I normally do not write about news/politics, but this whole North Korea issue is getting out of hand. Seemingly out of the blue, we found out that North Korea had tested nuclear weapons. Guess what happened!? Other countries got upset. Big surprize! Oh wait, what’s that, Iran was involved? According to this news article, “North Korea did have one defender yesterday. Iran, which the United States and its European allies say is running its own clandestine nuclear weapons program, said on its state radio that U.S. ‘pressure and humiliation’ had led North Korea to conduct the test.” It’s like the grade-school playground, “Despite numerous warnings from his peers, ten-year-old Kim went ahead and tested a firecracker he had somehow obtained from the Chinese kid.”

Ok, so at this point everyone is upset and watching North Korea and looking for a reason to blame Iran. Sure enough, both parties act-up. The media tells us that Korea is at it again! They are getting ready for another test. Next, Americans (all of us) found a ship! Supposedly this ship has “something bad” *cough*nuke*cough* on it. Oh, and, to just get everything setup perfectly we find out that “Iran [is] determined to become nuclear”. Quoting the story, “We will produce our own nuclear fuel over the next five years, and sell it to them at a 50-percent discount.”

I’ll go ahead and write the next news story for you:

North Korea buys discount Iranian Nuclear Fuel

Amidst sanctions, North Korea “just can’t afford better”
SOMEWHERE IN ASIA — North Korea allegedly purchased discounted nuke juice from Iran. Iran, long time friends with North Korea, said, “We really like trouble, so we broke them a deal”. North Korea said that its decision was not because they want to annihilate anyone, but simply because the UN sanctions made it too expensive to buy it from Al Qaeda.

Here is my prediction: Media will tell us that a nuke from North Korea flew but was shot down by our super space guns or missile defense warships. USA wont fire back, instead choosing to invade both Iran and North Korea. Soon enough we will have monopoly on the Middle East and a square in Asia. Our gas prices will drop, surging SUV sales, and everything will go back to normal.

What is really funny though, is even by the end of this post consumers have already forgotten about North Korea.
