oh god... stupid, why new nukes... makes no sense, then we shouldn't have gotten rid of the ones we had from before if we realized we are going to build more later.

N. Korean knows that they don't stand a chance against the US. They are just trying to get the US to give them more economic aid and the best way they think that they can do that is to threaten us with Nukes. Yes, this is an issue, but Saddam and muslim extremist terrorists are a more immediate threat.

Lets assume you are right. Then do you believe the US should give NK more economic aid just because they are threatening them nukes?

What kind of precedent do you think this would set?

Hell NO we should not give them economic aid. I'm just trying to answer the original question as to why NKorea is doing this crap. I think we should attack NKorea as soon as we are done with Iraq/terrorists.

I am North Korean, and I am a communist! YOU FOOLS!

Why does everyone seem to want war? Do they think somehow the US economy will improve after war? I'm sorry to burst you're bubble, but this isn't the great depression, and starting a war will just put us further into the whole, not to mention needlessly kill lots of people.

We're in most respects the most powerful country in the world. Technically, we're an immediate threat to everyone. Are they starting war on us?

I think you've listened to Bush too much, because obviously you consider Muslims and Iraqi's and Terrorists to be the same thing

I want war so that every child born in Iraq will have the opportunity to grow up in a country where they are granted basic human rights, where they won't be killed for voicing their opinions, and where they'll have an opportunity to prosper economically and intellectually. Why does everyone seem to oppose giving them that opportunity?

Why stop with Iraq though? Saudi Arabia has the same problems why not start a war there? I get the impression that you consider the U.S. (with it's current foreign policies) as a white knight riding around the world rescuing people from evil. How come the U.S. seem to ignore, and sometimes even support, regimes that in no way are any better than Saddam Hussein's?

Gotta start somewhere. I don't think Iraq's the best choice, but it's better than doing nothing. I'd like to see the U.S. riding around the world rescuing people from evil. But what I'd really like to see is other countries doing it too, instead of just sitting on their hands acting like its not their problem that people are suffering.
