guess i am thinking they go as far as north korea. bang the drums but never release the bomb The problem is that the Kims are genuinely scared for their lives and their hold on power. The mullahs, or at least a very influential cliche of ruling mullahs and their agents, don't fear for their lives and believe they are ushering in the shiite version of the Second Coming. That's why I can't agree with Barnett, who seems to see them like Soviet commissars. Unlike the Soviets, I believe the mullahs genuinely believe their own ideology. Derek
