Several news outlets are reporting today that North Korea is threatening to fire a long-range ballistic missile towards Hawaii in early July.
Some analysts are doubting whether the North Korean missile, which has a 4,000 mile range, could reach Hawaii, a distance of approximately 4,500 miles. That's a little too close for comfort in my book.
Why is Obama voting "present" and giving the North Korean leader the go ahead with his "silence treatment" foreign policy. Does not his silence equal appeasement? Where is Ronald Reagan when you need him? Shoot, where is George W. Bush? At least with him we were safe and despots knew that if they pulled any stunts like this they would be dealt with accordingly.
What will it take to get President Obama's attention? Potbelly, porn-addicted dictator, Kim Jong Il, has already tested two nukes, with no real reaction from the President. What's it going to take? Hawaiian fireworks on the 4th of July?
Remember that the United States involvement in World War II began with the bombing of Pearl Harbor. If North Korea bombs Hawaii and China backs them, it could very easily escalate into setting the stage for World War III.
God forbid.
