Poking the Bear

With today's ballistic missile launch by North Korea it seems to me Kim Jong-un continues poking the bear. That would be the US, South Korea and Japan. Couple that with yesterday's 50-foot danger close fly-by of a Russian jet. The times are testing America's resolve. Both actions are provocative and dangerous. We're a tolerant and patient nation. However, there's coming a time where our liberties we prize and our rights as well as our citizens' and allies' security we will maintain. I doubt America's first response will be military. We'll keep trying to find a diplomatic and economic solution. I hope that works. If not, then my thriller, #ManOfHonor, will prove far more predictive than I had ever thought when I figured out how a foreign power could bring America's transport industry to its knees.
