Suspected North Korean Cyber Attacks Highlight Problems

 As obama slowly but surely socializes our country a new threat is looming on the horizon.  Looming might be putting it lightly we have already been hit by hackers, along with our allies the South Koreans.  The targeting of the White house, the pentagon and the Washington post among others highlights the dangers that are still out there in an unsure world.

It gives pause to think about obamas foreign affairs strategy thus far. The trip dubbed the apology tour by many saw our president traveling around Europe the middle east and parts of South America apologizing for what he believed to be past transgressions.  Now its debatable if what we have done in the past was the right course for foreign affairs, but it is not kosher to run around bashing your country.  If you have an issue with the way things have been going change the way we do business, but don't disparage your country,that my friend is unacceptable.  Now that is not to say that I buy into the whole America is hated abroad and thats bad tirade shouted by liberals.  On the contrary i find it ridiculous.  The basis for the argument is that we don't take into account the way other countries feel when we set policy and that is bad.  Im going to clear this up right now and say I could care less what France thinks about America, I could care less what Russia thinks about America and honestly I could care less what any country thinks of us.  We have to start looking out for number one.  Ever since the Revolution when we received the only credible help from the French we have been bailing out the French and they have reciprocated very little to anything back.  Oh except grave desecration of some of our WW2 hero's that are still buried there.  Now i want to be clear when i say that Im talking of the French government and not the people as a whole.  I'm sure there are some great french people out there and should not be penalized by there ludicrous government.  Now I believe in having strong allies but allies are not there to be moral police.  Unless there is a drastic human rights violation a foreign Government should have very little to anything to say about the goings on in another country.

In the end obamas strategy of hoping for a coalition of countries to take care of problems is not going to work.  We must step up our defensive systems not downsize.  We must stand strong to the jealous world not bend over for them.  Does obama not think that money spent on defense will not benefit our economy?  When you put in a Military installation you boost the service sector in the community its located in and beyond.  obama needs to forget his liberal tendencies of appeasement and see the writing on the wall.  The cyber attacks highlight the key dangers that are still lurking out there waiting for us to let our guard down, under obama they shouldn't have to wait long.

well if he has any thing to do with it he will let them in himself. he thinks the white house is just his little play house and this is all a game, and his wife is just as stupid as he is. nice hub brother well written, but ad some more tags like at least 20 because it will give u more of a hit off the search engines, bringing more traffic to your hubs and making u more money. i think it also helps with the ads, better tags adds better ads which pay more. i started doing that and i doubled my money.:)
