So Kim Jong has nukes.
There are only seven other nations than North Korea which have tested nuclear weapons, and for good reason. Today in Hiroshima and Nagasaki there are still families who are suffering birth defects and cancers from the effects of the bombs dropped there during world war two. That's in addition to the 200,000+ people who died in the aftermath of the explosion.
The nuclear bomb is the only weapon around whose usage instructions state: do not use. Many other wealthy nations who could develop nuclear weapons don't do so because they're simply too powerful and destructive for use. And if an attack were to happen, it could unleash a powerful nuclear war that would topple civilisation as we understand it today.
And now, an angry dictator of a small communist country has access to this level of technology. And he hates everyone.
Should we have invaded North Korea earlier? Absolutely. Kim Jong thinks America wants to keep all the nukes for itself. What he doesn't realise is that America wants every single nuke eradicated. Everyone educated enough to know what one is wants that. They're too powerful a thing for human beings to be in possession of. We're just barely mature enough not to use them, and that doesn't count for all of us.
I think if they had the chance, the US would go back in time, invade Japan by hand, and not invent the thing at all. It is a technology with the power to end us all. It's the first time in human history we've ever had a device for our own mass extinction.
And now an angry dictator of a small communist country has access to this level of technology.
Today you'll see condemnations of the blast fro every nation in the world, including a biting condemnation from China, a previously strong ally of North Korea. What they're all not saying, but thinking, is "Damn, too late". This day will go down in history as the day nuclear technology got loose. The day the cat got out of the bag. Only seven special custodian nations had access before. Now a rogue state has nukes, they can sell them to Osama bin laden. They can nuke at will. We might nuke them back, but Kim Jong doesn't care. He lets his people starve in their millions anyway. They can help other more wild nations develop their own technology.
Today people, nukes are loose for the first time. When the Americans saw the blasts in Japan, they realized they'd gone too far, and the technology would have to be controlled or we would all suffer. So far, they've kept it under wraps. Today, they failed. It's out.
