North Korea has begun its media victory lap over its alleged hydrogen bomb detonation last week, publishing an avalanche of exultant editorials praising dictator Kim Jong-un and publishing a photo of Kim with the nation’s leading nuclear scientists.
The United Nations is vowing a “significant” response to North Korea’s claim that it successfully detonated a hydrogen bomb earlier this week, despite years of economic sanctions and arm sales bans doing little to deter the rogue nation’s aggressive behavior.
North Korea claims to have detonated a hydrogen bomb – as they described it, an “H-bomb of justice” – that would represent a massive escalation in the Communist dictatorship’s nuclear capability, putting them one major step closer to having weapons that can hit the continental United States.
China has summoned the North Korean ambassador in ire over reports circulating last night that North Korea had detonated a hydrogen bomb, flagrantly violating international law.
Russia will break ground on two new nuclear power plants in Iran next week, adding to Iran’s nuclear capacity, officials said, after a deal was signed last year in Moscow by the countries’ state-run atomic agencies.
North Korea does not like to be ignored for too long. The latest bid for attention from the nightmarish regime of Kim Jong-Un is the claim that his scientists have developed a hydrogen bomb, which would be a dramatic upgrade from the crude atomic weapons they have so far created.
During a meeting with his defense minister, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he “hoped” Russia does not need to use nuclear warheads against terrorists.
The nuclear deal agreed upon in July by the P5+1 world powers (US, UK, France, Germany, Russia, China) and the Islamic Republic of Iran has no “legally binding” basis. The deal, paraded by President Obama as a surefire measure to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, is held together simply as a “political commitment” by the parties to the accord, the State Department admitted in a recent letter.

Hillary Clinton originated at least six emails containing classified information, contrary to her spin that she was just a helpless unwitting recipient of material others should be blamed for compromising. Many of the messages contained information that was “born classified” – indisputably classified at the time Hillary sent or received them, under a 2009 executive order signed by President Obama, contrary to Clinton’s repeated false claims that none of her emails included information that was marked classified at the time she handled it. Some of these emails had to be redacted in their entirety before they could be released to the public.

Has there ever been a more spectacular performance of Republican “Failure Theater” than the Iran deal? Senator Bob Corker (R-TN), who long ago made it impossible for Congress to stop the deal, now comes forth to tell us Congress probably can’t stop the Iran deal, even as public opposition soars into solid majority territory, and more Democrats stage their own little Failure Theater sideshows of “conscience.”

The ANSWER Coalition, a well known far-left organization, is inviting Americans to join a “unique opportunity to travel to North Korea.” The group claims that the government-guided trip will show participants that “corporate-owned mainstream media” has “demonized” the country’s dictatorship, and that the United States of America should normalize relations with North Korea as it has done with Cuba.

The deal, which includes a lifting of most sanctions on Iran, is expected to greatly benefit the nation’s economy.

President Obama celebrated his monumental agreement with Iran over its nuclear program, adamantly defending the lengthy process that blew by several deadlines before finally concluding on Monday. “America negotiated from a position of strength and principle,” Obama said in an
As recently as 2010, US-Russian relations were improving. Achieving Ronald Reagan’s vision of a world without nuclear weapons seemed possible. Unfortunately, Russia’s deeds over the past year have dashed these hopes.
Much has been written about just how bad the proposed Iranian nuclear deal has gotten. This outcome is hardly surprising after Israel’s former ambassador to Washington, Michael Oren, bravely published Ally, his memoir detailing Obama’s hostility towards Israel. But even without Ambassador Michael Oren’s personal testimony, there is overwhelming evidence that – on the issue most important to global security and Israel’s very existence – Obama has been, at best, reckless and, at worst, treasonous.
The latest twist in the ongoing “Iranian nuclear deal” farce is the Associated Press report of a proposal to build top-of-the-line nuclear reactors for Iran if they will just agree to a nuclear weapons deal that does not humiliate President Obama. Iran, sensing weakness, isn’t biting on even this absurd proposal.
