l'il kim and the bomb

Here’s my question about North Korea and its nuclear ambitions.

Why should we care? What does it have to do with us? Isn’t this really more China and Japan’s problem? Seoul’s problem?

Couldn’t we just tell the leaders of North Korea, China, Russia, Japan, and – what the heck – any and all other world leaders that the U.S. wishes them luck in dealing with L'il Kim and his baby nukes.

Just tell them we’re out of the international policing business in this case. You guys figure out what to do with him because Team America is busy blowing away people in another part of the world. And frankly, we're tired of being the Great Satan.

And oh… by the way, we hope it’s understood that if any of his nuclear pottage blows up in the United States, regardless of who might have set it off, a rain of nuclear fire will descend almost immediately upon any and all nations the US does not consider a friend. So all you America bashers better pray every day that nothing happens to Washington, New York, or any other American city, because if it does, there will be, ahem, recriminations.
