North Korea is gonna wish they hadn't done that.....

Peewee2 · 10-09-2006

What, What is N.K. gonna do. Half their country is starving, their bomb technology is old, and their army is weak and ill equipped. They will use their bomb to bully other weak countrys because if they so much as touch us we will bomb them until the're a giant pile of radioactive DUST. If they touch us there will be a 80000 year fallout.
You know what the U.S. is gonna do. They are gonna say some strong words and forget about it.

North Korea is like Iran, minor threat that only the hippies worry about because the rest of us didn't spend the sixties smoking weed.

Please argue my points but if you are some nine year old kid and you say somthing stupid I will flame yas.

NK and Iran are a little too corrupt and close to terrorism for me to be comfortable that they have nuclear tech.

Whay do we have to be afraid of Iran. They have the highest educated class in asia and sure they hate us but imagine what would we do to them if they attacked us. They are smart they will not.

N.K. just wants attention. That's about it. What I sort of find stupid is how some people call N.K., Iran, and Iraq the Axis of Evil. Sure, they currently are the countries that we are having major conflicts with at this time, but as far as I know, they have not signed any alliance treaties with each other. Back on subject now. If N.K. does launch a nuclear missile, Alaska, Hawaii, and California are the states in America that are the most vulnerable. As for our response to a nuclear missile being launched at any country would probably be an attack on N.K. Bush is just making all the wrong moves, he attacked Iraq when they had not attacked us, and he's trying to negotiate with N.K. although they do not stick with agreements. What we need to do is destroy all of N.K.'s missile launch sites.

I'm guessing they'd need to do reconnaisance before they start w/ any preemptive strikes. Althought I'm thinking if they DID have launch sites, the satelites would pick that up; and we'dve struck them already.

This is all political bullsht. So many countries have nuclear weapons now.. And any of them can be lured to sell their nukes to terrorists. India, Pakistan, China, Russia, etc.. Why is everyone having a heart attack now that north korea has them? Its all media and political hype.

Some people didn't call Iran, Iraq, and NK the Axis of Evil, George Bush ( Our current President and Inventor of Scrabble ) did . I cringed when he made that speech and publicly called these countries out. That doesn't mean I support these maniac regimes, I just think it was wrong way to go about it.

I think Kim Jung is a very Ronery, Ronery, little man.
Oh so Ronery.

North Korea Wants Congratulations

UNITED NATIONS (AP) -- The U.N. Security Council should congratulate North Korea for its nuclear test instead of passing "useless" resolutions or statements, North Korea's U.N. ambassador said Monday.

Pak Gil Yon told reporters he was proud of the North Koreans who conducted the test, and said the Security Council ought to be, too. Asked if the North planned any more tests, Pak said: "That will be enough. You don't think so?"
The council was holding a meeting about the test, and several diplomats warned of tough measures, possibly including the threat of sanctions.
"It will be better for the Security Council of the United Nations to congratulate the DPRK scientists and researchers instead of doing such notorious, useless and rigorous resolutions or whatever," Pak said, referring to the North by its formal name, the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea.

While many council members said the test would be a threat to international peace and security, Pak claimed just the opposite.
"The nuclear test in the DPRK will greatly contribute in increasing the world deterrence of the DPRK" and will contribute "to the maintenance and guarantee of peace and security in the peninsula and the region," he said.
