N Korea is only doing this now to be threatening
We cant let others get into the fold..... its just too much of a nightmare - it really is End Of The World stuff

Thats a foolish argument until you have destroyed your own weapons..
It would be like a contruction company trying to ban nailgun's for any other construction companies... and continuing to use them themselves..
Of course if your on top because of nuclear weapons your not going to want anyone else to have them either..
I would also have to disagree with your opinion that north korea is doing this "to be threatening". The u.s.a. has openly threatened north korea to follow the rules the u.s.a. has set in place. The only option is to want to defend yourself..
If your next door neighbour bought a cannon and pointed it at your place , and threatened you with it everytime you went to work , would you just sit back and let him ? furthermore , would you let him tell you that you cant build your own cannon ? furthermore if all his friends said you cant have a cannon , and they all had cannons pointed at your house , would you just agree with them.. ?
I would say for starters if you want me to stop building my cannon , you should at the very least point your cannon's in the other direction, and to be fair you should dismantle ALL your cannons..
