The struggle for Korean nuclear independence is extremely relevant for the Middle East, and first of all, for the Iranian nuclear project. The Judeo-American interests want to turn North Korea into an example for Iran. They wish to do something nasty to not-too-relevant Korea so that Iran will fall in line.
But a nuclear Iran is likely to check Israeli warmongers and force Israel to proceed with peace process.
The balance of fear, or MAD (mutual assured destruction) is still the only way to deal with the Israeli-American threat. MAD. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutually_assured_destruction
CHOSEN NUKES
By Israel Adam Shamir

Fry and Laurie (or Laurel and Hardy) could do it nicely:
_ The Chosen have got nukes. They've gone nuclear!
_ Well, is that news? Israel has had hundreds of nuclear bombs for some twenty years, according to Vanunu, but only antisemites ever mention it.
_ Sorry, I did not mean the Chosen People, I mean the People of the Chosen, and “Chosen” is the Korean name for North Korea.
_ The Chosen? How dare they challenge the international community! Where do these Chosen men get off thinking that they are chosen?
The successful underground nuclear test in North Korea unleashed a huge wave – a wave of hypocrisy, that is. The state with by far the largest nuclear arsenal in the world, the country that has already used A-bombs against civilians, the US, expressed its outrage.
U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice said, “The United States thinks that this is a grave violation of international law and a threat to regional and international peace and security and therefore the United States will seek a strong resolution with strong measures.”
According to Rice, it is not invasion, it is not occupation, it is not aggression, but rather it is arming oneself against a very probable invasion, aggression and occupation that violates international law.
Nor did she remind us of a well-forgotten fact: for many years it was North Korea that called for turning the whole of Korean peninsula into nuclear-weapons-free zone, and it was the US that insisted on having its nukes on North Korea’s doorstep.
North Korea, or the Chosen in its own language, is a country of indomitable men and women. They are strong, independent and hard-working. They shake hands with an iron grip. Their names are short, their cabbage is fiery, their national pride knows no limits – and for good reason: they fought against the US in its prime, and survived the worst onslaught ever engineered by Man.
Think Dresden, multiply by Gaza and add Iraq to equal Korea in the 1950s.
The US and its satraps dropped more bombs on this small mountainous country than they had dropped on Germany.
General Douglas Macarthur wanted to nuke them, but Harry Truman stopped him: there were no objects worth nuking, for every single standing man-made structure had already been destroyed.
The Korean War was mass murder writ large: millions of Koreans were killed, burned by napalm, shot and executed by the Americans and their allies. (Dont le Canada!)
Any Korean village's death rate could compete with that of Auschwitz.
The Koreans survived and rebuilt their country. But the massive bombing took a heavy toll on the people’s psyche.
A nation will never be the same after saturation bombing, any more than will an individual who has been gang raped.
Usually they break down into total submission for a generation (that is why gang rape is the prisoners’ way to assume control over a disobedient inmate), so did Serbs, so did Germans, so did the Japanese after being sodomised by US bombs.
The Koreans’ own post-traumatic syndrome consisted of withdrawal, extreme self-reliance and endless fear of another attack.
This fear was well-grounded in reality: US troops and bases still occupy the south of the Korean peninsula.
More importantly, the US has carried out relentless sanctions warfare against unvanquished, independent Korea. This well-developed strategy of blockade was utilised with great success against Iraq and Cuba, and now Americans plan to use it against Iran.
Noam Chomsky correctly defined the US strategy: never give up; keep destroying countries which do not submit by all means possible including economic warfare.
Korea was willing to dismantle its nuclear facilities, provided that the US would cease its economic warfare.
They signed an agreement and closed down the reactor, but the US reneged on the agreement and turned up its hostilities.
Korea would not let American companies take over its economy, and that is why the US and its satellites kept impounding Korean bank accounts and interfering with its trade.
The imperial media were kept busy churning out dreadful stories (actually, regurgitated anti-Communist urban legends from McCarthy’s days) about starving Koreans under commies’ yoke.
