Iran Watches Us Deal with North Korea

RUSH: Snerdley and I were talking about the North Koreans and their test. There is going to be a sanctions vote tomorrow, and once again, ladies and gentlemen, we have been shafted by the Russians and the Chinese. The vote on sanctions is tomorrow, and Fox had a little breaking news story this morning saying that an arms embargo will not be added to UN resolutions. There will be no ban on where the NorComs can fly in the resolution. I mean this is really watered down stuff, to be voted on tomorrow morning. 

Now, all of this is supposed to deter North Korea? All of this is supposed to deter Iran? Make no mistake about something on this: The Iranians are watching all this very carefully, just as they were watching the Israeli-Hezbollah war. (They probably started that one just to check everybody’s resolve.) I did an interview with Joel Rosenberg earlier this week for an upcoming issue of the Limbaugh Letter, and Joel, I mean he’s convinced that the ChiComs and the NorComs have an alliance, but he really believes that the North Korea thing is something being sponsored by Iran to test everybody in the world’s reaction to it, just to see if we have the will anymore to stop rogue regimes like this from acquiring nuclear weapons.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Snarley and I were talking about the North Koreans and UH,
in their their their tests. There's gonna be a sanction
vote tomorrow. And once again, ladies in general, we have
been shafted by the the Russians and the and the Chinese. Uh.
The vote on sanctions is tomorrow. And fox Head breaking

(00:23):
news story this morning saying that an arms embargo will
not be added to U N resolutions. There will be
no ban on where the nor comes can fly in
the resolution. Uh. I mean this is really watered down
stuff to be voted on tomorrow morning. Now, all of
this is supposed to deter North Korea. All of this

(00:45):
is supposed to deter Iran. Make no mistake about something
on this. Uh. The Iranians are watching all this very carefully,
just as they were watching the Israeli hes Bala war.
Probably part of that one, just to check everybody's resolve.
And I I didn't interview with Joel Rosenberg earlier this

(01:07):
week for an upcoming issue of the Limboll Letter. And Joel,
I mean, he's convinced that the chi coms and the
norcoms have an alliance, but he really believes that the
North Korea thing is uh something being sponsored by Iran
to test everybody in the world's reaction to it. Uh,
just to see if we have the will anymore to

(01:27):
stop rogue regimes like this from acquiring nuclear weapons. Not
appears that this little Kim Jong Il uh maybe pulling
a Saddam Hussein doesn't have a weapon yet, trying to
make everybody believe that he does. Uh. Saddam trying to
be the big guy, the big anti American guy in

(01:47):
the Middle East. And here's Uh, here's Kim John Ill
who just wants some respect. And I've sick and tired
of hearing democrats go on television to night. We just
want some respect. If we just grab him some respects.
Why should we have to grant these guys respect? What
have they done to earn it? You've seen the satellite photo,
haven't you. Rumsfeld showed this picture the other day at

(02:09):
a press conference. Nighttime satellite picture shows lights blazing all
over South Korea. In North Korea, it is entirely dark
except for a little pin point of light where Kim
Jong Ill lives in pyeong Yang. It is it is

(02:32):
said that the lights in the North Korea have to
go off at nine o'clock every night because they just
don't have the electricity. They are backwards, stone age country.
People journalists that have been over there and have been
granted certain access say it is the most is the
mind boggling thing to watch North Korea people go about
their business. They walk looking at their shoes, They do

(02:55):
not make eye contact with one another. They are robotic,
they are afraid to stand out. They're they're definitely afraid
of being shot, being killed, imprisoned or whatever for looking
at something the wrong way. What in the world is
it that engenders respect about this regime, particularly from liberals

(03:16):
who I thought were so concerned about human rights in
the Liberals ought to be leading the charge for reform
of places like this and the Middle East, and once
again they're exposed as the phonies and the hypocrites that
they are. In a way, I can't help but think
that this, this water down resolution is a little pathetic.

(03:38):
We go to the u N. China and Russia delude
our efforts, UH and we get nowhere, and yet we
keep going there. We don't have to go there, and
we ought to not go there, but we do because
we've got to explore all the diplomatic options first before
we do anything next. Um Now, my guess is that

(04:04):
one of the reasons we might be willing to accept
a watered down resolution is because the guy hasn't really
blown up a nuke that he just you know, threw
some essentially some sticks of nine, probably called the act
mee dynamite come probably call it the same outfit that
while e coyote calls and had a had a box
of dynamite act mee dynamite shipped over there and or

(04:25):
a couple and blew them up. Is nobody can find
any traces of radioactivity. My guess is that behind the scenes,
people sitting around saying that's really what a nuclear test
and let's not overreact and so forth. But I think
that's potentially a mistake.
