Since When is Harassment an Act of War? by Lance Winslow
Apparently North Korea has detonated a plutonium nuclear bomb underground as a test in northern North Korea. Many nations in the region are quite worried about the proliferation of nuclear weapons. Japan has already set up sanctions as an economic penalty for North Korea. China has given strong language and is also considering economic sanctions. The six party talks between many nations to prevent North Korea from manufacturing nuclear weapons to export them, seem to have failed.
North Korea says that the nuclear tests are so they can have defense of nuclear weapons in case the United States of America tries to invade. This of course is political rhetoric and they are going one step further, as the leader of North Korea is now stating that if the United States continues to harass them then they will consider that an act of war. Since when is harassments, an act of war? After all the United States has been harassed by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, the President of Iran and several other nations such as Cuba.
We do not consider harassment an act of war, nor do we consider political maneuvering to prevent the escalation and proliferation of nuclear weapons to be an act of war, that is an act of World Peace. With strong talk like that from North Korea and without the definition clearly stated as to what harassment is, one could assume that the leader of North Korea has in fact declared war on the United States of America because it considers us to be harassing them.
However one should consider that if North Korea continues to build nuclear weapons and export them to other nations such as Iran, which will give these WMD to the international terrorist organizations that they sponsor; then we must do something and if we cannot, use diplomacy to stop such things, as it will be considered an act of war, because it will be labeled harassment; then obviously we are already at war with North Korea. That is truly unfortunate indeed, as we do not need any more wars in the World right now. Please consider this in 2006.
