I don't see how he justifies applying the "WMDs are bad and need to be eliminated" standard only to foreigners. He somehow thinks nuclear, chemical and biological weapons are okay when Americans handle them, because obviously, Americans have discovered the secret to using these weapons ethically, but all them evil foreigners just want to be terr'ists and kill people.
Howdy ermitonto,

There's alot of differences between our goverment and it's systems of balances and checks,as opposed to those of brutal dictators who have no checks or balances..we use nukes to preserve,protect and defend the entire Free World,not just ourselves..whereas dictators only have war and conquest..on their minds..you may as well give a nuke to an insane person..it's about the same difference.

I would like to see this whole mess with NK end peacefully,there are many folks there suffering terribly and they need the help of the Free World. I wish the same for Iran,folks are suffering there too and many want democracy..but in the case of both countries,the leadership borders on the insane. Kim il Jung,wants to take over South Korea and destroy Japan and the Iranian mullahs,want to destroy both Israel,America and probably Britain,as well as conquer Iraq.

Have a good one ...
