For those that need explanation. North korea opresses its citizens equal if not worse than iraq did. North Korea openly proclaims programs to develop Nuclear, yes admits Nuclear programs are underway. Infact there is a reasonale chance that north korea has the means to develop them already.

Also north korea has long range ballistic missles capable of holding their nukes. With range capable of easily hitting Hawaii and maybe even california. Iraq would need to have other means of delivering them, The missile defence shield is a joke so you arent safe.

Another great thing. North Korea is selling their Nuclear and Missile technology to Iran.

Just to clarify, WE CANNOT FUCKING HANDLE NORTH KOREA THE SAME WAY WE HANDLED IRAQ! To quote myself:

Quote:

Iraq supposedly had biological and chemical weapons. North Korea, on the other hand has nukes, which are the only true weapons of mass destruction. You can't shower off the effects of a 50 kiloton blast or save someone who's body mass was turned into plasma by sticking a needle in their arm. Nor did Hussien have 10,000 artillery pieces sitting parked on the border of anyone waiting to turn them into a parking lot. Furthermore, North Korea has over a million active duty troops in their country's army right now. Saddam had an 387,000 man army and it took roughly 250,000 troops to oust him from power. It would take between 600,000 and 700,000 troops to oust Kim assuming that his army is no better than Hussein's. Even if we did have that many troops to spare, we don't have a country to stage an invasion from. South Korea isn't letting us, China obviously won't let us, and Russa won't either. Not to mention that Kim could potentially kill hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of South Korean and Japanese civilians. After reviewing all of that, it becomes very obvious why we have not done anything to Kim.
