still are and even more sinister. North Korea has atomic weapons and Iran has sophisticated ICBMs and they both hate the United States with an unnatural passion. Why wouldn't they get together like peanut butter and chocolate to carry out their dangerous designs? Only Afghanistan and China stand between them on a land route ... so they could secretly swap their terror technologies.Well, unfortunately they seem to be doing just that ... see: Breitbart Article.
This collusion complicates our national security issue tremendously. I would like to believe that there is a solution to these "existential" threats other than turning these countries into charcoal briquettes (a John Bolton phrase) ... because much of the rest of the world will likely conflagrate along with them. Will sanity prevail once they are both locked and loaded? It did during the Cold War and I would like to believe that it will again. But there are no guarantees.
Will we have suicide countries like we have had suicide bombers? Only Allah and the "little fat kid" can tell ...
Afterward: Wouldn't it be nice if Ayatollah Khemenei's prostate cancer and Kim Jong Un's obesity took care of these problems for us?
