Perhaps China will buy North Korea? But would North Korea accept American debt to China for the purchase?
There is no “End Game” in sight for a world led of lunatics other than that posited by Nobel Physicist Michio Kaku in his book “Visions” where he theorizes if other civilizations like ours have existed elsewhere in the universe they may have reached our stage of nuclear development and destroyed themselves. I have written extensively on this theme myself, and find Kaku’s observation chillingly pragmatic.
In any event “solutions” will find their own course despite the efforts of the Albert Schweitzer’s and Mother Teresa’s of the world. Michio Kaku knowing well how leaders refuse to listen to their critics took a page from Henry Thoreau concerning government: “Why does it always crucify Christ, and excommunicate Copernicus and Luther, and pronounce Washington and Franklin rebels?” However, that is the reality despite the self-destructive course of governments. To refuse to countenance this reality is to be ignorant to the point of maliciousness.
To listen to those who would “lecture” about the need for diplomacy in a world where nations with nuclear bombs are led of lunatics is itself lunacy. You do not reason with tyrants and despots; you kill them before they can kill you. Neither Hitler nor Tojo would have hesitated turning America into glass. Nor will any tyrant or despot like that in Iran or North Korea of the same mindset.
In the vernacular “Let’s get real!” No one trusts America because of an utterly failed leadership that is in such disarray it cannot even secure our borders or ballots, a leadership that has plunged America into fathomless debt with no end in sight. There is Israel to face Iran, and China and Russia looking to their interests. There are the many nations like Mexico and Venezuela demanding blackmail of America with no end in sight to this extortion. The UN is so corrupt throughout there is no hope to be found there.
Here is my personal nightmare. The nations comprising the Security Council will gather and the question will be “Who can we trust?” The answer will be to try to forge alliances of nations that do not trust each other and then it will be a matter of who shoots first. And none of this will matter if that terrorist nuclear bomb goes off in America, none of this will matter if by design or accident missiles start flying anywhere in the world.
