The New World Blackmail The Nuclear Card
Based on what is happening with the United Nations Iran and North Korea, it is clear that the new world blackmail bargaining chip is the Nuclear Card!
Want a big cash influx into your economy, entry into the European Community, entry into the World Trade Organization, preferential treatment from powerful countries? All you have to do is to start a nuclear program and you'll get all these and more just to stop. You don't even have to really be planning to create a nuclear weapon, just set up some centrifuges and corral all of your nuclear physicists into one business center, maybe even put up a sign, and the world will be at your doorstep just waiting to pay you to stop your endeavors.
Want more hard cold cash and even more incentives? Then get really serious and actually build some nuclear facilities, but don't spend too much money as to stop you, the world powers will pay you even more and offer to create a whole civilian infrastructure for nuclear power and will even remove your old spent nuclear rods. You can have it all! Money and cheap nuclear power for your country.
Worried about sanctions? Don't be, sanctions smanctions...they won't happen, just look at North Korea and Iran, nothing's happening there. Oh wait, if you have oil in your country, your bargaining power just got bigger. Threaten to turn off the oil to get triple what they offer you the first time.
Yes, this is all tongue in check, but there is some truth to this post as attested to by the statement released by North Korea today. "Drop sanctions and we won't do any more nuclear testing." If you believe that one, I have the Brooklyn Bridge for sale this week, it's on special!
