Iran testing nuclear bomb in North Korea?

The South Korean Foreign Ministry Institute submitted a report on December 24th, that North Korea was planning to test another nuclear weapon at the beginning of the year. Since the artillery attack last month between the two Korean nations, South Korea has also reported that North Korea is digging a tunnel for that specific purpose of carrying out nuclear testing.

But there is more fun nuclear news! The cozy relationship of the Kim Jong-Il dictatorial government and the equally insane Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has become more closer than ever before. It has been no secret that Iran and North Korea have developed relations with one another to accomplish their nuclear ambitions, including selling Iran nuclear technology, which includes ways to build Shahab-3 ballistic missiles. In fact, several scientists from Iran have recently headed to North Korea to agree to a nuclear test and have apparently paid money to its government to do so.

What should make this situation even more important to the people in Washington? Well, Fox News had a rather alarming report today that WikiLeaks has released cables that indicate Iran has advanced missiles that could carry nuclear warheads, enough to target every single capital city in Western Europe.

Now, we have two of former President Bush's"axis of evil", which by the way that the United States chose not to deal with years ago, and now for the first time they've been working on nuclear collaboration and quite frankly, very public about it. The enriched uranium in North Korea and their more violent approaches as of late, should give everyone a very clear indication that something bad is going to most likely happen on the horizon. It is quite clear that North Korea's uranium will also help Iran in the long term, which explains why Iran is wanting to test its nuclear bombs in North Korea.

Iran as it continues to defy the United Nations over its nuclear project and it does not seem to be bothered at all over the sanctions the UN has imposed against it. Any country in the Middle East that has a nuclear weapon which they can turn around and sell to a terrorist group, should set off alarm bells everywhere, and this upcoming nuclear test that Iran wants to hold in North Korea should be the final wake up call.

North Korea backing off... for now

Despite constant warnings to cease South Korean military drills, North Korea has apparently demonstrated a sudden change of heart.

Last month, North Korea opened fire on the island of Yeonpyeong, which killed several South Korean civilians and military personnel, resulting in an intensified military response by the South. North Korea warned South Korea that if they continued their military drills, they would not hesitate in attacking.

But it seems all of that changed today when North Korea stated that they would not attack, instead going back to the negotiating table with the South, China and the U.S, after a visit from New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, who is also a former envoy to North Korea and former Ambassador to the United Nations.

While Governor Richardson believes that there have been positive developments between North and South Korea, there is still some speculation as to whether this is just another farce from North Korea, by telling the world that they will not retaliate, letting the tensions cool for a while and then orchestrating a devastating attack on the South. The North is also in a regime change from its supreme leader Kim Jong-il, handing over the dictatorship to his son, Kim Jong-un.

The top concern of North Korea is of course their nuclear program. Enriched uranium was discovered in one of North Korea's plants last month after a shocking visit by an American scientist. The uranium is of course for their nuclear bombs, which are to be used against South Korea. The efforts to stop North Korea's nuclear ambitions has been met with failure over and over again, and UN sanctions are not doing anything either.

But in the interim, the good news is that North Korea will back down from retaliation against South Korea. But the real lingering question is any surprise future attack from the North?

Maybe this time, it will be a nuclear bomb.

Is Obama keeping U.S. safe from a “new” nuclear war and terror?

What is obviously continuing to be an escalating global threat, it was confirmed yesterday that North Korea has enriched uranium for its nuclear facilities. The news apparently sent shockwaves through Washington, yet some U.S. Officials were not entirely surprised by the situation… Well, the ones that were not surprised, at least understand that we’ve only been warned about North Korea’s anticipated progress on advancing its nuclear ambitions for fifteen years, or more. Yet nothing was ever done, except sign a piece of paper with the United Nations.

Back in June 2009 while in France, President Obama was asked at a press conference about North Korea and its relationship with Iran concerning their nuclear ambitions. The President seemed rather evasive on addressing the issue and could not clearly answer the United States’ policy with North Korea specifically, although he ended his statement by saying:

“I don’t think that there should be an assumption, that we will simply continue down a path in which North Korea is constantly destabilizing the region, and we just react the same ways by after they do these things after a while, we reward them.”

Well, why don’t we stop assuming Mr. President? After all, North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il has shown a clear defiance all this time, and violated its resolution with the United Nations. That should be enough of an indicator that they are one step further in expanding their program.

But North Korea, continuing its nuclear plans is just the tip of the iceberg. The United States has feared North Korea intention to sell missiles and nuclear technology to Iran. Even more terrifying, is the notion of North Korea ,possibly one day selling any of its nuclear programs to al-Qaeda, something that the terrorist network would absolutely love to get its hands on.

