    Well it seems as though no matter what we all think, NK as of this morning is doing it's damndest to push the situation closer to War...

    I still do not believe Sanctions are morally nor legally right, I don't recognize the "Authority" of the UN to enforce their will on a Soveriegn country, if NK wants to have Nukes they can, if they ever use a Nuke then I guess we won't be discussing them much longer after that other then to say that burned out peninsula used to be where the Koreas were

    They were in the 20th century until 1953, it was at this time the CIA backed an insurrection against their democratically elected form of government and installed the Shah, for the sake of the Iranian-Anglo Oil co. now known as BP. With the Shah and his secret police they definitely became 11th century.

    As a mediaevalist, I feel I should be defending the honour of the 11th century...

    I fail to see that it has changed much.

    I have had a growing concern when it comes to NK and Kim Jong Un, but at the end of the day it's still just the same old threats... They've been doing this for so long, that it has become easy to just ignore it, as we have been doing...

    I do have to also agree with what Glen said. We have no right to hold nukes ourselves yet tell others they cannot possess them. No matter how batshit crazy they come off as...

    Someone mentioned the coup of 1953 in Iran... And people wonder why the Middle East and so many others around the world hate us.
