North Korea is having enough domestic issues of it's own to think about starting a war with the world's greatest superpower and military machine.

Iran could start a war and invoke the support of Muslims worldwide.... they could do some damage provided they got some support from Russia. If Russia entered the ballpark... voila Iran has a delivery system. But I truly think Russia knows better than to do that.

Either way, both countries might be able to start a nuclear war... but the United States would finish it. Personally I'd be all for Iran threatening us and our retaliation causing the Middle East to Rust in Peace... it'd solve a lot of problems, haha!

There's a difference between nuclear power and nuclear warheads. Iran has or is working on reactors for generating electricity. However, they now have the capability to make plutonium for bombs, a separate issue. The US does not know whether they already have nuclear weapons, but thinks that they probably do not. It may be possible to stop Iran from getting the bomb, and to allow them to use nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, but time is running out.

N. Korea already has nuclear weapons. They were on their way to developing them in the early 1990's but the Clinton administration got them to stop. Bush abrogated this agreement with N. Korea and they started up again and now have at least 6-8 bombs.

Before either nation can possibly be a direct threat to the US continent, Alaska or Hawaii, they must develop delivery systems. N. Korea's rockets are ineffectual now, but they showed the world they are working on this aspect on July 4 when they publicly test fired several. We've heard little or nothing about Iran's capability to send a missile this far, but they would be considered a threat to Israel if they got the nuclear weapons.

Many terrorist groups including Al Qaeda already have access to low level nuclear materials. In other words, they can make dirty bombs and probably set them off at any time in the US. The cat is already out of the bag on dirty bomb technology. Our ally Pakistan, is responsible for some of this and it has done it's part to promote as the development of real nuclear weapons in N Korea, Iran and other countries.

ok look, the UN despatched inspectors to Irans nuclear centers, and miraculously all secret try websites have been stripped and imploded in one day. So in the event that they have been making capability and not weapons they does not have lined up all their stuff. additionally Iran is a terrorist state (that's a shown actuality look it up). So in the event that they did make capability they might use the by ability of-producy into grimy bombs, and who might they provide it to? - the terrorist that they help, prepare, and arm. North Korea is an self sustaining state that hates the international and with a nuclear missle they might do fairly some harm to Japan, China, Russia, South Korea, and countless different international locations. Do you even understand something approximately North Korea? For the previous 50 years the youngsters in easy training are taught one ingredient : the u . s . is the reason you devour airborne dirt and airborne dirt and dirt and stay in airborne dirt and airborne dirt and dirt. that is genuine look it up. North Korea makes their toddlers hate the u . s ., prepare them to shoot at american photographs, and tell them that the u . s . has taken over and corrupted South Korea and that sometime they are going to unite the Korean Penninsula. So i think of that the two threats are undesirable and that Iran is the worser of the two evils. those are all genuine statements watch the historical past channel or the invention channels stuff on them or you should look it up on the cyber web. Ans those costs of Iran and Bush and North Korea are not real statements. you won't be in a position to make a controversy with crappy stuff like that. additionally the reason at the back of the insurgency and terrorism in iraq is with the help of the fact the place human beings are the Anti-American extremist will circulate to combat them, so might you quite combat them right here in united statesa. or in Iraq? lots of the insurgents are from international locations interior the middle east and that they circulate to Iraq to die battling so as that Allah will reward them interior the afterlife with ninety two Virgins. that is genuine.

Iran doesn't have atomics at this time and they do not have the delivery system. North Korea has the atomics but not a reliable delivery system. Logic would make one think that they would understand that if they did so, they would cease to exist with the response. However, the leader of Iran believes that this is the end times and that it is his duty to ensure an apocalyptic war happens and with that type of logic anything is possible.

Look up the difference between having capability to generate nuclear power and having a nuclear arsenal. Also look up the difference between a sovereign country and a terrorist organisation.

north korea probably not. though may just hate south korea enough to nuke them. which would have the same general effect...

about iran i am less confident. so are those people who assess threats on global level... which is why america is already prepping the turf for a military intervention should the political pressure of the global community not stop them. wich it probably wont, and for the very same reasons.

Iran wants to remove Israel from the face of the earth
(Fat chance of that happening)
North Korea just wants to sell nukes to other rogue nations in order to make a dishonest buck.

You simply couldn't take the risk. That fact alone is enough to drive US policy, which is, prevention rather than cure. Countries like North Korea and Iran bind their peoples together by identifying a common ideological enemy. It then becomes their 'raison d'etra' in life.

That is why the US has to invoke special powers to deal with these situations. Only naive fools think that the civil law and 'due process' can be successful in dealing with such a potentially dangerous risk.

no, a nuclear attack by any country would end the world

We can only hope!

No one would be foolish enough to use nukes against the US cos of the retribution, although judging by Bush's record, they should do it soon. If Kim Il Jong attacked, Bush would probably invade Libya!.
