We had one for Iraq.

Whatever happened to the "coalition of the willing" to "disarm" North Korea?

Only really stupid people and young-earth creationists actually believe that all conditions are always constant. The differences in these two situations far outnumber the similarities.

Yeah, like the whole "One of them poses a threat, and the other doesn't" type deal.

Since when was NK considered not a threat anyway?

Same time the Mafia wasn't....

Will the 'We have nukes and will sell them to the higest bidder.' ploy work to extort the rest of the world?

The main reason for not attacking NK is China. China does NOT want a US puppet government on it's doorstep. It much rather has a nice old cruel dictatorial communist regime.

So does Iran, and Saudi Arabia.

Not communist, but significantly dictatorial.

They will never take you seriously with answers like that one.

I won't be losing sleep over not being taken seriously by people that stupid.

I'd like to know what you think about why NK isn't a threat. And don't say China. I wouldn't trust them to keep a lid on Lil' Kim at any time, since they oppose everything that the US says.

Everything. Indeed.
How nice it must be to live in such a simplistic world. I envy you.
