The article said they had two bombs. Two. How big a threat is that? I've never read that they have a system to deliver them thousands of miles to target. We don't need to send them a billion dollars.

Their economy is a mess. They do need humanitarian aid.

Two Bombs is still two bombs... You want one of em dropped on your town John?

And how are they gonna "drop them" Billy Boy? North Korea is an economic and technical backwater. No one actually believes that they have developed or purched the technology that allows an intercontinental strike. No one except for the paranoid white wingers of course...

China would be thrilled to have the dogs set free on their neighbor to the south, NOT. North Korea may be the most monitored piece of real estate on the planet. Any attempt on their part to deliver a nuclear weapon by convention means would be detected immediately. That would not include the possibility of unconventional means, such as suitcase bombs. The PRC is calling the shots.

Pro!!! Good ta see ya... Haven't ya ever read Tom Clancy? Who's ta say they don't mark the boxes "Hyundai Parts" and send em on over that way? Fed Ex the things. I know N.K. is a backwater, but never underestimate the motivation... Bad Guys are Bad Guys. Period.

What really got me with this article was them saying we dont have a deterent for war with them. We still could wipe em off the map.In the article it says they have ICBM's. If you remember there 3 stage missle test this summer.I dont understand the billion $ either, to me its if we are pratically paying russia, china and n korea off in a almost a nuclear blackmail. Asia is becoming a ghetto of nations (some strange stuff going on over there)

Hi guys. It is true that the..only..way..that..NK could..deliver..nukes..is..through..clandistine..methods but..I..doubt..that..the..bombs..they..have..are..small.. enough..to..be..shipped..Fed-Ex.. HOWEVER..Iran..will..be..quite..another..matter..within a..couple..of..years..especially..thanks..to..our.. "good friends" the Russians, and the..Chinese. You know, our most favored trading partners.
