mojomonkey Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 To be honest as far as I can read the Monroe Doctrine is entirely concerned with the US's handling of events in North and South America. It seems all rather historic to me and I would appreciate an explanation of its relevance to North Korea. I'll be upfront and say now that I don't have the time to read a 350 page book on the fourth protocol, could you summarise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llap Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The MONROE Doctrine extends to the oceans and islands surrounding the Americas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llap Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I'm sure there's a Wikipedia entry on Dr Dugin. Go on YouTube and lookup his BBC Newsnight interview. It's quite amusing watching him totally slaughter the snot nose BBC interviewer with pure logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojomonkey Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I can only find it being referred to as covering the Americas, how far does it extend? Does it really extend as far as North Korea? North Korea does seem like a loony state that is growing in confidence but would they really attack the United States? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Korea does seem like a loony state that is growing in confidence but would they really attack the United States? It extends to Japan, Taiwan and South Korea as Pacific allies. North Korea with its ballistic and nuclear capabilities is a threat to the Pacific west coast of the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llap Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The MONROE Doctrine isn't some set out bloody list of doctrines. It's a general notion of maintaining US hegemony of control over all surrounding areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Has the pacific west coast of the usa been attacked much in it's history? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojomonkey Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 North Korea can't get a missile to America, they all crash into the sea shortly after launch. According to Wikipedia (as you suggested) that Dugin guy appears to be a fascist with close ties to the Russian military. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTeapot Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The US is itching for a fight. Obviously the North Korea leadership appears to be totally mental, but the willy waving from the US is pretty horrible to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Wikipedia (as you suggested) that Dugin guy appears to be a fascist with close ties to the Russian military. North Korea is believed to have more than 1,000 missiles of varying capabilities, including long-range missiles, which could one day strike the US. North Korea's missile programme - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-17399847 Dr Dugin is one of the key people in understanding the emerging nationalist ideology in Russia, with implications for its foreign policy in terms of what it perceives to be its field of national and broader "Eurasian" sphere of interest. Saying he has close ties to the military is a fairly meaningless aside point. Is he a "fascist"? No, he's a Russian nationalist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojomonkey Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Assuming they do exist, do you think that North Korea is stupid enough to use them? They certainly appear unstable to say the least. The consequences of an attack on North Korea are worrying. It's not own personal opinion but Wikipedia says that Dugin is known for his fascist views, surely that can only mean he is a fascist?
