No.

In the 1990s 2 million North Koreans died of starvation. The present situation may dwarf those numbers as 6.5 million people face food shortages and starvation. North Korea is actively engaged in talks with the United States which may result in food aid. South Korea halted aid as it is waiting for North Korea to ask for it. South Korea has a new conservative government that is critical of North Korea, so the poor are suffering as governments hash out their ego contest.

In the past, North Koreans who escaped to China or South Korea reported cannibalism during particularly difficult food shortages.

No one can really predict if North Korea will attack the US at all because they are so secretive. It is possible, but it is also a possibility they will not. Due to sheer military power, if they do attack, they will most likely lose; there is always the possibility of other countries aiding the US if they were attacked, since the US has many allies when North Korea has few.
Potentially, yes North Korea is a potential threat to the United States. Threatening to bomb.

Threats have been made on many occasions over the years without any action being taken. However many people believe in the year 2013, they will have enough uranium to start a nuclear war. At this stage, their intentions are still unknown. They say that the farthest the bomb can reach is Alaska. This could still cause a HUGE war.

A relatively new nation with relatively new atomic technology about 1/50th the size of the US...and up against THE "originator" of ATOMIC WARFARE as well as the current and past most powerful nation on the globe (since 1945) with an absolutely unlimited amount of people (human population) & resources (trees, oil, steel, copper, gold, silver, lead, paper, cloth, food, gunpowder, guns, cars, land, jobs, plastic, etc. etc. etc.). Possible...but highly improbable.

Note: There are currently more trees in California NOW than there were during the pre-gold rush years of 1849; the trees that were planted in California during the 1950's & 1960's are all fully grown now. And no one's been cutting trees since! (Except for extremely rare and highly controlled situations). One sample reference: "Fire In Sierra Nevada Forests" A Photographic Interpretation of Ecological Change since 1849. By George E. Gruell (2001).

Depends.

If Kim Jong feels threaten about America, or his "paranoia" kicks in, we will.

But, Europe might get involved, and maybe some other countries will too.

Which means WWIII.

Probably not; the US isn't interested in fighting wars in Asia anymore. At least that part of Asia.

Asia may or not be allies. You never know. China could side with North Korea like they did in the Korean War. On the other hand Russia could side with North Korea as well. That would be the start of WW3. We have the UN. and NATO. Plenty of help.

Actually, a WW3 won't occur unless North Korea attacks South Korea.

Well your both wrong a bit. Russia said they wont get involved in this conflict. That i cant believe. Hopefully Russia stays out of it all. But they wont nuke South Korea. South Koreais too close to them and North Korea wont want to nuke part of themselves.

There have been ongoing skirmishes between North and South since July 1953, when the armistice was signed, but no outright war.

I hope there will be no war in the future but we may be charging head-first into a nuclear war with so-called "Rocket Man"

Why is north Korea going to bomb the US?

North Korea is not going to bomb the United States. North Korean War Ministers and Generals know that any attack on the US will result in North Korea being flattened into a pancake.The posturing is for a diplomatic response. The North Koreans have always desired bilateral negotiations with the United States because they believe that those negotiations would be more prestigious as well as giving them more benefits. The United States has always demanded that North Korea engage in six-party talks (US, N Korea, S Korea, Japan, China, and Russia) in order for the other countries to limit North Korean demands and come to a regional consensus. The North Koreans think that if they are crazy enough, the USA will give into their demands.
