Politicians, Like Generals, Have A Tendency To

The Real Issue Of Dealing With Proliferation Of Weapons Of Mass Destruction: Nuclear, Chemical Or Biological Is: What Is Your Tolerance For Risk? And My Tolerance For Risk For Wmd Proliferation Is Pretty Close To Zero. Because Otherwise, We And Our Allies Are At The Mercy Of Regimes Like Ahmadinejad And The Mullahs In Tehran, Or Kim Jong Il And The Hitler-in-the-bunker Mentality In Pyongyang, Or Others Who Don't Share Our Calculus On The Value Of Human Life.

The Solution To North Korea Is The Reunification Of The Korean Peninsula. China Could Influence The North; It Supplies 80 To 90 Percent Of North Korea's Energy. The United States Have To Put Pressure On China In Order For China To Pressure North Korea.

I Think The International Criminal Court Could Be A Threat To American Security Interests, Because The Prosecutor Of The Court Has Enormous Discretion In Going After War Crimes.

I Wouldn't Give Up On Russia, And With Oil At $90 A Barrel, They Can Refurbish Their Strategic Capabilities And Under An Authoritarian Regime, Those Nuclear Weapons Are Still There And In The Wrong Hands We Might Have A Problem Again.

If Iran Obtains Nuclear Weapons, Then Almost Certainly Saudi Arabia Will Do The Same, As Will Egypt, Turkey And Perhaps Others In The Region.
