Axis of Bomb-Building Brats

Posted By Claudia Rosett On March 23, 2007 @ 6:01 pm In Uncategorized | 4 Comments

It’s tantrum week for the Axis of Evil. North Korea’s Kim Jong Il is in a snit because he wants $25 million in unfrozen bank funds and he wants the money ^[1]… NOW! Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is having a fit because he wants dozens of visas so he and his retinue can jet to UN headquarters for a sanctions vote in New York and he wants those visas ^[2]… NOW!

You might think that the United States, with its unilateralist, imperialist, hyper-militarized, muscle-flexing, cowboy superpower ways would tell these totalitarian nuclear-bomb-loving thugs to take a hike, or at least take a number and get in line. But no. While they sulk, our own State Department has been hustling like crazy to get Kim his money ^[3] and Ahmadinejad his visas ^[4]. Is this a foreign policy with a future?
