       I have to wonder what would happen if we just used a global equivalent of the "hide" button on this goofball.

Well, they did it under the ground.
At least they aren't the ones that can boast they are the first country to use it on civillians.

I care as much about this as I care about the winner of American Idol - ie. I don't give a toss.

You DON'T care about American Idol?

Why, that's downright un-American.

Wait, you aren't American are you?

Without us, your world would make no sense to you [8D] .

      The world would make perfect sense, Kitten.  It would be boring, but it would still make sense.  Besides, if there weren't any foreigners, we'd just have to invent some.

WASHINGTON – North Korea's nuclear test makes it no likelier that the regime will actually launch a nuclear attack, but it adds a scary dimension to another threat: the defiant North as a facilitator of the atomic ambitions of others, potentially even terrorists.
It also presents another major security crisis for President Barack Obama, already saddled with wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and a nuclear problem with Iran.
Obama spoke Monday night with the president of South Korea and the prime minister of Japan, assuring both leaders that the U.S. remains committed to the defense of their nations. The White House said in a statement that Obama and South Korean President Lee Myung-bak agreed that the test is "a reckless violation of international law that compels action in response."

...hmmm....is international law something that only applies to countries other than the US? Don't get me wrong, i'm not wildly happy with North Korea.......but it's like the business with Iran. If any country wants to apply the standards of international law to others, it ought to apply those standards to itself....and that opens a whole new can of worms.

It's all fun and games until someone loses a city...
