Departure From Sanity

The BBC announced last night that the US had acquiesced and agreed to bilateral talks with the last totalitarian state, Stalinist North Korea. America will sit across from North Korea as if they are our equals. This notion demeans the sacrifice of every American who has fallen in the battle against Communism. North Korea is a hostage-taking, proliferating, dollar and US Treasury counterfeiting, mass murder, terrorism-committing, slave and prison state. The North Koreans are in a friendly race with Iran to see who can do the most evil. Both North Korea and Iran are gripped by mad leaders-Ahmadinejad and his mullah backers- devotees of an End Time cult of the Twelfth Imam, religious fanatics who seek to bring on the cataclysm to fulfill God's will, and Kim Jong-Il, a strongman (was there ever a more unfitting misnomer for a stroke-afflicted midget) with a cadre of personality cult followers comprising his soldiers and state security apparatus who are fed and feted while other North Koreans starve. The Dear Leader of North Korea is a braggart and voluptuary who has denied himself nothing while his people suffer. We should not have American emissaries talking to his representatives-in a just world like "let them eat cake Marie Antoinette" he would face the righteous wrath of his own people. North Korea and Iran both have the primary export of trouble-menacing neighbors with North Korea just releasing water from a dam this week, drowning several South Korean campers after South Korea had already warned the dam could be used for just such a deliberate attack. Iran, of course, is the largest nation-state backer of terror-funding and supplying Hezbollah in Lebanon, their sister organization Hezbollah in Iraq, other Shiite terrorists in Iraq as well, America's enemies in neighboring Afghanistan, and Hamas, the terror organization determined to never compromise with Israel but like Ahmadinejad, determined to eliminate the Jewish state. So Obama, whose spokesman Gibbs prematurely went out of his way to congratulate Ahmadinejad on his stolen election victory before the ire of Iran's people showed on her streets, will still sit with the last members of the Axis of Evil, dispatching our diplomats now to reason with the unreasonable North Koreans. Who knows-our compromisers may even reach a deal but will the North Koreans uphold their end of the bargain? It is a given North Korea will not-they are kidnappers and murderers who will extort America and the West to their strategic advantage, then roll out another nuke, lob more missiles over Japan, or use some other provocation against their South Korean brothers to demand even more.
