The left has told us that North Korea and Iran have nothing to do with one another. I guess they would have said the same thing about Japan and Germany sixty years ago.

They had better hurry! I'MANUTJOB of Iran has promised America a "fiery hell" by August 22th!

Maybe Iran got the bomb from North Korea and they will test it Aug. 22nd.

Me too, Mo. I was going to type that I questioned the timing of this given what's going on elsewhere.

I take it direct ocean shipping between North Korea and Iran is commonplace.

Well that's a very interesting piece of information.

I'm thinking that Iran and NK have decided that now is the time to do whatever they want considering that our elections are coming up and they think the US has lost its edge.

I pray they are wrong.

"I pray they are wrong."

My money is on "wrong". The problem is, if the "test" or "tests" come as a attack, it will force us to do Very Bad Things.

Pray it doesn't escalate afterwards.

i think outside of visiting a duck farm or some other such stupid place with two of his generals in tow perhaps the other day (but no eyewitnessess), more or less the little fat bastard has been underground all this time (from right before he launched the scuds, nodongs and taepondong for a 4th of July fireworks show). he truly is afraid of being hammered by the USA, and digs deeper and deeper and deeper (while we perfect weapons in Nevada that go deeper and deeper and deeper)!! :-)

I have never believed in coincidence - in any regard. Everything happens for a reason, we just may never know that reason.

In this case - I think your statement suffices...

I hope you are right; the problem is that so many nations lately have seen the US effectively emasculated due to all of the domestic power struggles in this country they can think (and MAY be right) that the left in this country would prefer nuclear armed enemies rather than supporting our President in time of war.

I think it's coming to that.

The over/under should be on whether we're going to do anything about it.

If recent history means anything - we will do nothing but complain....oh, and a little moaning might go with it.

For some reason, we are standing around peeing in our boots, while the world gets ready to kill us. All because we don't have the guts to FIGHT. We are so worried about PC warfare - and diplomacy that we are letting these murderious crazies arm themselves. By the time we realize there is a problem, it will be too late (and many people will be dead).

100% on the nose. Hear, hear...

The bad guys are on the march, and for some reason (denial, probably), the left is blind to this obvious fact. How many millions have to die before the gloves come off?

We're already the world's pariah for our "Cowboy Diplomacy," why not mount up now and show the world what a real rodeo looks like?

Iran and North korea getting hot at the same time.
The Lebanon war showed them the West will hesitate and backtrack in any war involving Israel. They see a wide open window of opportunity.

--Iran and North korea getting hot at the same time.
Coincidence? I think not.--

Connect the dots.

NK tests nuke.
NK sneaks nuke to Iran.
Iran sneaks nuke to terrorist bastards just in time for 8/22.
Boom!

There is new evidence that North Korea may be preparing to for an underground test of nuclear bomb, U.S. officials tell ABC News.

This is just a set-up by KKKarl Rove to instill fear in the American public and to take the Lamont victory out of the news! Wake up Amerika! </DemocraticUnderground>
