North Korea-Japan's problem?

The test bomb that were previously held by North Korea is something that USA won’t accept and the UN security council say that it’s something that has to be taken seriously. The extensive consequences that might occur probably depends on how the world reacts. How will for instance USA react? They can’t react against a country with nuclear bombs. It’s a difference to invade a country like Iraq without any nuclear weapons or bombs. Probably, USA won’t be able to do anything.

If USA won’t be able to deal with North Korea, than Japan is the most probable country to clean up this mess. Shinzo Abe is the new prime minister who, compared to Junichiro Koizumi, wants to change the international politics and the North Korean nuclear bombing is used by the Koreans to change the opinion in Japan.
Not only Japan but South Korea and Taiwan, with support of USA will be the countries forced to develop nuclear bombs.

What’s the point with the test bombing? Probably to get the attention of USA. What kind of reactions do they want? Maybe to return to the six part negotiations?

North Korea has been occupied by Japan and in war with the USA. The country is closed so not much is known about the country. The ideology is independence and to hate USA is one of the main conditions for the ideology. The Bush administration made it easy to do so. The leader is to be admired and to brain wash children to praise the leader is something that makes the country dangerous. The country is a pure threat to democratic countries. Communist countries where the people are starving and the leader is considered to be god should never under any circumstances be accepted. That’s why this ought to be taken seriously.

I am not an expert in foreign policy, but durring the Cold War, the policy of the West was one of containing the Communist threat. N. Korea may have nuclear weapons and deserve even more sanctions if not a total blockade. However, besides N. Koreas ability to sell their nuclear weapons, they are well contained and do not pose a threat of spreading their authoritarian, Communist system to neighbouring countries which are thriving under Capitalism. Eventually, if even food subsidies are cut off and N. Korea falls so far behind the rest of the World, they will dissolve. Currently, a nuclear power like N. Korea cannot be shut down without a complete nuclear assault which would probably kill most of the population of N. Korea. Nobody wants this scenario, and for the moment it is better just to leave them alone for now especially since they are well contained.

Diana, you've got it right, although, if anyone will clean up this mess it will be China. Japan and S. Korea have an important role to play, although their influence over N. Korea is considerably less than China's. Of course, the US has a large part to play too.
ALso, what mini-Mao wants is a 1:1 agreement with the US to ensure that his regime will survive, not a return to the six-party talks. This won't happen though because it would simply reward N. Korea for defying the international community and building an atomic bomb.

pace,
The problem to the solution of this problem is that the most solutions will probably include effecting the civil population in N. Korea and that is not acceptable. The thing about N. Korea is that it is a poor country, they would lack resources to go on with something else than nuclear weapons. Dropping nuclear weapons means that they might not continue since they’d probably destroy the world or something…The world would be a better place without communists!

I don't know about China, maybe you're right but the thing is that sice Shinzo Abe, other countries are moore willing to co-operate with Japan. And in a way, N. Korea is still occupied by Japan in a way.
