N Korea uses Iran war to justify keep its nuclear weapons

North Korea's Kim Jong Un has said the United States' war with Iran proves his country made the right decision to keep its nuclear weapons. In a speech to North Korea's Supreme People's Assembly published on Tuesday, Kim accused Washington of "acts of state sponsored terrorism and aggression," but did not mention Iran by name. "The present situation clearly proves" that North Korea was justified in rejecting what he described as US pressure and "sweet talk" to give up its nuclear arsenal, Kim said. He added that North Korea's nuclear status is now "irreversible."

For North Korea's leadership, the Iran conflict reinforces a long-held belief that countries without nuclear weapons are exposed to US military power, while those with them can deter it.

... For North Korea's leadership, the Iran conflict reinforces a long-held belief that countries without nuclear weapons are exposed to US military power, while those with them can deter it. ...

So, North Korea seems to be saying that the United States' unprovoked use of the US' large military power is a reason for nuclear proliferation?

It is.

Say what you want about "American Exceptionalism", if only the Biggest Bullies have Nukes and they Wage Aggressive Wars on anyone they Want....

It Is Rational to seek a Deterant.

If Iran already had the Bomb, with their Missile Capabilities?

Nobody would ---- with them.

Just like nNobody ----s with Lil'Kim.
