If you go to CNN's home page, you will find an article where North Korea boasts it would win a nuclear war against the U.S.
Once you stop shaking your head at their little ego trip, you can read further down where it states they have "dismissed weapons inspectors, pulled out of the international nuclear anti-proliferation treaty and restarted its nuclear facilities. "

So. Both Iraq and North Korea have both broken treaties and agreements. Why shouldn't we be doing something about this? At what point is a military solution viable?

And if I recall correctly, the U.S. also pulled out of the anti-proliferation treaty, as well as several other treaties. Shouldn't someone be smacking us down?

It sure would.

Because we have weapons inspectors in Iraq now, then Saddam is back to keeping with the terms of the treaty. Therefore, we shouldn't go to war.

If the rallies that occurred this weekend tell us anything, it's that Bush won't have the support he needs to avenge his daddy any time soon.
