Is this a good idea? Here's part of an article in case you didn't read about it.
SEOUL, South Korea -- Britain has called on the international community to isolate North Korea, on the same day the communist country's state-run media said for the first time a nuclear program was in place.
British Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon on Wednesday said ships and aircraft suspected of delivering materials for use in weapons of mass destruction should be intercepted.
The blockade, which Hoon envisaged would involve a coalition of 11 countries, should also be extended to vessels and aircraft suspected of carrying contraband such as drugs that could help finance North Korea's nuclear ambitions, he said.

Moreover, what or who would be the reason why countries all over the world suddenly feel the need to acquire nuclear weapons?
So many tired cliches apply to this situation..
Flies, honey and vinegar..Dont back a wounded animal into a corner..
It seems the US, and us now, want to push NK into war.
That's actually the only thing that might prevent a war from happening into the first place. One thing is rolling over the desert against a piss-poor, ill-equipped army and another facing having one's arse kicked. The US and Britain would be very foolish to attempt anything against NK.
I truly hope you're on something.
And why would that be?
You know he refuses to dig under deeply into the hypocrisies to see what the real agenda(s) at work are. So what's the point?
For the facts you just wrote.
AAAAAaaaaand because Britian and the US are morally superior. :yes:
Utter rubbish!
You are in dire need of experiencing the wider world abroad little man!
Admit it.:D
No we can have proper discussions and debates with out your ill informed brainwashed nonsense!
It does seem like the UK want to force NK into war..it wouldn't be as easy a war as against Iraq.
But yes, it seems that the self-rightousness of Anthony Blair PM and his government has gotten into their heads... Mind you, I very much doubt the British or the Americans are really going to risk invading a country with capability of kicking their arses, at least in home soil. It's all very good and brave carpet-bombing a few thousand ill-equipped poor souls and rolling over them in the desert... this wouldn't be quite the same.
Anyways, off on holiday for a week so I'll see you all next Thursday.
