North Korean Regime Whipsaws South Korea- Again

Just a day or two after abruptly pulling the rug out from under South Korea on the latest “agreement” to allow cross-border family visits, the North Korean cult-government has cut sharply in the reverse direction again, offering “talks” on a variety of issues with the South. Like a dumb dog, the South Korean regime is falling for the latest mind-fucking teaser bait on offer.

At the same time, the North says the South (and U.S.) should be less hostile! (Umm, do they have any mirrors in North Korean?)

The BBC reports that this latest feint by the North has raised hopes in the South of better relations. (Feb. 11, 2014.)

Hope springs eternal in some quarters, apparently. Or some suckers are infinitely foolable, like Charlie Brown in the Peanuts cartoons, always being duped by Lucy and trying to kick the football she holds (which she always, without fail, pulls away at the last minute and Charlie ends up on his back).

North Korea's Latest Cruel Ruses

The pathological regime reneged after only one day on allowing family visits between the two Koreas. Yet another example of how they treat the people they rule like cockroaches.

And the psychopaths reneged in one day on an agreement to allow a visit to imprisoned U.S.-Korean missionary Kenneth Bay. They were supposedly going to free him from an 8 yr hard labor sentence.

Yet idiots keep trying to help the regime. Bay was running tour groups for the country.

The North Korean regime's beef this time was a single B-52 involved in military exercises with the South. Well if South Korean military exercises bother the regime so much, they might consider ceasing their military attacks on the South, like its sinking of a South Korean naval ship and the shelling of a South Korean island, both recent acts of unprovoked aggression.

Ok, from the North Korean regime's perspective, there was provocation- the South looked at them wrong, or forgot to say "how are you today?" or some demented crap. It's long past time to stop trying to appease these psychopaths. Just tell them- build all the nuclear weapons you like. Ever use them on our allies, and we'll blow you off the face of the earth, China be Damned. And if China doesn't like that, then let China jerk N.K.'s leash. N.K. is China's client, so N.K.'s misbehavior is China's responsibility. Oh, and if the U.S. sees the psychoregime building missiles that can reach any U.S. territory, preemptively blow them up.

Too bad Israel doesn't have a beef with North Korea- we know what would happen then! (See: Iraq, Iran.) Israel calls the tune on U.S. foreign policy where Israel is concerned. (Check out youtube.com videos with John Mersheimer and Stephen Walt for details explanations of what I mean.)

 

Assad Brings Polio Back to Syria

Children are being paralyzed by the polio virus, which thanks to the regime of dictator Bashir al-Assad

has returned to Syria. Assad's Alawite oligarchy, (Assad himself inherited the dictatorship from his exsanguinous dad, Hafez) has been waging a war of extermination against the civilian population of the country it misrules in areas where rebels have driven out Assad's gunmen. This war of extermination includes use of starvation, poison gases, and bombing and shelling of schools, markets, and wherever else groups of civilians of any ages might congregate and thus be killed in numbers.

From the beginning of the civil war over two years ago, the Assad regime has targeted health care workers suspected of aiding the wounded in rebel areas, and medical facilities have been special targets. The regime just murdered a doctor, after torturing him for 8 months first. With their special signature cruelty, Assad's minions led the doctor and his family to believe he was about to be released just before murdering him. Then, in their usual smarmy and hyper-cynical fashion, insisted he'd committed suicide. Pushing such obvious lies in the world's face is one way they show their contempt for morality and the opinion of humanity. Indeed, like the Nazis (a number of whom were harbored in Syria after World War II), the Assadites draw psychological strength from their openly reveling in their own immorality and criminality. This is characteristic of devils. They glory in their evil.

As part of the criminal way the Assad regime wages its war of extermination against anyone who dares question the Alawite oligarchy's right to rule Syria in perpetuity and without a peep of protest, as I said, medical services in areas it has lost control of are targeted for destruction, and medicine, like food, is cut off. Thus two enemies of humanity are effectively in league: the polio virus, and the Assad regime.

Both need and deserve to be extirpated from the face of the earth.

P.S. The UN just issued yet another report on Syria, this one on the torture, maiming, and sexual crimes

against children there, mostly by the regime, but some crimes committed by the rebels too. Not to worry: the UN diplomats and bureaucrats are still well fed and sleeping in comfortable beds. I'm sure this report will prompt some renewed hand-wringing and crocodile tears shed by the political bosses of the world.
