Nukes in N. Korea and Iran with help from Russia? Should US Step In?

The nuclear threat of the past could could be closer than we thought. Here is a link to a "FoxNews Story" about N. Korea could have the capability to test a nuke very soon.

And...here is another link to an article about Russian scientist helping N. Koreans make ballistic missles that can carry nukes. They probably wont be able to hit the US from N. Korea but what if they gain access to one of those Subs China just bought from Russia. Is this a start to a New Cold War? Russia, N. Korea, and Iran? "The official also says the technology's being tested by Iran (search), since North Korea has imposed its own test ban."

Rumors have surfaced of N.Koreans threatning to test nuclear weapon if US doesn't except the N. Korean Nuclear Freeze. Could the N. Korean freeze be a trick to make us focus on another part of the world, like Iran?

Should the US get tough on N. Korea, Iran, and Russia for supplying them with Nuclear capability even though the US has the LARGEST stock piles of Nukes? I think we shoud do someting, the US may have the largest stock pile but we do not us that as a bargaining chip. Well i guess it is a given that we have them but we do not play that card.

I believe we will ultimately get invloved since the USA government wants to be the police of the world. I just hope that things don't escalate into another type of cold war.

Someones got to Police this crazy world we live in. It is strange that the US stops everyone from obtaining what the US has, like nukes, weapons of mass destruction and so on. There is one big difference though, the US doesn't use it to bargain, they may use the military but we don't threaten with the nuke. N. Korea mainly wants the nukes so that the world will pay attention to N. Korea. They want a piece of success like the Chinese have accomplished. I don't know much about Iran other than they are a threat and they are getting help from Russia in regards to the nuke carring capability of the ballistic missles. I think the US should step in, nukes are a form of terror. Cold War??? Nuke Attack Drills In Elementary School, does that bring back memories.
Eitherway, N. Korea could get to the US or Japan if it obtains one the radar quiet submarines that China urchased from Russia, link below.
