North Korea...

Kind of a tense situation right now. They have weapons with enough range to reach our shores, and we have a guy in office who does nothing but apologize to all these piss ant countries.

Thoughts?

Scary situation. So many countries have nuclear capabilities and I think the US government does not really take it as seriously as they should. We help so many countries but neglect to take care of our own.

My daughter is worried.She now regrets her wasted vote.This country is so screwed because of the current regime I really don't care what happens anymore.Feel bad for my daughter and her husband they have nothing to look toward to .At least I lived through the good times in this once great country of ours.It is a shame that our nation is becoming a third world country fast.

With all of the voter fraud last election, I have no faith in voting anymore. I think voting from the rooftops is about all that is left.

This is so true that's why I'm glad we never had kids this world is going to hell and yes we did live in good times that are turning bad quickly. I hope if any of these countries pull anything like a nuclear attack we level them. Our country better take any threat seriously there's too many countries out there that hate us. It's time to "Take Care of the USA".

If we didn't meddle in every other country's affairs, we wouldn't have so much to worry about. (or pay for) US foreign policy is to pick the winners and losers in every skirmish worldwide, and when we help their enemy, the losing side always blames us.

Quoted for facts! I wish we would end all foreign aid, and mind our own business. Mainly worry about protecting our own borders.

Even the winning side blames us sometimes. Every time we shoot a bullet, fire a rocket or drop a bomb we make another enemy. Not just the people we're shooting at but everyone that lives there. We'll never make friends in the middle east but the longer we keep messing in their sandbox the more they all hate us.

N. Korea has been threatening military action for decades. Not sure if their new leader is just trying to rally the people or is dumb enough to actually fire off a nuclear weapon. It would be suicide if he did. Chances are slim they could hit the US with one and odds our defenses would knock it out first but there would have to be some type of retaliation if they tried. God help them if they fired a weapon at Israel, which they've threatened. We would retaliate in some fashion but probably not at a nuclear level. I don't think Israel would hesitate to strike back with nukes if N Korea fired one at them.