Iran has actually continued its operations out of the Middle East, in moving forward in establishing their nuclear plans. Now, the country is apparently mining for uranium in Venezuela. Russia agreed earlier this year, to help Venezuela build a nuclear reactor plant, and continued its relationship in assisting Iran. Over the course of the last several years, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad have meet with each other in their respective countries to discuss their plans, with Venezuela actually allowing Iran to take over a mining site within its own country to obtain uranium.

Incidentally, on Chavez’s numerous trips to Iran in the last two years, he also began subsidizing the Militant Islamic group Hezbollah in Lebanon, while continuing to work in conjunction with Iran on its nuclear programs. 

Why in the world would a Latin American President be giving money to an organization bent on destroying the United States and Israel?

The commonality of these three countries is based on the fact that they have been working to create a nuclear program that could threaten the safety of the world. Taking into consideration Chavez’s relationship with Hezbollah, which in itself has ties with al-Qaeda and Iran’s relationship with North Korea, which in turn could sell its missiles or weapons to al-Qaeda, paints a very disturbing picture as to what the United States is doing to seriously address this matter.

President Obama has done little when has come to moving forward on solutions to force North Korea and Iran to dismantle their nuclear plans, and is reluctant to admit putting sanctions against Venezuela and its connections to Iran and Middle East terrorist organizations.

The President also seems to be very reluctant to admit that al-Qaeda has moved its breeding grounds to North Africa in the Sahara desert, since the terrorist network has felt increasing heat to move away from Pakistan and Yemen. In September, al-Qaeda kidnapped five French nationals in Niger, and are currently holding them hostage. As of yesterday, al-Qaeda is reportedly demanding that France pull its troops out of Afghanistan if they want to see the hostages released. This, at the height of the NATO summit last week, which its topic of discussion was pulling out of Afghanistan by 2014.

Here’s a side recommendation to the French Government: If they are successful in getting its citizens out of the hands of al-Qaeda, then they should step up and use their own nuclear weapons as a primary defense in the war on terror, along with the United States. One problem resolved. Wouldn’t want to see all of that nuclear testing in the French Polynesian ocean near the Tahitian Moruroa Atoll go to waste.

But these are continuous escalating global threats. I would question President Obama as to how serious he is on taking affirmative action against these countries nuclear plans and the continuation of the threat from al-Qaeda in order to protect the United States, with the assistance of our allies. He can either get the United States to move on these problems; or simply just do what he said in his speech back in June of 2009, and just let them do their thing and reward them later.

This is probably the biggest world threat since the end of the Cold War, and this is not the extension of it, but rather something much worse.

Ahmadinejad says Iran’s nuclear rights are non-negotiable

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the President of Iran said on Wednesday that Iran is moving ahead on its atomic nuclear program, and made it very clear that it was non-negotiable. In the past month, many countries including the United States, France, Russia, Germany and China have all indicated concerns about Iran’s nuclear program based in Tehran.

Well, at least the United States is continuing to show concern over Iran’s nuclear program. You may recall back in 2003, when President Bush took the United States into Iraq, that he was under the impression from the CIA that Iraq had Weapons of Mass Destruction.

It turns out that of course was not the case, but now we have Iran, being in a position to establish its nuclear plans with the support of technological nuclear exports from North Korea, and probably thinly subsidized by internationalists that want to destroy America.

What is interesting here, is how much outcry there was in 2003 when President Bush took us into Iraq, and now when you have Iraq’s neighbor in a position to move forward with its plans that could threaten the safety of the United States and the rest of world, you seem to hear very little concern of this issue especially in the mainstream news media.

While Ahmadinejad says that Iran’s mission is to establish a peaceful nuclear program, the real concern is again, how serious Iran is with relation to what they claim is peaceful. Ahmadinejad has stated that he is willing to have rational discussions with world leaders, but will not tolerate any country violating Iran’s rights.

The United Nations, which opposes Iran’s nuclear program showing defiance of UN policies, wants more transparency with Ahmadinejad. Perhaps the UN should implement the same memorandum they issued to Iraq, which was to disclose or face serious consequences, and the President to stand up for the American people and tell the truth of what is happening over there in Iran.

Everyone in this country knows that Iran and they’re neighbors in Afghanistan and Pakistan; want nothing more than to see the end to Israel and the United States. For President Ahmadinejad to speak at the UN in September, criticize the United States and say that the 9/11 terrorist attacks was the fault of the U.S. Government, demonstrates that he is harboring a haven for the threats in the Middle East, and to carry out his plan to develop this program that is going to threaten the rest of the world.

What the world leaders at the UN should have done is allow President Ahmadinejad to make his point, tar and feather him, and run him the hell out on a rail.

The United States needs to start addressing this matter more closely when it comes to foreign policy. While this country continues to suffer from just about everything, from unemployment, to the economic crisis and unfavorable policies set forth by President Obama, these matters escalated in the Middle East, should be added to his ‘top five’ concerns.

I would also like to say Happy Veteran’s Day to all of our men and women serving in uniform.
