Yes they do ..... and they are going to be ash piles by the time we're finished. Not even the Russians were stupid enough to publicly threaten us this way.
No, they are just trying to blackmail us for more money.
Maybe the idiot read a translation of "The Mouse That Roared" and missed the satire?
Anyway, they went through the cash that Clinton and Carter sent them and this is their way of writing for more money. Bush saw that right away and said, "We're not coughing up. Talk to your neighbors."
The neighbors don't want to send any money so they said, "This isn't our problem, it's Washington's."
If I were Bush (which I'm not, for which I am very greatful at the present) I would follow the Reagan Strategy. Start pouring troops into the area and make Kimmie do the same. His economy would crack like an egg - much faster than the Berlin Wall did.
Shalom.
