So many people responded to the last question with "Iraq has no WMD and NK does"

Well, Hindsight is 20/20, we know NOW that Iraq does not have WMD, we did not know then. Saddam CLAIMED he had them and BTW Nuclear is not the only type of WMD, chemical weapons work just as well, and he was trying to make them and said he had them.

North Korea SAYS that they are testing a nuclear weapon and sets off an explosion the size of a champagne bottle top cork coming off and now we should invade them? No one has PROOF that NK has any WMD, and the leader CLAIMS he has them, what is the difference between the situations?

Once again with my question about the double standard? Why is it ok for people to bash bush for invading Iraq and also for the same politicians to bash him for NOT invading North Korea?

The simple fact is that had Bush invaded N. Korea but not Iraq the liberals would be pitching the same fit! They'd claim that N. Korea was simply a "regional problem" that could have been handled through negotiations with the Chinese and then squeal loud and long about the Iraqi "threat" to moderate Mideast nations and Israel and blame Bush for his "inaction".
That about sums it up, don't you think?

a million) the US can no longer attack N. Korea because of the fact we don't have sufficient troops because of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. 2) whether the US have been to attack N. Korea that could initiate a conflict with China and subsequently WW III. 3) Sanctions won't artwork on N. Korea because of the fact China will at last furnish N. Korea and there is not any longer something the US can do approximately it. 4) the only thank you to provide up N. Korea is by using China, N. Korea's in easy terms best chum and proper now it truly is in easy terms paying for and advertising companion. 5) contained meanwhile we would desire to continuously desire that N. Korea would not provide terrorists a nuke weapon that ought for use against the US yet N. Korea could by no potential right this moment attack the US with nukes because of the fact they no the US could wipe them off the map.

The diff is that there were no Asians that have attacked outside their own borders in terrorist like attacks in a long time. Regardless of if Saddam had anything to do with 9/11, Islamic extremists drew a line in the sand and Saddam got lumped in with their kind and their way of thinking.

It will ultimately become our problem if NK get too out of hand because we all know the UN has no balls and it's always the US that has to bail out the globe.

the diff is that nk doesnt have oil, and iraq does. The difference is that no-one wants to invade nk again. the difference is that we knew that sadaam had nothing, and paid no atttention to the intelligence saying so while there is a good chance that nk does have something and may be crazy enough to use it. The difference is that nk has a large army that would probably fight, and iraq had a large army that we knew would run away.

I'm especially partial to the claim that we should invade because of the horribly inhumane conditions North Koreans live under. That's true. How would you describe the slaughter and starving of the Shia in Southern Iraq? Fun in the sun?

I do because he borrowed balls to attack Iraq but cant to NK. He only attacked after he for sure knew Sadam had nothing. NK is saying here look at my fireworks, and Bush is shitting in his pants. Hey if you have balls for one then you must have balls for both

Because Dems care nothing for the lives of anyone. They are lie and complain about anything they can, especially during an election year.
