a precarious moment

As i am writing this post, a tension is building up intensely in North Asia where N Korea is going to test a missile in the pretext of "self defence". This has brought jitters among superpowers and N Korea's neigbhouring countries. Personally, i think this is not right and can be viewed as an act of potential aggression disguised a national defence.

Just imagine your neighbour practising archery by shooting arrows across your compound to the open land beyond that. Would you feel good about that? No, i think you will want to confront them with your own dose of "arrows". The outcome is of course wars!

I am a peace loving guy and I advocate humanity and compassion. I just do not understand what some political leaders are thinking. I think they are all a bunch of idiots, and somehow we are ruled by these idiots. Ultimately i believe all of them are self serving protecting own interests rather than serving people.

Sad state of affairs huh?
