N. Korea's people are starving to pay for it's army. Despite the numbers, they don't have the money to actually fight a war that their troop numbers suggest. They would certainly be more formidable than Iraq though.
That's not to say that I think we should invade N. Korea anytime soon. We need to get Iraq finished up, and make sure all diplomatic options have been exhausted and that we have at least the blessing if not the assistance of a considerable coalition.
