North Korea: Potential Terrorist Country
Located in East Asia on the northern half of the Korean Peninsula is North Korea, formerly ruled by supreme ruler Kim Jong-il. Terrorism was initiated by the ruler during the 1980’s making multiple attacks on parts of his own country. After his death on December 17 2011, his son Kim Jong Un had taken over the rule thus carrying on the terrorism today making threats to bomb America. The first threats made was on Thursday, March 7th 2013.
North Korea targets any U.S allies because of the separation blame they put on America. During the Korean war America aided South Korea, fighting alongside of them. North Korea didn’t approve. They looked to unite with South Korea, but at the same time keep their government system with only one dictator. The U.S help establish capitalism in South Korea therefore causing North Korea to become assailants of America.
The U.S has been performing exercises to respond to the nuclear threat. Along with the exercises the US has also strengthened its missile defence capabilities on its west coast. America is only fighting back by right and is on very high alert. In the long run, it can be said that the U.S is prepared for any nuclear war North Korea starts.
