I think if you see more of what's going on in North Korea, you can better understand why them having a nuke is reason enough to get people nervous. Of course someone is going to come along and say North Korea is a shangri la and they don't have concentration camps and Kim Jong-il is just a misunderstood freak with a bad haircut.
The U.S. won't attack unless S. Korea or Japan gets attacked...will that happen? Who knows...it might, but I'm sure the U.S. won't touch N. Korea until it does something stupid.

Yes.. saw the BBC doc.. and more than enough to get the idea what's going on there - insane society and conditions.
It is also not helpful, either to the world at large or the people of North Korea, to be persistantly threatened by the US trying to play hardball with an oppressive leadership while Amnesty International also has extensive reports and evidence of torture by the US. Some call that a very big mouth with plenty hypocracy stuffing it.
True.. who knows, but doubt even NK will be the instigator of nuclear weapons launching - why should they? They would be on a suicide mission.
