North Korea has informed America they would start the rebuilding of the Yongbyon nuclear instillations. The US says this is a violation of a six party truce signed last year.

Do you know what I think of when I hear this? North Korea is using the valid choice to get money or some kind of incentive. By threatening to build a nuke or the instillation will worry the West (the US in particular), so that they offer an incentives pack (like with Iran). I would like to say, 'Good work' North Korea. By this I don't mean I support the building of a nuke or that stuff, by that I mean they found the way to bribe the West. If the US continues the giving of an incentives pack, this will get worse and worse, because you give North Korea the upper hand. North Korea obviously does not want war, nobody does, but at least North Korea knows that their goal to conquer S. Korea is long gone and that the West doesn't want war because of China and they are using China, their nuclear capabilites and huge military as an anchor to hit the West in the piggybank or in the barracks.
The US is in a dilemma because of this issue, North Korea will continue to 'play' with the US, as will Iran. Only because there will be no war (except if that Dutch newspaper is right) and because the West will give in to most demands.
