JJ's Journal: North Korea's Nukes

I've seen a lot of postings by anti-USA folks cheering for the development of nuclear weapons by the North Koreans. IMHO that's cutting your nose off to spite your face. North Korea is about as paranoid a government as exists on the planet and putting a maniac in charge of a nuclear weapon is seriously adding to the likelihood of millions of people dieing in a truly pointless but short nuclear war. The US will not treat North Korea as an equal and meet them one on one and the US's allies are also highly concerned about the millions of refugees that a collapsed North Korean government would cause.
The USA has no plans to invade North Korea or nuclear bomb it into submission. North Korean terrorist efforts are far too closely scrutinized now to be effective. North Korea is a regional problem, Iraq was an international one.
