Current event 1

This past week two eastern Asian counties have attempted to launch a missile. North Korea and India. Korea's was unsuccessful, while india was busy showing the world they are not to be messed with. India launched their missile of an island south east of continental india. This launch proved to be much more successful than any other world power expected. This missile had the capabilities to carry 100 ton nuclear bomb and had the distance of possibly targeting main cities such as Beijing. China has firmly stated that they are in no sort of arms race with India, and consider them to be a much weaker power in the world.

I think that other countries such as india acquiring missile capabilities should be a type of wake up call to the united states. We are no longer the sole super power in he world and more are beginning to join our ranks. While we must not get in the way of India's business, I do believe that the UN should consider talking up some kind of treaty or agreement if none already exists. The United States should not be afraid or worry that India will ever interfere with our foreign policy, but rather be aware that south eastern asia will not always be at the bottom of the pyramid.
