"Nuclear weapons are not the monopoly of the U.S."

Heck no!

"First we got the bomb and that was good 'cause we love peace and Motherhood, then Russia got the bomb but that's OK 'cause the balance of power maintains that way, who's next?

Then China got the bomb but have no fears, they can't wipe us out for at least 5 years, who's next?

Egypt's gonna get one too, just to use on you-know-who!

Well, Israel's getting tense, wants one for self defense, the Lord's our shepard, says the Psalm, but just in case, we're gonna get a bomb!

We'll all try to stay serene and calm when Alabama gets the bomb!

Who's next? Who's next? Who's next? Who's next?!

Sacred war? aka jihad? I wonder how that goes with Buddhism. On the other hand, I can understand their anger. Who wants to have war drills in front of their house?

...a sacred war of our own style.

That's what happens when the youngsters take control - they try to "style" the "war." And they try to make it more meaningful - "sacred" - like a virgin having sex for the first time. Good on you, Young General! Keep this up, and despite your obvious deficiencies, you're sure to get a girl someday!

The north don't have the capacity to handle a war. They would be committing suicide if they intent war against the South or the US. They are just being stubborn as always.

Apparently somebody got into daddy's hidden stash of mushrooms and other mind altering drugs which probably gave him that heart attack in the first place. This fool seems to be blazing up the same smoke So Damn Insane inhaled when he declared the "mother of all battles" and yeah... that went well for that loser. NOT!

Why can't these people just threaten war like everyone else? Why these constant ridiculously laughable embelishments?

Why these constant ridiculously laughable embelishments?

I think they've got a student exchange program going with the Iranian national news agency.

@Serrano... for your information... Israel has the some of the most powerful nukes in the world and lots of them... not like the USA which has in the past, dismantled a few nukes as a show of peace.... of course Israel never wants to admit they have them... but USA and eveybody else knows they do.

I think the people here who ridicule the little fat dictator are missing the point.

The posturing and the wild threats are very well calculated. They both serve for domestic consumption and to extort more concessions from the outside.

The art has worked very well for his eraserhead dad, and the the pudgy son has learned it well.

How about threatening a sacred ignore in return?

Just remember, farting in the general direction of Pyongyang is also equivalent of delaration of war.

Stuff some rice in the mouth, wash it down with daddy's alcohol and go to bed with your security blanket, little boy. It must be really hard to live when nobody, including one's fellow countrymen/women don't pay attention. Another round for the elite!
