North Korea almost certainly will not attack the United States or its armed forces or its distant territories with conventional or nuclear weapons. The costs to Kim Jong-un and his country would be monstrous. Kim’s hyperbolic rhetoric is much more a message to the North Korean people than to Americans, and his hyperbolic language is like his father’s and grandfather’s, and means little. What is highly likely, however, is Kim selling nuclear technology to truly dangerous adversaries of the United States—some of which the United States will be less likely to deter. Nuclear nonproliferation has been an essential part of United States national-security strategy since 1945. It has been a largely successful policy—there are only eight nuclear capable countries in the world and half of them are not U.S. adversaries. The United States (and most other countries) desires no more nuclear capable states.

This worries me too. Just another reason to stop Little Fat kim.
Of course. You think Kim wouldn’t love to sell the technology to terrorists and rogue nations?
more chicken little hysteria from the neo-cons
I think we are searching for things to worry about. If terrorists wanted to get the bomb, you don’t think they could get one out of Pakistan?
I am still waiting for the suitcase nukes that were the talk of the town on 9/11.
We should be looking at how to bring our troops home and getting our “allies” to protect themselves.
A Bomb goes to Islam. They obliterate a million democrats, and the Hive of Villiany they live in. (I'm sure there are Good People in SF, or Chicago, I just can't name one, offhand...)
We can EXTERMINATE the DPRK, AND Islam, and go, innocently, before the World Court, and say they shot first...
A million anti-Constitutionals seems to be a small price to pay for world peace.
The expansion of nuclear capable states brought on by treasonous American politicians will bite America one day. Calling people Chicken Little and Neocons does not make the problem go away.
My bet is Iran is already deeply involved in Little Kim’s bomb
So they’re talking about Iran, whom they REALLY want the USA to attack.
Fine.
Why doesn’t ISRAEL do it..?
She has 200 or more devices.
