As Rabbi Meir Kahane used to say, a Jewish fist must be attached to a Jewish head, and the same applies to Americans. After Clinton, Bush, and Obama all refrained from bombing North Korea’s nuclear facilities, there is no way that America would attack the communists in response to whatever provocation—and the communists understand that.

The United States commonly moves its aircraft carriers to the shores of Iran and North Korea, which saber-rattling looks good in domestic media but has no effect on the ayatollahs and communists.

Worse, America’s fake support prompts South Korea to provoke hostilities. The current round occurred when the South Koreans engaged in military exercises in the disputed waters—as if they have nowhere else to train.

No way do the Koreans need such capacity for their newly constructed small light-water reactor. Looking at the size, cost, and modern technologies involved, Iran is a probable customer.

The West knows the precise location of the North Korean facilities. They are not at all protected from air strikes, and can be destroyed with a handful of ballistic missiles. North Korea is an outcast with no way to retaliate. What except apocalyptical leanings prevents Obama’s administration—or Netanyahu’s, for that matter—from destroying these installations?

Everyone knows that North Korea engages in money laundering as the communist regime’s most productive activity. The US removed previous sanctions two years ago as a reward for the Koreans’ suspension of their nuclear program. Since then, North Korean nuclear development has been on and off, but mostly on.

America’s talks with North Korea on nuclear matters proceed secretly because their constant failure jeopardizes American credibility. The only ones who are fooled in this way are American voters: Iranian, Pakistani, and North Korean leaders know all the details of the talks.

The current round of sanctions is due to the failure of talks over the newly constructed light-water reactor. Sanctions are completely futile: North Korea will cover its losses from sanctions manifold by exporting nuclear technology.

In our opinion, Iran has outsourced much of its nuclear program to North Korea.

That strategy failed with Iran. The Ayatollahs ignored the Americans’ threat to install nuclear power reactors in nearly every neighboring Arab country.

Iran and North Korea are developing nuclear weapons, and are not competing forstatus with neighboring countries which are merely working on peaceful nuclear technologies.

The United States staged a much larger military show in the East Sea: an aircraft carrier, two hundred aircraft, and 8,000 troops conducting joint maneuvers with the South Koreans. Of course, the exercise will have no effect on North Korean whatsoever. Like the Iranians, they know that the American military behemoth lacks the willpower to smash their nuclear installations.

North Korea follows Assad’s maxim that there can be no regional peace with Syria: unable to wage a war, it engages in multitude of hostile activities. Thus, without a war, on the cheap, Syria secured the Israeli government’s de facto agreement to give back the Golan Heights. Impoverished and unable to wage a modern war with the South, North Korea stages hostile acts to keep the world powers at the negotiation table and secure foreign aid.

According to the Vienna draft, Iran would receive similar fuel rods, which it can also reprocess. The Russians have already supplied Iran with 80 tons of fuel rods for Bushehr.

Iran vacillates over the Vienna agreement: its various officials give contradicting replies. Iran needs to buy very little time to complete its nuclear cycle.

But now it’s too late. If a decision must be made to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons rather than siding with nuclear Iran against Egypt, Israel has no time to wait for an American showdown with North Korea.

North Korean leadership needs the bomb to ensure that the US won’t attempt to subvert their regime, especially as Kim’s 26-year-old son is slated to succeed him. The communists cannot comprehend that the West has grown too lazy to act even in the face of a nuclear threat, and therefore does not threaten the regime.

Given the links between North Korea and Iran, a successful test of a Korean uranium bomb means Iran has all the know-how necessary for manufacturing the weapon. The Koreans have very little supply of fissile material and would be loathe to waste it on tests.

Also, North Korea has hardly enough enriched uranium for a bomb; most of its stocks are of plutonium. Iran, on other hand, has plenty of enriched uranium.

It is highly likely that the Koreans are conducting the test in cooperation with Iran, which does not want to test its weapon on its territory. Thus, North Korean tests mean the completion of Iran’s nuclear program.

The communists understand that it is much easier to wrest concessions from Obama than from China or Russia. The North Koreans refuse disarmament, however, so the purpose of the talks is not clear.

Fearful of accepting responsibility, the Obama Administration refuses to engage in bilateral talks.
