The North Korean Threat - Korean Crisis 2

Telegraph: Reports the following on North Korea, " Analysts believe that the North could launch 500,000 rounds of ammunition on the South within the first hour of an attack... ". 

Lets Get Real: 

The North COULD cause massive death and destruction to the South folks, but it would lead to the end of the North Korean Regime, the US would wipe out the North, China its ally would find its on holiday, anything as long as it does not have support its suppose ally, also it would have to deal with a flood of North Korean Refugees over its border, it would be a nightmare.   Thus the above is not going to happen, in less the Stalinist North Korean Regime wants to kill itself off, the hard and bloody way.   One can see the hot rhetoric as a bad strategy to get the US back in to talks and for the usual blackmail, e.g the North goes back in to its box as long as the US and its Allies feed the poor people of the North, the problem is as stated in this blog and in other sources the worry that if the Oval looks weak with the North the infection could make Israel worry that the Oval will be weak with Iran when the time comes, also the lack of US action of Syria means that the Oval has to be tough with North Korea, the Oval is weak folks, but its gets other people killed, over seventy thousand in Syria at the moment, and the million of Refugees in Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey, etc,.     The Oval will be tough with North Korea, if no other reason it has no choice, when you have no choice it takes the pressure off in many respects.   The crazy North Koreans can splutter all  they like, NO DEAL FOLKS. 

North Korean Update - Korean Crisis

Guardian: Reports on the latest North Korea threat, " ..Pyongyang threatened to shut down a vital factory complex run jointly by the two countries... ".

Lets Get Real:

This shows how silly the North Korea threat is folks, the North needs this factor complex for foreign currency so it can buy treats for the Regime and fund its nuclear ambitions, and the end of the day the Oval is right, this a rhetorical threat at best, its for show, also clever, its Easter Week, so it gets more attention, as on the whole reporters and bloggers have better things to do, have a holiday, thus to fill the airwaves they stress this story.   In less the Oval and this blog is wrong, the Pyongyang Regime can be told to get lost, they are not going to do anything, they can not risk that the new South Korea President will act if South Korea is attacked, either on the mainland or one of its Islands.   Also the US has made it plain that the US will support its Asian ally, the North must be aware that China will not back them should they go mad, so a non story folks.   It would not surprise this blog if the North set off another nuclear test, or another ICBM, but that ALL that is going to happen folks, North Korea is all talk no cattle as they say in great State of Texas. 

The Bells of Saint John - Doctor Who Review

Sidebar 1: As this blog covers North Korea, Syria, Iran Israel, US Politics, its not a light blog read, as its Easter lets have some fun. 

The Doctor Who News Page: Reports that Doctor Who was the top drama on Saturday night, it has 6.18 million viewers in the overnight ratings ( lets recall this should go up with the those that have recorded the show ), now lets review the show.

Lets Get Real: 

It was a great show to introduce the new companion Clara, for the 3rd time, and she got to live this time, it was also subtle that Clara was not the minx of the previous two intros, she wanted adventure but felt she had to look after a family, the Clara of the previous two incarnations gave the impression that she had been around with the Doctor in way, always seeking adventure, without quite knowing why she had such vigour for adventure, as an example, you can see Clara's computer skills take shape from this episode, thus go back and watch the 1st show folks.    This makes Clara quite a mystery, who is she, how could she place herself  is so many different time streams, with the knowledge to help the Doctor without knowing him, if you see what I mean folks, also watch the Christmas special, the caring side of Clara as a nanny.   Clara very interesting character.  

Thus every day use of wi - fi was given a horror dimension, the Internet was seen as a place to steal the souls of people, great twitter joke, who cares what kind of breakfast you have, or your latest romantic adventures,  the show also had a dark side, it releasing Clara the Doctor knew that some people had no bodies to go back too, thus they were dead, what is life you might ask, would you live forever in the internet, making your own world up, how depressing is that, life is about the real world, living, as the 9th Doctor said, having fun in Paris.  Great start to next eight weeks.   Also some great news last night, the 10th Doctor and Rose are coming back for the 50th Special, does life get any better, yes it would have a TARDIS, go back and record ALL those shows wiped by the BBC Taliban in the 60s and 70s.
