Nearly all americans have absolutely no idea of the world beyond their borders, they think we are all a bunch of savages, is it strange for them to hear that some of us view them in the same light ? They are kept that way by a warmongering government that pushes hatred of foreigners down their throats continually, via the media and that peculiar religion that they have, the shouty one that bears absolutely no relation to the Christianity that we have had for 2000 years. This keeps them fighting for america, killing foreigners and generally being a bloody damned nuisance wherever they go.
Sorry americans, but it is true and it is sad but also true that the British public is being manipulated in the same direction.
Quite dreadful.

North Korea is an impoverished nation. Its development of nuclear weapons is an aberration when it cannot even feed its people. The US generates as much electricity in a day and a half as North Korea does in a year. North Korea does not have the resources to do much of anything, and is reliant on outside support to survive.
There are really two parts to your question, and the one has not much to do with the other. North Korea is not in any position to wage war on anybody. It would be cut off and starved to death in a very short time. It does not have the manufacturing capacity to build much of mechanized, modern army, all it has is 5 million bodies in the military that would become cannon fodder in short order.
There is no way that North Korea could even begin to wage any sort of war against the United States. If it tried any such thing it would be obliterated in no time. What the Iraq experience has taught us, in my opinion, is that once you take down a nation, instead of going in there like goody-two shoes and try to rebuild it and get your butts handed to you in handbaskets every day, just bomb the place into oblivion and leave it that way. Let the survivors deal with the mess on their own. That should keep them busy enough, just trying to survive, that they will not have the energy to launch any kind of attack for decades.
This is what should be done to North Korea; all its infrastructure should be reduced to rubble, its military bombed to pieces, its roads and bridges, electrical generating plants, government buildings all flattened. Then let them spend the next 50 years fixing it all, at which time you flatten it all again, and in the process eliminate North Korea as any threat to anyone because it will be so destroyed and wiped out it has nothing.
Besides, we need to get rid of all our old bombs every so often and North Korea would be a good place to dump them.
All this diplomatic rhetoric is a silly joke and will accomplish nothing, ever.

Well, what's happening now is equivalent to cutting off the hydra's head. When the US invaded Iraq on the basis of WMD, other countries took notes. If the world superpower was willing to put its stamp on what it considered right and wrong, then other countries would have to find a way to resist that power. The best way and most effective now is to build nuclear weapons. Iran and North Korea, 'axis of evil' countries feel the need to build nuclear weapons so that they won't be invaded by the US.
As for your reference to Japan and Germany during World War II, that's exactly what the USA is doing now.

I believe 11 others countries have nuclear capability.
I also believe that North Korea has the right to pursue what goals
they think best suits them.
Iran is the same.
A few countries cannot or should not dictate what other smaller less economic deprived countries "can" do.
Pakistan has nuke ability.
I am sure Iran has some form of nuke (even suitcase charge)
power. (terrorist wise because of Israel) does not mean they'll be used.
The USA I am afraid will suffer greatly for what Bush has created (a monster in world eyes).
who will trust us now>
We go en-mass- force.
thats wrong.
These other countries should pursue what system they expect they will need for improvement of their condition. and defense if needed.
who can you trust?

Do you think China would allow North Korea to attack its largest trading partner? If they thought the possibility would occur they would annex Korea in a heartbeat.
Do you think North Korea would attack the US since most of their industry is subcontractors for Japanese and Chinese companies whose end products wind up in the US? An attack on the US would have catastrophic results, not the least of which would be the end of North Korea.

I think the USA, UK, France, Italy, Germany and any other civilised country should be allowed to attack any other unstable country which has the potential to kill millions. I am not a citizen of the USA but if the Koreans are planning to attack America I think the Western world should rise up and crush the Eastern war mongers.

If North Korea ever launches a nuclear attack on the US, the US retaliation will kill every living thing in North Korea. Even Kim Jung Il should have enough brain cells to figure that one out.

Power corrupts whether in individuals or as a Nation. In democracies, vote out the war monger they do not or should not represent the will of its people. If autocracies, overthrow the dictators. We get what we deserve. If we do nothing then we willingly or unwillingly will be led down the self serving will of the inept leadershi to destruction. Just look at what happened to Germany and its people in World War 2!

i wish N. korea attacks the US with nuclear arms, cause the US is an over pumped country, it had the first in the heart of it's ego in 9/11 , the second is the failure in Iraq, and the third will be by either Iran or North Korea, i guess Iran will come first just cause they are muslim.
