Oh North Korea, you so silly!

North Korea says new nuclear test will be part of fight against U.S. - CNN.com

I used to think that Kim Jong Un was more in touch with reality, but it seems that isn't the case.

North Korea said Thursday that it plans to carry out a new nuclear test and more long-range rocket launches, all of which it said are a part of a new phase of confrontation with the United States.

You think this is all a game? Maybe NK wants to declare war, get stepped on, and wait for money from the government to help rebuild.

he did the same thing a few years ago, but the bush led us was not concerned and instead went on the saddam witchhunt

worthless fight too, big risks, little reward. If NK was "democratized" for the lack of a better term, most contracts would go to South Korea and Japan, as it makes much more sense.

Nuclear Threat is not worth it at this point for the western powers, IMO.

I often wonder what goes through the minds of leaders like kju. Do they really think they would have a chance in a full confrontation with a country of our military strength?

Don't want it to happen but that's what would happen.

FUCKING LOL DJ.

I think my biggest concern is that IF they were crazy enough to actually launch a missile at us (assuming they DO have the ability now), what would happen next? Yeah, we could just step on them like it's nothing, but I'm afraid of other countries doing something stupid.

And we wouldn't step on them? The countries that have enough military and/or funding to support a war against us are part of peace treaties. These little "supreme leaders" making up for bedroom shortcomings by building large missles, don't stand a chance and they know it. We wouldn't even have to send a man overseas to retaliate on north korea, it could be done with a couple buttons on a computer.

You know, when you're talking about other nuclear powers, mutually assured destruction is what gives madmen some confidence. Granted, missile defense in the US is superb and NK still didn't test the range. (so, NOT assured, i guess? lol)
