Turkmenistan
Saparmurad
A.
Niyazov,
(1940- 2006), Turkmen

imagined himself as "Head of all Turkmen"
New elections after his death, hopefully solved this problem
North Korea
The son
continues the cult of his father
Kim Jong Il, takes over from Kim Il Sung
and now the grandson
New Crusade |
The "Crusade" of the
American religious fundamentalists against the Muslim fundamentalists of the
World,
could be as disastrous as the crusades of many years ago.
The "Crusade" not only polarizes and destabilizes the Middle East, but also many parts of the world.

Lets keep our foreign policy secular, and balanced toward all people!
Non Democratic processes in So-called Democratic nations |
In some counties the one
who got the highest popular vote in an election is not declared the winner
do to rigged election laws giving more power to certain areas or groups, or
can be subverted by courts, packed with political cronies.

the people
Indonesia
In many parts of Indonesia, the Javanese
Muslims,

Nuclear Concerns |
In this World there should be no need for Nuclear weapons
flag over Masada
Israel
Lets be
consistent and demand that all nations in the Middle East
give up their Nuclear arms, and plans to build them
Kyongbok Palace, Seoul
(next to government buildings)
Korea
All of
Korea can only be safe if North Korea gives up its Nuclear weapons
and South Korea is encouraged never to build them.
Principal
danger is that, cash strapped, North Korea
starts selling them around the World.
Lets
resist more nations obtaining nuclear devices
and encourage all those who have them to destroy them!
Use of Land Mines |
Land Mines are a cruel
form of weapon, since they kill more civilians than combatants
and are around in unknown locations long after the conflict.
Monument
to those who lost their lives in the
"Killing Fields" period of their history.
Cambodia
Many innocent civilians are still being killed by land mines laid by the Khmer Rouge
Korea
The DMZ between
North and South Korea is heavily mined
This is the reason the American military uses to ask American Congress not to
ratify the treaty
Ratify the Land Mine Treaty, that bans there use!
