The current affairs of the world are frighten. Countries continue to stockpile nuclear-weapons, and are actively testing them. Diplomacy seems to have failed-- as talk is cheap. Power is what leaders are after, and to achieve that end-- means a stronger-military. What will come of this planet is a waiting-game, but the nation of North Korea-- is certainly not sitting on their asses. Alliances form, then territories go to war-- has been the haunting motto for the past century, now. The future is bleak and uncertain-- so, you can either 'stick your head in the sand', or face this reality.
