Employing military force in Iran and DPRK
Once again, the jaw-dropping arrogance of the West is on display for all to see. Iran and DPRK are not some territory or protectorate or US-controlled banana republics. They are independent countries, and as such have the right to enrich uranium if they so choose. The United States and many of its allies in the United Nations, including Great Britain, France, Russia, Pakistan, India and Israel all have nuclear weapons. How utterly arrogant it seems that these powers possess such weapons while at the same time are demanding that others should not. Any attempt to employ military force against Iran and DPRK will only result in yet another un-winnable war and in further development of nuclear weapons by emerging powers that refuse to be subdued any longer.
