Any country with nukes and a disdain and distrust for both its own people and any country not like them is definitely a threat. Look back at history - the biggest threats were the ones that did terrible things to their own people.
We're talking about a country with 100k+ CCTVs monitoring their own people, loaded with anti-US and anti-South Korean propaganda, forbids internet usage, starves its people, has a top 5 military while being the size of Pennsylvania, and enslaves 200k+ of their own people falsely.
What evidence do you have that they are not a threat?
- kzrdude 10y agoThe context is the USA. They are not a threat to them. North Korea is a despicable concentration camp of a country, but not a threat to the U.S.
- exclusiv 10y agoYou responded with no argument or evidence. Glad you at least acknowledged they don't care about their own citizens and have a terrible human rights record.
- therealx 10y agoIn what scenario is North Korea a threat to the US? Their ICBMs can't reach the US, and their military is similarly unequipped to be mobile.
- exclusiv 10y agoDepends who you ask. They either already have the capability now or will in the near future. Hawaii is much closer anyway. Remember what happened when Hawaii was last attacked? We've already deployed radar out of Hawaii earlier this year so we believe it's a threat [1]. "North Korea is now in possession of a nuclear intercontinental ballistic missile that can reach the US mainland, according to a senior US military official." [2] "Despite Pyongyang's apparent progress on a warhead, it doesn't have good enough missile and rocket technology to deliver a nuke -- at least not yet, says Bruce Bennett, a senior defense analyst at the Rand Corporation think tank."

- kzrdude 10y agoYou're lying, I said the opposite. They are running a despicable concentration camp of a country over there.
- adrienne 10y agoSo ... just like the USA, then?
