It's disappointing. You have a bat-**** crazy dictator handing off his regime to a son who wants to make his mark on the world. What better way than igniting a war and demonstrating the north's power?
I don't buy that this is a bluff that can be disregarded. At this point any threats or quotes need to be taken as serious as possible and I think all countries interested in peace need to get really bloody serious really fast, and start putting the pressure on China. This is ridiculous. Even if N Korea is only "potentially" nuclear capable- they appear willing and ready to drop them.
How is this not front page red alert news? The US and many other countries are going to be involved here.

Christmas time, bad economy, not to hip president, ect
Some much crap is going on now with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that the Americans don't want nor Care about Korea.
I hope to god that this doesn't lead to a war. If it does lead to a war I hope to god that we stay away from it.
