This article is about the North Korean passion of nuclear weapons, and what the world and the United States are going to do about it. Though North Korea has a population of only 23 million and does not pose as much of a threat, it did last month. What called the world's attention? It was the firing and explosion of their first nuclear weapon. The number one worriment in the mind of the United States is not the fact that North Korea is rolling with the big daddy counties owning nuclear weapons but the fact that Korea has a tendency to distribute whatever it has in order to get paid. North Korea could go onto a selling spree to whoever pays the country.
If Korea does this that else will end up with Korean nuclear technology, it can be leading to terrorism. There is no doubt that the American army can defeat the Koreans but the worry lies in that Koreas one million man army lies just 35 miles away from their border and the capital Seoul, South Korea's capital. Tension between the two countries date back to more than fifty years, and North Korea could use nuclear weapons to influence or enforce their government. Just imagine this North Korea problem has happened when the world is already dealing with a crazy country, Iran. Say that enforcement rules were imposed on North Korea and they worked, all the refugees from their would flee to China, and South Korea, a setback that neither of the countries want, they are already very limited in space. An expert says that all this fuss about having a nuclear program is just so Kim Jong IL can protect his government form. He wants to protect his country from invasions from bigger more powerful rivals including the United States, China, Japan, and South Korea.
Personal Reflection
In my view, from the United States, we have every privilege to intervene on that has nuclear weapons or not. National Security is very large in this country and the last thing that the US wants is for a long term problem, Iran, to mix in with a growing one. If these two problems mesh together it just might be the end for us. Speaking the truth I cannot really blame North Korea either. If we have the privilege to protect our livelihood, then so do they. Only problem is intentions are unclear, that little part of the puzzle that is left for us to guess is what sparks the world in thinking that if North Korea keeps its business a secret then it must be worthwhile discovering. If intentions are clean it's smart to take the supervision off the back of your own country from the whole world. This situation has two sides that I can lean to, and I think that the last detail that the world needs, and most importantly I need, is, "What is North Korea up to? Why work behind the rest of the world for such a long time, and in a matter of seconds is the world's #1 scoped country? Why fear the invasion of other countries? What is going on in the country that would make others want to invade?" These are all simple questions that have many answers and that we might not discover until a significant event occurs. It affects not just one country, the possession of nuclear weapons; it affects the world and the safety of the people in the chosen country, and outside the country.
