Getting serious, for once.

I'm curious about everyone's thoughts on this:

EDIT: I'm also very interested in the opinions of those outside the U.S. What do you think of the U.S. and its interactions with other countries? How's your economy?

You call yourself cynical - when you have such faith in the power of other countries to cause havoc and the power of the united states to solve the problem of North Korea (shhhhh...don't tell China...they might worry about a small country right next door to them)

Huh???? I'm confused - Where did I say the U.S. would solve it??? The heavy handed implication was that we won't.

And as far as small countires causing havoc? Thats not alarmism. My point was that no one pays attention to the shit they are doing...we scrutinize Iraq while N. Korea is testing missles, shadowing U.S. planes and pumping their people full of propaganda convincing them that the U.S. wants to attack. Check out North Korea's national news site...its fascinating as all hell.

Granted, they obviously do not have the economy to support a full scale war. But that didn't stop them in nam....

quick question -

why are you, a week later, making comments on this post just to argue with people? I mean,its kelli's journal...its kind of mean spirited to go through and do this.

Not to imply that you aren't entitled to your opinon...I just don't see why its neccesary to waste all the energy to go through and disagree with EVERYONE who commented on this thread. (esp when your comment to me made no sense!)

"them" meaning the people of vietnam. Just so my words aren't twisted again...
