you are really some form of idiot if you think america should be preparing for world war 3 with Korea, NO ONE will back North Korea in a war, not even China, their kind of friend. Do your research on Korea's current state, their nuclear capability, and the history of bomb threats from them in the past and you will feel silly that you ever worried. It seriously isn't that big of a deal. This isn't supposed to be an aggressive message, btw. Just don't worry about north korea

Thanks for ‘calming’ me down I suppose.

While I am not worried, it’s certainly interesting to think that back in 1991, children were being told in classrooms that there is no concern of Iraqi missiles hitting the United States mainland. Children were fearful of it then.. But in 2013, we don’t really talk about how North Korean missiles will not reach the United States. Should we not be telling our kids the same thing today that we did then?

While I am certainly a ‘form of an idiot’ I don’t know what form I take. And you may turn out to be 110% correct that North Korea cannot do anything right. While they cannot feed their population they can now launch some missiles and tests that surprised experts in 2012. (While their famines have not helped, the United States and UN embargoes on them certainly have aided in them not being able to eat)

And finally, this is not meant to be an aggressive response, I certainly appreciate your message. But I ask this.. if the United States should not be preparing for war, why does it somehow seem we are? Missiles to Guam? Chinese troops on the border .. American troops on the 38th parallel. All getting ready. For what?

Maybe for nothing. Maybe it’s all a game. A chess match.

But somehow a chess match has to end, right? Either with blink.. or brink.

I often feel silly worrying about the things I do. In this circumstance, I certainly hope I’ll feel silly about Lil Kim .. So far I only feel silly about Dennis Rodman being in North Korea.

But if someone like Peter King gets his way, we could be at war due to our own actions and not Pyongyang. That worries me, too.
