So here's what I thinking... If I were the president of the U.S. I'd wait utnil I saw the sattelite images of people lining up view the dropping of the a-bomb in North Korea and then right at that moment we fly over, drop the bgigest possible nuclear weapon we have, and then give North Korea's remaining dignitaries a pat on the back for pulling off such a huge explosion in one try.

Correction they already have the A-Bomb and the united states is not the country with the most leverage to do anything to them. Our only hope is that china keeps the north koreans in check because they are the only country that has the military to pressure them.

Japan's government is also getting really worried and will most likely take action with China when the time comes.

Why, again, do we care that they have atomic weapons? No country in the world should have them, much less just one country (us). Maybe it'll keep us in check just a little bit.

I had something to say before I read the replies everyone gave. Texan Avenger hit the nail on the head for me. I sit back remaining speechless!

I think i mentioned this once on another post here. But i had the idea of, say, once every 10 years or so, the UN gathers the leaders of EVERY COUNTRY ON THE PLANET. They take them to the desert and allow them to view, collectively, a ~50 megaton nuclear detonation (hell after seeing the videos below, 15 would be MORE than enough), and the complete devistation it creates. After they have each changed into a fresh pair of underpants, I'm pretty sure they would all reconsider their eagerness to obtain or use such a weapon.

Edit: Here's a very small video of a 15 megaton explosion, with description of what is going on (size of fireball, time elapsed, etc).

(caption under movie:The Castle BRAVO test on March 1, 1954, yielded 15 megatons, the largest nuclear weapon ever detonated by the United States. By accident the inhabited atolls of Rongelap, Rongerik and Utirik were contaminated with fallout, as was the Japanese fishing trawler Fukuryu Maru or Lucky Dragon. The controversy over fallout that simmered around the Nevada Test Site erupted into international alarm.)

Can see more videos of smaller nukes, even some of the blastwaves rolling over US troops in trenches (wtf).
