So, what do you think? They have the capability to make nuclear weapons and be a major threat to the USA and many other parts of the world, but they say that they just want to use nuclear power for, just that, power. They said they have no interest in war, but can we really trust them? Should we go over and monitor them or what? Post your opinions. | |||

Depends how you define "threat" really. | |||

Anything that is a threat is something that coudl hurt us. To ask me to define threat is very worthless as if you can't understand what a threat is you have some serious problems. (or are just a little kid). But, just for you: One that is regarded as a possible danger; a menace. (From dictionary.com) | |||

Not like we could do anything about it anyway.... we already tried to kick their ass once.... but that was in the name of Democracy... not eliminating WMD.... so maybe if we had UN inspectors over there that were kicked out the UN would sanction something.... but again... not really all that much you can do.... it's kind of a touchy situation.... they kick out inspectors.. it's for a reason... you attack them, they use that reason, lol |

Threat against what? US? Maybe... but I do wonder if they really dare to use nuclear weapons against the country which have most nuclear weapons in the world. But then you never know... This is another moment i'm glad that we are not a US ally. -.- (we wouldn't be a enemy target... hopefully) Somehow they maybe have Nuclear weapons not to use them, but just to scare "Don't attack us or we will bomb your asses". I wish we could get rid of all Mass-destruction weapons in the world... but that's so impossible. |

They may be a threat, but I don't think they will attack unless they have a good reason. But their little, isolated country is a strange political question. Why the heck do they want to create their land as a prison where almost no imformation comes in or out? They don't even have a reason for why, but I may know little about them at all... And unlike Sweden, we are allied with the US (through NATO). But I don't think they will come here... (I'm more afraid of terrorists from the Middle East, they have threatened Norway quite times) I haven't cast my vote yet, don't know exactly what I think... |

I don't believe NK is a threat. They wouldn't use their nukes offensively or to blackmail anyone, so.. it's not an issue. I don't see proliferation as a problem either, since I don't think NK really cares about destroying America or whoever and really doesn't want to be implicated in association with terrorists. Besides, if terrorists wanted nukes, they'd probably have an easier time getting them from Pakistan or something. While I wouldn't positively say there's no North Korean problem, I wouldn't say that they're a threat in any meaningful sense. |

unless they do something tous first, we need to keep our fat american asses out of there. Yeah, that's right. I see no reason for us to be directly involved unless they directly threaten america, or they have attacked us. Yeah, you say that's too late...but of course, like I said, there's ways of telling if they are hinting at something against us. and that dosnt uinvolve sending in hundreds of americans and bombing the fuck out of things. Gee, can you tell I'm not thrilled with how the world works these days? | |||

I think that North Korea is a threat to everyone....with that crazy guy as the leader over there....he would probably kill everyone and take over the world...but im guessing america would bomb the hell outta him before that, | |||

Originally posted by Ziffski Iraq never was a threat . North Korea could nuke the west coast. They probably wouldn't, but it's possible. Depends what you mean by threat, yeah . |

Making me try and define threat more just like a damn topicallity challenge. Anyways, I would guess that threat in this case would just mean that they could do damage and that there is a possiblity that they will. Anyways, I never justified my vote, them being a threat, and I guess I might as well do this now. I would say they are a threat because of the point that we aren't on the best terms with them. If they shot a nuke we could do nothing to stop it, but we could retaliate. Oh and Erkdog brought up another point. Why would they not allow inspectors to stay there if they have nothing to hide? |

Originally posted by DcahrakosNah, it would be a nuclear winter before he killed most of the earth's population. -.- I don't see any reason why they would nuke Sweden at least, but at least they are going to hurt our global economics if they bomb a big US city. I'm not worried, Nukes hadn't been used since the Second world war, and thoose are weak compared to the ones we have today... |

When I'm thinking of it, I don't think they will attack anyone at all, because if they do, they will be totally eliminated and killed by nuclear bombs from every corner of the world (woooo, careful with that! ) | |||
