North Korea sells Uranium to Lybia

It is called responsibility ooseven.  Invading N. Korea would trigger them to use nuclear weapons, contaminating most of the surrounding countries.  That is reckless.  By invading Iraq - which was the weakest of the 3 and the standout when it came to thumbing its nose at UN resolutions, the US sent a message to the other 2 countries.  If you pursue the course you are on - you will be dealt with by force.

Thank God, people like you don\'t make decisions of this nature.  I can only imagine what you would be saying if we had invaded N. Korea first and a huge radioactive cloud was hanging over S. Korea, Southern China and Japan.

I don\'t think it\'s being hypocritical to not attack N. Korea. I think they are two very very different situations. Iraq did not posses nuclear weapons which meant there was no chance of a nuclear attack from them. If someone were to attack N. Korea, Kim Jong is crazy enough to order a nuclear attack and it could start a nuclear war, something I\'m sure nobdy wants on their hands.

Yeah, the message definately got there. That\'s why their trying to pump each other up with more WMD.

How do you intend the military to deal with this situations with "force" How far can you stretch the military, noting that they will be there for probably a long time and that Iraq is FAR from safe?


If anything, diplomacy wasn\'t given a chance this time around and now we have two more terrorist harbors to worry about. I doubt the war in Iraq helped any. It\'s also very sad that after all the talk about the danger of Iraq, according to you, it was only a message.

Sad, thousands of Americans died just to send a message. Hasn\'t Bush ever heard of e-mail, you know the ones you send through the "internets"?
