Conservative Talk

-- Thomas Sowell

Why North Korea’s Nuke Test is Such Good News

Published by Rod D. Martin October 16th, 2006 filed under WMDs, Missile Defense, Korea, Foreign Policy/National Security, War on Terror, Rod D. Martin, Defense Policy, TheVanguard.Org

Comments

Dr. Jack Wheeler writes: “The public face of Bush Administration officials regarding North Korea’s nuclear test is a mask of utter seriousness, or “grave concern.” Behind the mask, folks are laughing their heads off.

Michael Barone: A New Narrative

Published by Rod D. Martin September 11th, 2006 filed under Media, Iraq, WMDs, Democrats, George W. Bush, Rod D. Martin, Defense Policy, War on Terror, TheVanguard.Org

Comments

It took George W. Bush to bring Qadaffi to heel. After Bush chased Saddam Hussein out of Baghdad and into a spider hole, Qadaffi called up Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and told him he didn’t want to end up like Saddam.

Shah’s Son Calls on America: Don’t Bomb Iran

Published by Rod D. Martin March 29th, 2006 filed under Iran, WMDs, Foreign Policy/National Security, War on Terror, Rod D. Martin, Defense Policy, TheVanguard.Org

Comments

The Shah’s son has come out against any bombing of Iran, which seems like a reasonable position for him to take (and he was being reasonable when he said it), even if it ultimately proves to be the wrong policy. This successor to a line of kings going back to Bible times certainly doesn’t want any more destruction and death coming to his homeland than necessary, and frankly, neither do we.
