I think that the above two persons are deluded. I think that North Korea is fully capable of selling nuclear technology to terrorists. This is what the US should worry about the most. Another Korean war is unlikely since their leadership in their 80s would remember how terrible it was for them. North Koreans are clever and they will not seek war but will seek money from third world nations by selling weapons. This is what the U.S must stop completely. Finally, this is a duty of the U.S. Also, please stop aiding them, The U.S. must stop all forms of humanitarian aid. These are used for weapons build-up only.

North Korea is another bogey-man type of third world imaginary threat hyped up by the corporatist military complex in the media and government. Truth is NK is a backwards nation hardly able to feed it’s people, let alone be a threat to the US mainland. NK’s missile tests have been mired by technical failures. I highly doubt that the NK Taepodong is any threat at all even to Hawaii.

This info apparently is taken from ‘official’ US sources, which are no doubt highly biased towards making war on NK.

From the bigger perspective, the US would be interested in NK’s activities since gaining control over that territory would bring it much closer to it’s goal of the encirclement of Russia and China and the central Asian republics.

A little distraction from the curly haired guy in NK is useful. He actually has a lot to be grateful from the US, a lot of this so-called dangerous technology was actually given to them by the US.

There is nothing at all “unpredictable” about this “isolated country” (N.Korea) as a real study + appreciation of its 1,000′s of years of Han history will prove.

There is really only one Korea but it is the chronically “arrogant and cocky flexing” of the USA’s “military muscle” on the Korean peninsula since 1950 (with the UN’s blessings) which is at the heart of the problem today just as the US “eagle’s wingspan of 10,000 miles” was in 1898 when the USA invaded both Cuba + the Philippines thus giving itself a naval base in the Western Pacific/China Sea for its gunboat diplomacy.

The inevitable result was the rise of Japan, the defeat of the Russian fleet, the attack on Pearl Harbor + WW2 in the Pacific, uhh. We are still seeing the consequences of decisions in the 1940′s -50′s with developments today as the N.Koreans are obsessed with the threat posed by 26,000 US troops permanently stationed in S.Korea + 1,000′s more on nearby islands nominally under the control of Japan.

There is actually no need for talk of “a dark future”….. it is simply time for the USA to take its forces home + to finally stop pretending that the world is its oyster to play with or destroy at its whim (especially its major financial creditors). Let’s not kid ourselves that this is not really all about China + Western prejudice as N.Korea is merely only a buffer state in world affairs.
