Nuclear War Imminent!
Well it certainly seems that a nuclear confrontation on the korean peninsula is more and more likely every day.
Every day there are more threats and more big words from both sides, the US and the UN have condemned and sanctioned North Korea for their tests of missiles and nukes as much as is possible, and North Koreas official reaction is to say they are going to produce more nukes.
North Korea said over one-third of 8,000 spent rods have been reprocessed and the plutonium extracted would be used to make nuclear weapons. The country could harvest 6-8 kilograms of plutonium, more than enough for a nuclear bomb. It is currently believed that they have enough to build half a dozen bombs, more than enough to devestate the korean peninsula.
It has been said from the north that any attempt to stop and search ships suspected of carrying nuclear weapons will be taken as an act of war. This has been sanctioned by the UN and is apparently going to be carried out by the US and South korea in the near future.
The sanctioning of this searching is aimed at stopping North Korea from being able to fund its uranium enrichment program by selling weapons.
So to sum this up, unless i have it all wrong, please correct me if i do, Everyone in the world wants North Korea to pack away the nukes and stop threatening to blow everyone to smithereens, but the “dear leader” is essentially saying “no, i wont be peaceful, i need to be able to threaten world war 3, they started it!” im just waiting for the US to obliterate them then they will go crying to the UN “Moommyyy he hit me!”, seriously, my 18 month old son acts better than that.
here is a recent news broadcast which pretty much sums up the latest actions/reactions.
