Naturally, they are waiting for some sign, but what? They'll never get down on their knees and beg forgiveness, mercy, and promise to do whatever we say without something in return.

I don't know what they want....do you? It would be nice to know before they blow up something any of these - the Pacific Coast, South Korea, or Japan. It would be their utter destruction if they did, as it should be. But I hate to think of us dropping the first bomb.
