How should the United States and other nations deal with North Korea and Iran and their development of nuclear weapons technology. The chief of The Los Angeles Times.
“In 1984, George Orwell wrote of a world where the only color to be found was in the propaganda posters. Such is the case in North Korea. Images of Kim Il-sung are depicted in vivid colors. Rays of yellow and orange emanate from his face: he is the sun”. Barbara Demick. There are many reasons why the United States and other nations should come together and stop North Korea and Iran from getting nuclear weapons. One thing to remember is what would happen if they launched nuclear missiles at a country. That country would probably launch them back then that’s an excuse for more countries to launch their missiles. There is a danger with North Korea and Iran having a nuclear and ballistic trade relation.

It could go many different ways, say they target a major country like Russia then Russia with all the nuclear weapons their country has could destroy North Korea, which isn’t the bad part. In the result of North Korea being destroyed, when that country is destroyed its allies will launch missiles at Russia then again Russia will launch them back. Eventually Nuclear Warfare will start and the death total would increase rapidly. For example if the United States got involved which we probably would some country could launch a missile at say New York City where 8.406 million people live most of those people would die. Another major country that would most likely get involved would be China someone could target Hong Kong where 7.188 million people live most of them would die. So if most of the people in just those two cities were to die the death total would already be 15.594 million people. There is also the risk of countries targeting government

The key to understanding this contradiction is to separate Eisenhower’s contemporary political motivations from the consequences of the president’s choice to pursue international proliferation of peaceful nuclear technology.
