Fact is everyone has a right to nukes. No one country has the right to say no or blah blah blah. The attitude out there is "if America has nukes why cant we?", and seriously why cant they? America test fires nukes all the time, and no one says anything, but if its Iran or North Korea its a big no-no (hypocracy). Cant wait to see the complaints and excuses when an Latin American or African country gets a nuke. XD

World war 3 incoming!

Don't worry guys, I'm still alive and safe. I managed to avoid the rocket by hiding on the beach all day.

The only country that have shown they are disgusting enough to drop an atomic bomb on civilians is the USA. If the west are allowed to fire missiles, North Korea has every right.

North Korea failed in its attempt to get a satellite into space after a rocket launch early on Sunday, US and South Korean officials say.

Two stages of the rocket and its payload landed in the Pacific Ocean, a US military statement said.

Hours earlier North Korea claimed the satellite had successfully been put into orbit and was transmitting data.

And more interestingly: However, both China and Russia have urged restraint in the international response.

And if it actually was a satellite?
shooting it down would have looked like a weakness.

No it would not have.  NK is clearly violating UN ICBM regulations that prohibit them from launching them.  In any case, satelite or missile, it was launched upon a Taepodong-2 ballistic missile that threatens the greater Pacific area.

^^Sooo, America can threaten anyone it wants and its okay...anyone else who tries to be on equall footing does the same and its not okay? See, this is what pisses off people in other countries. Hypocracy. Iran is a member and signed up to the non-proliferation bla bla bla. Israel hasnt and yet has over 200 nukes, some donated by you know who and yet its okay....Care to fill me in...

I respect America, and its people and its achievements and all but this holier than thou "we decide who does what" attitude is really uncool. America has ambition, thats what made it a great country. So whats wrong with other countries having ambition? whats wrong with other countries going to space? launching rockets? developing technology? being a super power? wanting status etc etc America does it, Europe does it, Japan does it, China does it but why cant Arabs or people you dont like? Who gives you the right? If you dont respect others why should they respect you?

OK, here's the deal.  IRAN IS A HARBORER OF TERRORISTS AND IS MAKING NUCLEAR ICBMS.  NORTH KOREA STARVES AND MURDERS ITS OWN PEOPLE.  Reverse the situation and see if you would not want help.  Obama even called out  NK's bullshit.  We need to make sure that 1. NK does not have the chance at getting nukes (which it quasi-does already) and 2. Iran does not start WWIII.  Both are ROGUE REGIMES. 

Does that clear it up?
