Threats From Around the World

By Timothy N. Stelly, Sr.
Mar. 31, 2005

North Korean strongman Kim Jong Il may not be right on too many things, but he’s appropriately named. He must be seriously “illin’” selling woof tickets to the mightiest army in the history of the world. While his people starve and wonder why he’s posturing on the world stage, he is attempting to—or has already built—a nuclear arsenal. Perhaps he should take a look at recent history and he’ll see what happened to the last fat-mouthing dictator who threatened America.


Does he feel he can afford the luxury of talking big? Threatening to use his weapons of mass destruction against U.S. targets (probably in South Korea) is a threat that the U.S. must take serious. North Korea’s proximity to China, may give “the Il one” a false sense of security, believing China will object—and perhaps even side with them—if American troops enter the Korean Peninsula.


But who’s to say that the Chinese wouldn’t welcome an American invasion? The Chinese government could then send in troops under the guise of them being “advisors” or a peacekeeping force. In reality we know that their sole purpose for a presence in North Korea would be to siphon American intelligence and glean military strategy and tactics. Speaking of people flirting with annihilation, Iran is now being accused of building, or already in possession of WMDs. (Sound familiar?) After the lessons learned in Iran regarding fighting a desert war, the G-man is poised to strike in the next phase of his “Project Police Sub-Station.”


Next stop: The Philippines, where we are told, terrorists are holing up and plotting a strike against “American targets.” Who will we point our finger, or missiles, at next? New Zealand? Swaziland? Greenland? You know, the only region we’re not being “threatened” in is our own hemisphere. (Although Venezuela is now selling oil to China and trying to gouge us).


Yes, we are officially the world’s police force. Our slogan is, “Live in a dangerous region? Call us—we’ll save you! We’re the U.S. military— kicking butt and lovin’ it!”
