Heads I Win, Tails You Lose.

Well, the South Koreans have spoken. In national elections, they decided that confrontation with North Korea wasn't such a good idea. Too many South Koreans are comfortable with the wealth they are accumulating to jeopardize it by rattling any sabers at North Korea where, admittedly, the leader is a little wannabe littler Hitler. Kim Jung IL may be small of stature, but he is small of mind to go along with it. It seems he's got only one thing on his mind. To make up for his size, he's got a massive military that he'd like to use. He's jealous of the South and he wants to punish them for his jealousy. How dast the south be better off then the north? How dast they get upset if he wants to sink a ship or two of theirs? It's his right. Right? Ya know, it's easy to make fun of a guy like that. It's easier yet to overlook him and think you're better and smarter and richer then he is, but there is one small problem with that. Give him an inch and he'll take a mile, my mom used to say. She wasn't always right, but she was pretty often right. So, did the South Koreans make a mistake in choosing to let it go, or should they have gone after sanctions? I mean, hey, if you let a guy like this push you around and sink your rubber ducky, what's he going to sink next? Other than his own economy. Which he already did a long time ago.
