Islamic Fundamentalists are the biggest threat to the world and have posed much more threat to Americans that the Soviet Union or North Korea.
Tensions may have been high between the USA and USSR, but nobody was going to do anything about it because of mutually assured destruction. And since both the USA and USSR didn't want to kill other civilians or have many of their own killed, war never occurred.
Thats not the case with Islamic Terrorists. Their religious principles cause them to act horribly irrational, and if they ever get a weapon of mass destruction they won't hesistate to use it. The USSR with 10000 nukes is a much better alternative than than Al Queda with 1.
North Korea and South Korea have been in a civil war for decades now, but neither side is going to do something drastic. North Korea only does these things now, like secretly attack a ship or walk away from talks, because they know they can get away with it.
