Title: Just to bring up a point...

What will everyone who is all-for this war against Iraq say if we are hit with  a Saudi-funded terroist attack, that doesn\'t even invlove Iraq? IMO, that is a real threat, yet we seem to have stopped focusing on anything besides Iraq.

It is all about priorities. They deal with whichever is deemed the biggest threat first. North Korea is also a problem but the Iraq situation needs dealing with first.

Yes, Iraq does need to be dealt with in someway, but if you look at the facts, Saudi paid the way for those 9/11 terroists to get to us, North Korea is threatening war, and we are attacking Iraq. I understand they are liable to give weapons to terroists, but so is any other country with weapons, and we have sat bye and basicaly watched other countries sell weapons and said nothing..

Hamster, I usually really respect your thoughts and opinions, but I do not think NK is threatening with war. I do think they are trying to provoke the US to attack first in order to make them look worse in the world.

Wow, you hit the nail on the head right there. I agree with you 100%. Isn\'t that also what the terrorists are doing though?

Not really IMO since the terrorists dont give a shit(for a lack of better words) what the rest of the world thinks of them. They are out to prove who they attack to be bad, but not how they are good.

Actually they do care how they look towards the Islamic world, but you are right in that don\'t give a shit about what every non believer thinks.  

As for N. Korea, as luckee said they are trying to provoke something and portray the US as the aggressor.
