It's all on you, America.

there will never be a nuclear war. no sane nation would want to bring about its own demise. if N.Korea lauches a nuke, there will be measures set up to disable the warhead before it can affect the globe, and by the time Kim Jong Il has blinked an eye, every nation around him, the US, and some in Europe, will descend upon his ass and burn the nation down. he will be slauthered and maimed, dragged about by the north koreans, then handed to the invading armies and finally be set free from his oppresive grip on the nation.

the fact he wants to open up dialogue with the west is a sign that he is no fool, but he is a maverick that isnt afraid to show off he can and has the potential to destroy the world at the cost of his own life. foolish, but IMO, admirable.
