You're at the more extreme end of the spectrum with NK though, no?

It might be at the extreme end of the spectrum, but still, Kim the dim has factions to assuage like any other leader..   Look at Teresa May at the minute.

Doesn't know which way to turn to appease one side or the other...

 

Only in Kims case the stakes are life and death..  if he rubs up the wrong people the wrong way, he's a dead man walking..

They wouldn't see that coming and once the masses have tasted the forbidden fruits of Western capitalism, not only will they come to realise the inequities and unfairness of the oppressive system that suppresses them, but, double bonus, once hooked, we open up a massive post-brexit market!

 

Hooray for capitalism, buy shares in Cadbury!!  

Or we could just do nothing, thats always an option..

 

Let them have a bomb, after a while it'll dawn on them that having a bomb hasn't changed anything or ether will do. perhaps then they might just decide that the only change they're gonna get is one where people rise up and make a stand..

 

After the dust settles, we tell em they can access to every luxury in the world, only they have to get rid of their bombs to get access..  

 

Its what I believe the Chinese mean by applying strategic patience..

If only it was still Cadbury's, MrJ..
Shares in Kraft are what you would have to buy now...
I don't think carpet bombs made of plastic cheese would have the same effect somehow

Nice idea though!

Alas I don't think hooking them on free world crack (Mc Donalds, BMW's, Designer Italian labels) will work, unleashing the masses also unleashes the opportunists, the political extremists, etc. Just look at Russia.

For MarkJ..

 

Seems I was right about about the far left being fascists.. apparently the FBI has classed Antifar as domestic terrorists, accusing them of being the instigators of violence at a number of events..

 

US security officials have classified the left-wing group Antifa as "domestic terrorists", confidential documents have revealed. 

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has reportedly been warning about the growing threat of violence between left-wing anarchists and right-wing nationalists since 2016, amid claims Antifa's activity has become more confrontational, according to documents seen by Politico.

 

 

Seems its official, your side are now the official Nazi's of our day..

There you go Ti, spoiling a simple, yet cunning, plan with the global corporate realities of modern Western capitalism....

 

Darn it, back to the drawing board!

Morning MrJ,
I wonder if they like cheese slices and chocolate in Iran?
The ayatollah must be looking on at how NK seems to be mugging the UN and US off right now and rubbing their hands together.
A paranoid madman with nukes is one thing......
An expansionist, hardline, Islamic nation with global "messianic" designs already developing nukes and ICBM's is quite another prospect.

I wish people would be clearer in their posts. 

 

Are you meaning NK or Trump? How did we end up with a reality tv star of dubious morals, ethics and intelligence as Commander in Chief of one of the worlds largest nuclear powers?

 

I suppose it could have been worse, the writers could have elected to use Krusty the Clown or Mr Burns in that episode instead
