True, they are not as twisted in their thinking.

I can't see ascribing rational thinking to dictators or heads of theocratic states.
Itīs true.

We must remove the Saudi regime from power!!!

Saudi Arabia is in fact, equal than N. Korea
Democratic........................NO
Human Rights.....................NO
Police state.......................Almost

In this twisted world of alliances and foes itīs not gold everything that shines!

The bottom line is: NK sure is a rogue state, but itīs just the current foe. If turns tomorrow in a democratic state, GWB and tha idiotic press gonna find another enemy for you.

As an olīThe Clash song says: "People must have something good to read in Sunday"

Uh, you weren't expecting me to argue against that, were you? Let's put them on the list after NK.



All this talk about "making up enemies" is good and fine, until someone gets a city bombed.

Yes, and also, western democracies consist of more than 1 person making the decisions. I think that is relevant.

I prefer our country not change and remain a Constitutional Republic. You want democracy join the U.N. or the E.U.

Oh the latest conspiracey theory I heard the missles failed was because we shot'em down and that li'l dog eater Kim won't admit it :p

Well, I think only one missile actually failed and that was the Typo, the others were deactivated/self-destructed in the sea deliberately.
Though the shooting down conspiracy theory may have a small grain of truth in it, didn't the US ship out a Tico to the sea of Japan especially for the Typo?
Though 45 seconds...how far up and out to sea d'ya think it could be in 45 seconds.... :hmm:
