According to NYtimes.com article North Korea said last tuesday that they had just finished preparations to launch a satellite into orbit. Hearing this has made South Korea and the United States more irritable because North Korea has been defiant when it came to them not prepping the launch. American officials have said that the North korean and American agreement is being violated when they actually do decide to launch it. Most analysts see it as a cover up for testing missile technology, which in the long run be used to deliver nuclear weapons. Secretary of state Hillary Clinton said in a press conference that North Korea should live up to its commitments and obligations from earlier in the treaty without really going into detail about what retaliations the U.S would have besides restricting food resources from them.
My whole deal with this article is that this issue could really turn into a war. Its obvious N. Korea knows that the U.S fears what they have going on over there, its only a matter of time when things really get ugly because right now I feel as if they are pushing the U.S's buttons. I wouldnt be surprised if a war is caused because of this conflict btw these two countries. The united states should find a solution real fast because its not a matter of if its a matter of when it happens. This is a major social issue because this could end up a nuclear war and put everyone in danger.

This North Korea and United States conflict almost scares me more than the issues the U.S. has in the war going on now with other countries. I would not be surprised of a war sparking up between the two countries but I hope it does not because it seems as if North Korea will go above and beyond to annoy and retaliate against the U.S. I do not even want to think about a nuclear war. Can't we all just get along.
