Russia is doing it. Twice in the last two days, Dmitry (actually Vlad) fired a strategic missile from the nuclear submarine Briansk. Nikolai Makarov, the head of Russia's general staff, said "the launch was a success according to all the parameters." The missile that was fired has a range of 5,580 miles. Quite the delivery system. Something President Obama has pinky promised with Medvyedevadev to depleat in our arsenal.
Even the French are doing it. According to DefenseNewsTV.com, France remains committed to maintaining its defense budget and pursuing its mission in Afghanistan despite the pressure caused by the economic slowdown, President Nicolas Sarkozy said. This while Great Leader is working on a plan to get the hell out of Afghanistan. France will be investing 377 billion euros ($527 billion) in new gear for its armed forces over the next 12 years in order to maintain and improve their capacity to take on 21st-century conflicts. Not a paltry sum by French standards.
Sarkozy said, "we are not going to allow the return of the Taliban, who cut off the hands of young girls who wore nail varnish, who decided that girls couldn't go to school, who shut up women in the burka, who stoned so-called adulterers. We can't allow that," Seems quite honorable to me.
On the other hand, take a look at what the US is doing under the leadership of the greatest community organizer evah. This from the Center For Security Policy. http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/p18118.xml
The nuclear arsenal that has been built up over the last 64 years in America, has kept us all safe. Just by it's being, rogue nations throughout the world have discarded their ambitions of dominating their neighbors, if not the world. All that, and now Mr Obama wants to throw it all away for his obsession (and it is an obsession) of a nuclear free world. Ahhhhh. Can't you smell the daisies?
Now, President Obama wants us to permanently end all nuclear testing by ratifying the unverifiable (yes - UNVERIFIABLE) Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). Testing that the Ruskies have been doing with vigar to this day. 'O' also dismisses that the Senate rejected this 'idea' over a decade ago.
Grab all the rocks you can find and sharpen all your sticks. Soon, that's all we'll have available to defend ourselves.

What's It Going To Take?
What's it going to take Mr President? North Korea has a rocket aimed directly at Hawaii. They want to fire it on our Independence Day. The 4th of July!!! You know their history of creating havoc on our holidays.
Defense Secretary Robert Gates said he has ordered the U.S. military to take defensive measures should North Korea attempt to fire a ballistic missile toward Hawaii. He has also said that “I think we are in a good position, should it become necessary, to protect American territory.” You THINK??? WTF??? Our Defense Secretary thinks we're in a good position. I want a DS that KNOWS we are in a good position. A good position is to see those missiles in piles of rubble.
Intelligence analysts do not believe the device, a Taepodong-2, would be capable of hitting Hawaii's main islands, which are 4,500 miles from North Korea. It is believed (believed???) to have a range of 4,400 miles. The survivors of the bombing of Pearl Harbor will be glad to know that our President and Defense Secretary "think" and "believe" they will be safe.
Protesters in Iran are risking their lives for just a little scrap of independence, but our President doesn't want to publicly support them because he doesn't want the US to be the issue. My belief is he doesn't have a freakin clue as to what might happen and doesn't want to be on the wrong side.
What should happen is the President should stand up and proclaim his allegiance to the people of Iran that are fighting for freedom. I don't think the people at GQ would be too upset with him if he did.
Both, Iran and North Korea, have made huge strides in their nuclear programs in the short time the O has been in office. What's he done about either? He's gone overseas to tell them that's naughty and to honor their culture. That didn't stop em. He's gotten an agreement from other nations that if NK tries to ship nukes, or nuclear stuff, we're going to tell them to pull over so we can check their cargo. And if they don't, we're going to be really, really mad. All that stuff they're flying all over the world, and all that stuff they're moving through China, well, we're not going to do anything about that......but we're going to be upset.
Both countries have fired test missile after test missile without more than a nastygram from Great Leader.
Israel has done what they could to stop the spread of nuclear weapon technology to threatening countries, (ala that big hole in the ground in Syria) of course with a cautious gaze from the US. They wanted to go in to blow Iran's program sky high but Bushy/Messiah wouldn't have any of that. How dare they protect their existence?
These are just two of the terrorist enabling countries that will do anything they want to bully freedom loving, or weak countries around. These are just two countries that should have been taught lessons, right from the beginning, that aggressions on other peoples will not be tolerated.
That's all over and done with now, as far as Iran and North Korea are concerned. They are quickly reaching the point of no return. That point, as of yet, hasn't been determined. What point is that? What will it take, Mr President, for you to grow a pair?
Oh, did I mention we're making huge cuts to our military, especially our missile defense?

That Transparency Thing
From the Wall Street Journal 6/3/2009 titled "Nuclear Sites Posted Online Accidentally" By Stephen Power and Jonathan Weisman ( http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124400117312880465.html )
Apparently a government office accidentally made public a report that gave detailed information about the United State's civilian nuclear sites and programs.
"The report, which includes maps of facilities showing the locations of stockpiles of fuel for nuclear weapons at those facilities, was posted last month on the Web site of the Government Printing Office. It was removed from the site late Tuesday, after the Federation of American Scientists reported on the document's existence Sunday in an online bulletin."
The Obama administration made an agreement to encourage other countrys to comply with a decade old international agreement to provide the International Atomic Energy Agency with information on all nuclear related activity.
The report that was made public was marked "Highly Confidential Safeguards Sensitive". I don't know about you, but I might have gotten that cleared or declassified before putting it on a public government web site. Better yet, not at all.
" The list details the existence of nuclear facilities at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee, Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois and a Westinghouse research facility in Pittsburgh, among others."
I'm thinking, any group (terrorist) that is monitoring government web sites may have already downloaded the information as it was posted for nearly a month. But hey, don't worry. Fearless leader's gang says it didn't jeopardize national security so, don't worry about it.