When the people of South Korea began to express their wish to unite with the independent North, South Korea was robbed by the Mammonites who engineered the great Tiger crisis of 1997.
Everything you are experiencing now, during the 2009 crisis, the South Koreans went through twelve years ago.
Their great economy was broken to pieces and bought for peanuts by the trans-nationals.
President GW Bush (or his speechwriter David Frum) designated Korea, next to Iraq and Iran, as part of the Axis of Evil.
In this situation, the Koreans were right to develop the ultimate weapon of defence.
A Korean and Iranian nuclear deterrent would be a defensive shield for these independent countries.
Korea is not taking it lying down. This rather small and far away country, enfeebled by blockade and sanctions, contributes more than its fair share to the most important battle over Palestine.
The Koreans, who suffered so much from the American-imposed siege, do help besieged Gaza and other neighbours of the Jewish state to acquire weapons.
Using the nuclear issue as a pretext, the pro-Israel Lobby pushed for the decision to search all Korean shipping.
They also orchestrated a vast public campaign in the mass media, uniting anti-Communists and nuke-fearing pacifists against socialist Korea.
We are supposed to be afraid of Korean A-bombs and call upon Obama and Netanyahu to disarm the rebels.
God knows I am a peaceful man, but I'm not a pacifist.
Weapons are needed to defend people from Israeli-American state terrorism.
A so-called pacifist who supports American and Israeli attempts to maintain their monopoly on nuclear arms is, in my book, just another supporter of the Judeo-American war machine.
If he is an honest man, let him call for the disarmament of the Chosen Peoples of Israel and America, and postpone dealing with the Chosen people of Korea and the Iranians until after Dimona is dismantled and American nukes are turned into ploughshares.
The struggle for Korean nuclear independence is extremely relevant for the Middle East, and first of all, for the Iranian nuclear project. It is true that Iran is not seeking military application for its nuclear industry, being perfectly content with peaceful energy.
However, the Judeo-American interests want to turn North Korea into an example for Iran. They wish to do something nasty to not-too-relevant Korea so that Iran will fall in line.
Obama could settle with Korea at the quite reasonable price of stopping the interference with its life. Sign a peace treaty, stop the threats, remove the sanctions, terminate the campaign of hate. The Koreans would pay for normalisation of their relationship with the US by giving up their nuclear facilities.
This would be a pity. A pity for Koreans who deserve, like everybody else, to live their lives the way they like.
The Israeli media published a poll claiming that “some 23 percent of Israelis would consider leaving the country if Iran obtains a nuclear weapon”.
The idea is to push the US and Europe into a frenzy of anti-Iranian action, for no country would like to absorb two million Israeli refugees.
This is the secret Doomsday weapon of Zionist propaganda: if pushed hard, we’ll just go back to your countries and you are not going to like it.
However, the fine print in this survey shows that this fear of Iran is spread mainly among suggestible Israelis, 39 percent of women as opposed to 22 percent of men – they swallowed their government's propaganda -- hook, line and sinker.
Paradoxically for us Israelis, nuclear Iran represents hope for peace, not a threat to it.
Our greatest danger lies in the aggressive tendency of our generals and politicians.
There is need for a counterbalance, for a great and powerful state that would keep our [Israeli] hawks in check.
Since Iraq was subdued by the US army and Egypt by political means, Israeli generals have gone to war every two years.
Only a nuclear Iran is likely to check Israeli warmongers and force Israel to proceed with peace process.
No sane Israeli expert, not even an extreme hawk, believes that a nuclear Iran would endanger or threaten Israel. Israel is too powerful, perfectly capable of delivering a deadly second strike.
But this mind-boggling freedom of action the Israeli military enjoys would be gone, and that would be a good thing.
The balance of fear, or MAD (mutual assured destruction) is still the only way to deal with the Israeli-American threat.
This was the reason for the martyrdom of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg; by helping the USSR to build their nuclear bomb they saved uncounted millions from horrible death, even at the price of their own life.
