Probably not, Kim Jong Il has a history of acting big and then backing down later when he gets a little something he wants. This is nothing more than a bargaining ploy and no real threat as an all out war. Also there are too many countries against North Korea. Every asian country (including China and Russia) are against him, Russia and China just feel getting him to back down would be easier with a more laid-back approach. But if North Korea went to war every asian country, America, probably Britian and Canada, and definitely Australia (and maybe others, who knows) would move immediately against him.
Even if he did get off a nuke, probably all these countries would nuke him right back, eliminating North Korea all together, and Kim Jong Il knows it. In addition, except for South Korea, Japan and possibly China, all countries that might be the intended recipient of that nuke will have more than enough time to intercept it with their own missile (or America doing for them). Kim Jong Il knows better than to play those odds.

Unfortunately, I believe so yes. The NK dictator is crazy, flat out. There really is no other way to describe it. He is the new Hitler, the difference being that he is short, fat, and won't play mind games like Hitler did and tell you that "his" people live there and this is basis for taking over. No, he just tells you straight up "Hey, I have missles and once I get them working, I'm going to shoot you. Ok? Have a nice day." I don't know where to begin with his mental instability.

Ok most of you guys are stupid a**es Kim Jong II isn't stupid enough to get into a conflict with the U.S. and he's not stupid enough to fire a nuke. And if we do decide to go to war with the NK it will be a short conflict like the first Korean war.
