Defense Secretary Rumsfeld today said that he personally believes that the DPRK already has nuclear weapons. Now, as they say, it is too late. Damn. After all, the DPRK has weapons that can turn Anchorage and/or Valdez (terminus of the Trans-Alaskan Pipeline) into a glowing heap of rubble. Anybody want to volunteer to attack North Korea now? I only ask because many of you have suggested that we should not attack Iraq until it is demonstrated that Iraq already has nukes. So, do these same people now want to advocate attacking DPRK, if necessary, to disarm it? Just curious. And just imagine if a desperate DPRK regime, driven to desperation by famine, decides to attack the ROK again, only this time using chemical and biological weapons? What do we do? Anybody want to gamble the lives of Alaskans? Or better yet, the DPRK insists that the US withdraw its troops from Korea, or else. To back things up, it detonates a nuclear weapon on an uninhabited Aleutian island, and says that the next detonation will not be in an uninhabited area. What then? Yuck.
