why doesn't the US disarm North Korea of WMD's? Remember WMD's were a reason for going to war with iraq..

Question

WMD's are undoubtedly in North Korea, why not take the same foreign policy and disarm them of their WMD's?

i just remember all of the bush administration saying that he undoubtedly has WMD's and will use them against his neighbors, our allies, and America, and also all these chemical weapons.....so we needed to take military action to disarm them..

scubadog is the real genius, he knows everything about the US government

Answer 1

I am ashamed to say that we only attack weak countries that have no chance of fighting back. The US condemns the UN, but would use that organization at the drop of a hat to solidify it's own position.

Now look at what they did in Iraq, used the UN to enforce a no fly zone on Iraq, dismantled their airforce, then had carte blanc to bomb the country back to the stone age. This was possible because Iraq had some respect for the UN.

Well N Korea do not give a flying Fish for the UN, have a standing army of over a million, nuclear bomb, and a leader crazy enough to actually want war with the US. It is called calling our bluff and the bluff has been called.

Answer 2

ok Moron pay attention heavily, a million. Iraq is in yet another area of the worldwide subsequently demands various measures. 2. China has a good style of diplomatic pull with N. Korea so we are in a position to have them tension them Saddam had no such ability over him 3. We first positioned sanctions and tried international family members with Saddam and those efforts from 1992-2003 did no longer yield effects N Korea nonetheless has of project to end this with peace 4. The DMZ is a wilderness crammed with landmines and different traps with the N. Koreans waiting on the different edge. Why else does no longer N. Korea purely invade the south like N. Vietnam did 5. Make no mistake that the two Iran and N. Korea are on the reducing block as quickly as Iraq is settled one undertaking at a time

Answer 3

This is true. And I agree.
Currently the military is reaching the breaking point, so you must keep in mind that there are still troops in Afghanistan, and the National Guard has stationed a lot of troops at the US/Mexico border.
We cannot start something with North Korea too, without re-instating the draft. Not only the draft, but China and Russia would most likely step in as well, against us. Who knows who else would join them. Now we have to tip-toe lightly, where North Korea is concerned. This administration really dropped the ball this time.

Answer 4

We should take NK's nuclear abilities out! Their nuclear test was a fizzle, but they do mean Americans, and our friends harm.

Iraq used WMD's against the Kurds and Iran. To deny that they had them is BS. If the US could look in Syria, we'd find them!

Anyway, I'm all for nuking North Korea, or at least bombing them into the stone age. The remaining residents of North Korea, wouldn't notice the change.

They're starving and need a new leader. They'll follow anyone that can feed them.

Answer 5

It's been proven that there in fact weren't weapons of mass destruction and that it was really and excuse to go into Iraq , they had almost nothing to do 9/11 but were a perfect scapegoat for the bush administration , a real threat such as North Korea seems to be something that our president can't actually handle and he honestly doesn't seem to be able to do anything without there being some sort of personal interest .

Answer 6

It's just a matter of time. At the time, it was believed that Iraq was the easiest strategically. Then it would be on to Iran and North Korea. However, with the Iraq situation as difficult as it has turned out to be, I think the leaders will be much more cautious about going into Iran or North Korea.

Answer 7

It's sad you feel so strongly about this, but have put no effort forth to actual obtain knowledge about the full background behind the war with Iraq. Your failure to even mention, let alone understand, the full background of the US and UN years-long efforts in eliminating Iraqi WMD, which they had agreed to as part of the cease-fire agreement of the Gulf War, only displays the depth of your ignorance.

Sorry, Paco, but your question and statements are tedious and based on lack of knowledge.

Answer 8

I see the point your trying to make.

we shouldn't have gone to iraq in the first place

this is bush's hypocrisy at it's finest.
you see, iraq is rich in natural resources (oil!)

north korea...
almost no natural resources
one of the most bankrupt countries is the world

and america isn't all powerful
and china might be pretty pissed at american bombs dropped on the korean peninsula

Answer 9

That's a good point. WMD was just an excuse to go into Iraq. Now if there was oil we'd be there...... good thing theres not a **** load of oil in China.

Answer 10

It takes a lot of lube for a Republican to attack a country. Lube is made from oil. N.K. doesn't have oil. The Marc Foley Republicans need the lube or no war.
