Russia threatening Georgia, the Ukraine and Poland – the North Koreans making more noise about their nuclear program – Pakistan’s politics – Iran’s boldness – Afghanistan in turmoil – Western economies wobbling.

If I was a very influential politician, I would:

Update 20111104: I’m no longer involved with network marketing.
