“Pakistan-a known supporter of terrorism and therefore IS a threat to the Western world.”

But that doesn’t matter because they are being helpful in Afghanistan… or paying lip service to being helpful anyway.

“Saudi Arabia-hell, even some of the royal family gives money to terrorists, and therefore IS a threat to the Western world.”

They have too much oil to be bad.

“Iran-since when have they stopped calling us Great Satan and decided they want better relations? As it stands, they also support terrorism and are therefore a threat to the Western world.”

Unless you are Israeli or live in Israel then you are pretty much safe from “their” terrorists.

“The jury’s currently out on Libya, but I am impressed with the progress they are making towards getting back into the international community.”

And what difference does being a member of the international community make? Saudi Arabia has good standing… didn’t make the actions of 15 or so Saudi Citizens in US airspace on 11/9 any less damaging.

“As for North Korea…they have no problem exporting missile technology all over the world…”

So what? One or two missiles will make very little difference anyway. I thought that was the point of NMD? The threats to the western world is an airliner full of fuel at a soccer game or Football game, or anthrax, or a small nuclear device. Why go to the huge expense and simultanously broadcast who the purpetrator is for an attack that could more easily use a light cessna or boeing, or a suitcase, or even a large ship?
