#1 TOPIX > NORTH KOREA WAITING FOR THE NEW ADMINISTRATION + ASIA TIMES: ASIA'S HIDDEN ARMS RACE + US:NORTH KOREA STILL A NUCLEAR THREAT + US DEEMS NEW NK SHORT RANGE MISSLE A THREAT. The NK "Doksa".

Considering how closely NK + Iran have acted in parallel thus far, prob safe to say that what happens in one will be seen again in the other??? e.g. AFGHAN SPRING > TALIB-ISLAMIST THREAT TO RENEW/BEGIN NEW INSURGENCT ACTIONS = NORTH KOREA???

#4 Whoa! Fulda Gap, here we come! Hello, 3rd Shock Army!

Short of going nuke right off the bat, I doubt the ~~Soviets~~ Russkies are going to make it through Poland first. The Poles performance in Iraq and Afghanistan certainly show far more promise of military competency than Russian skill shown in Chechnya. The Poles remember. The Poles will fight and fight hard.

#5 Wouldn't it be ironic if the Redish Army liberated Eurabia a few decades from now.

Europe could use some Russian spine and Russia could use some European civilization. They really are a match made for each other.
