The Marmot’s Hole

Let’s we here in the ROK get to know the views of one Bishop W. Bower Jr., late of Clarkridge, Arkansas, shall we?

Mr. Bower believes that there is one, quick way to end the lingering A-bomb crisis festering up in the cold, dark DPRK. For those of you who live in probable target areas — you might need go shopping for sunglasses, ’cause you gotta a very, very bright future ahead of you.

We should furnish South Korea with an atomic bomb and all the necessary materials needed and the firm OK to take North Korea out.

Drop the bomb on the heaviest military concentration, and, at the same time South Korea is taking out North Korea, give the OK to Israel to take out Iran the same way. Drop the atomic bomb on their heaviest military facilities. The United States would then inform the rest of the world to stay out of this and we will take care of it, and we definitely mean stay out of it.

Let these two countries wallow in their own destruction for 60-90 days, then go in and help the survivors rebuild their countries and install democracy.

Easy there, big fella! One man’s “let these two countries wallow in their own destruction for 60-90 days” is another man’s, “Damn, that would suck for me. I know the subway is supposed also be a bomb shelter and stuff, but 60-90 days is a long, long time.”

But wait, there’s more, Sparky!

This may sound harsh, but look at it this way � we did not start World War II with Japan, we ended it. We did not start this war with these rogue countries, so let’s end it with the smallest amount of American lives as possible.

Sound harsh? Sound harsh! I’ll say!

With all do respect to Mr. Bower, it’s thinking such as that that has caused the rest of the world to seeth in anger against America and everything it stands for. Just cause someone ain’t got a little blue American passport, doesn’t make their life any less valuable.
