SEOUL, South Korea -- Amid a row over its nuclear weapons program, North Korea has fired a barb at Washington, saying it is ready to deliver "bitter defeat and death" to a threatening United States.The declaration on Saturday follows a warning from the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) who said North Korea was the closest member of U.S. President Bush's "axis of evil" to building a functional nuclear weapon in terms of technical capability.
North Korea's aggressive stance -- coupled with Washington's accusation on Friday that Iran was also "actively working" on a nuclear weapons program -- threatens to distract the U.S. as it tries to disarm Iraq. North Korea, Iran and Iraq make up Bush's so-called "axis of evil."
Condemnation has mounted against Pyongyang since it upped the ante in the nuclear row with the United States by saying on Thursday it would restart a nuclear reactor mothballed since 1994 after a deal with the then-Clinton administration.
"The DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea] remains unfazed as it has made full preparations to cope with the confrontation and clash with the Yankees," a commentary in the ruling party newspaper Rodong Sinmun said.
"The army and people of the DPRK with burning hatred for the Yankees are in full readiness to fight a death-defying battle," the commentary said, carried by the North's official Korean Central News Agency.
Aren't we technically still at war with North Korea?

Japan and Russia are still at war from world war II, and if i remember correctly the U.N. requested policing action on north korea, it wasn't a declared war, jus like vietnam.
Korean War was indeed declared, and you also are still only on a ceasefire.

Suchii had this to say about Punky Brewster:
"The gigantic radioactive hole formerly known as Korea."
The United States doesn't have a First Strike policy, and we would only respond with a weapon of mass destruction if a weapon of mass destruction were used against us.
Thus, we would become the radioactive hole first.

I say we arm rabid South Korean CSers and tell them to send 'em up a bomb at that reactor.
"Somebody set up us the bomb!"

If they can even hit us. Their ICBM will land somewhere in the Pacific. perhaps maybe fly south and hit Guam. Dun dun DUN
I don't think the USA will be the cause either. There are alot of other countries closer to them than us, countries that they would have a MUCH easier time hitting with a nuke...
