Korean Liberation Day - August 15, 2005

Where is it all going?

"Beats me. If I did however have to make an analysis at the drop of a hat, it would warn that China is an 800 pound gorilla about ready to be set from its cage. Their currency changes in recent weeks tied more to a basket of currencies than the US dollar is the beginning of this economic change. Korea has opted for industrialization but without a service economy, this could collapse overnight as it has done before in the US (New England several times with textiles and most recently with the mini-computer industry and DOD at the end of the cold war).

Personally I believe North Korea is far more dangerous than people are willing to admit or at least say in public. There can be no other reason for their self-imposed exile than control of their people for some endgame that seems to me to be extremely Draconian. These people aren't nuts, they are however people scheming towards a perceived goal. What exactly that goal is however is the 64 million dollar question. Personally, I don't think military action against the south is improbable and actually quite probable. Nukes can buy you a lot of legitimacy and get people to listen to you....from negotiations to blackmail.

There was a recent James Bond movie with Pierce Brosnan as OO7 called 'Die Another Day' about a rogue North Korean regime and their desire to use terror weapons and tactics to achieve a political endgame. In this movie, like all movies, the good guys win and the bad guys loose. (Remember the winners write the history books..) Life however is not a Ronald Reagan movie and politics is played for keeps. The boys who are playing the game in Eurasia are playing for keeps as are the players here in East Asia. North Korea has an agenda and in my very humble opinion, from the outside looking in, it is very sinister and they will become pawns (maybe a bishop or knight now they have nukes) on the world's chess board. North Korea, like the fanatic Muslim suicide bomber is nothing more than an 'agent' for a bigger and more sophisticated player that uses fanatics as part of the end game. Their players are not governments as one might expect, but transnational, for lack of a better word.

Iran is now in the news again and is part of a very complex equation. It is a wildcard that could plunge the world into a deep abyss. Pakistan continues to push their weapons programs and is in the news daily. China and Russia are as well. Who will align themselves with Iran (axis of evil) and who will align themselves with North Korea (also a member of this infamous group)?

The US is making efforts to assist everyone that surrounds China or can balance their expansion into becoming the 'other' global power. The US has also 'surrounded' Iran as well with its military deployments. China is a good bet (the only bet actually as Russia to too corrupt and bankrupt to matter) to balance US imperial expansionism in Eurasia but how and where does that leave South Korea? (You might want to read the not so new book "THE GRAND CHESSBOARD - American Primacy And It's Geostrategic Imperatives," by Zbigniew Brzezinski ."

This is why I won't join in on the "guess what" N.Korea is up to, game.

The author who wrote these words first says he doesn't know what is going on or what will happen or what N.Korea is up to "Beats ME." He then goes on to state he does know.

Go figure.

And to put the cherry on this betty crocker cake - he recommends Brezinski!!! Well that would be another post but it says a lot.

I'm going to boot up my chessmaster and play the real thing. Does Kim Jong il play?

My recommendation is for the U.S. to NOT be their enemy. Just say, "we give up." let's be friends. Sit down, let's have tea and play chess.

Best thing they can do. This dog needs an enemy to keep barking at. Don't give them one...
