He did say he would be an agent of change in foreign policy. He said that the days of unilateral decisions would be done. And I think he is sticking to that, at least for the moment.

I think Iran is testing the US, but saw a broadcast last night that the President of Iran may not be re-elected and may be replaced with a more moderate candidate. More than anything it seems to me that Iran wants world acceptance, but he wants to be on a EQUAL footing with the major powers and I don't think anyone is willing to go there.

The problem with North Korea is that we don't get any good intel on them. The crazy man that is their President doesn't care about world opinion. Right now, the intel says that he is just saber rattling. I don't know if he is "testing" the new Administration or not, but he has done this before, in fact, I seem to recall that there was something while Bush was President too.

I was watching Morning Joe this morning and someone said that China has always been North Korea's "friend" in the region (actually, I think they are their only trading partner; but I don't know what NK exports). As we know, China holds our debt. If we proceed boldly with North Korea and China doesn't like it, China could call our debt... you see where this is going. The only good news is that China has nothing to gain by destablizing the region or else they would have attacked Taiwan long ago.

The nuclear stuff gives me the willies. I feel like I need to practice my "duck and cover" and start builing the bomb shelter.
