Why am I still awake

What Mr. Obama and his empty showboaters failed even to acknowledge in their "security" summit is the reality of the post-Big Five nuclear age: We're on the brink of a world in which the wealthiest nations from Canada to Norway to Japan can barely project meaningful force to their own borders while the nickel 'n' dime basket cases go nuclear.

How long do you think that arrangement will last? Iran already has offered to share its nuclear technology with Sudan. Sudan? Ring a vague bell? Remember that "Save Darfur" interpretative-dance fundraiser you went to where someone read out a press release from George Clooney and you all had a simply marvelous time? Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed - with machetes. That's pretty labor-intensive. In the Congo, 5 1/2 million have been slaughtered - and again in impressively primitive ways.

But a nuclear Sudan would be a model of self-restraint?
