Why is South Korea threatening US with nukes?

South Korea is not threatening anyone with nuclear weapons; it is North Korea that is doing the threatening. The motive behind the North's activities is to press for humanitarian aid using the threat of nuclear war as incentive for the West to provide this aid (like a ransom).

Why didn't the us want to use atomic bombs on Korea?

By the time of the Korean War, the Soviet Union had nuclear weapons and was allied with China and North Korea. Using a nuclear weapon there could have triggered a nuclear war between the US and the USSR.


Is North Korea going to use a nuclear weapon to attack the US?

It is very unlikely that North Korea will launch a nuclear weapon against the United States, but the arbitrary and capricious nature of the North Korean government means that there is no real guarantee that North Korea will not launch a nuclear weapon. As a result, it remains a possibility, even if not a major one.


Why does North Korea make nuclear weapons?

North Korea is a country that cannot function purely on its own, in the sense that it cannot feed its population. However, its rulers wish to maintain the status quo in order to continue to be able to maintain their lifestyle. In order to do this (and feed their massive army) North Korea requires foreign aid, especially from countries like the USA and South Korea, which are both loathe to give it. As a result, using the threat of nuclear weaponry is a negotiating tactic that North Korea uses to get the aid it needs from its sworn enemies.


Why is North Korea trying to launch a nuclear weapon at the US?

North Korea does not actually intend to use a nuclear weapon against the United States, since there is nothing that North Korea would actually gain from using it. If North Korea launched a nuclear missile at the United States, it would immediately (1) lose the backing of China, which is the only reason that the United States refuses to invade North Korea, (2) start a hot war with the United States whose army could destroy the North Korean military, and (3) make North Korea a complete international pariah.North Korea trades on the threat that it will use a nuclear weapon against South Korea, Japan, and the United States in order to get desperately needed aid money and supplies from its enemies. It is nothing more than an extortion racket that North Korea employs as a method overcome the fact that the country makes no product worthy of export other than ginseng (which nobody wants).

Was angered when MacArthur demanded an unconditional surrender from North Korea from the North Korea war?

Harry Truman was angered when MacArthur demanded an unconditional surrender from North Korea during the Korean War. Harry Truman fired MacArthur after a congressman received a letter from MacArthur stating this idea. MacArthur knew that this would be a way to prolong the war in Korea.


Could Donald Trump actually liberate America from the threat of a nuclear attack by the DPRK or could his negotiating techniques actually cause Kim Jong-un actually fire a Nuclear Missile at America?

NEITHER. Since the North Korean government does not actually intend to fire a nuclear weapon (see below), Trump's ability to negotiate (or lack thereof) could not "liberate" the US from the threat of a nuclear attack and could not prompt a nuclear attack. It will have a null effect. As for whether Trump would be able to lead a rapprochement with North Korea, I would be extremely dubious that he has the tact or cunning to appropriately deal with the North Koreans, so I would not expect much on this front to change during his presidency. The only possibility that I could imagine is that Trump might entertain the idea of bilateral talks (instead of six-party talks) and this could change the peace process, but it is doubtful that his foreign policy aids would even make the recommendations to him about such a possibility.Why does the North Korean Regime Not Want to Use a Nuclear Weapon?North Korea does not actually intend to use a nuclear weapon against the United States, since there is nothing that North Korea would actually gain from using it.

Is it true that under Kim Jong-Il's rule North Korea developed nuclear arms and its economy prospered?

The North Korean nuclear program began under Kim Jong-Il when he took power in the 1990s; this caused international sanctions against him, which cut aid. This along with lack of Soviet support and economic mismanagement created a famine that starved thousands. The height of North Korea's economy began in the 1960s and came to a close after the death of Kim Il-Sung in 1994. During this time there were no sanctions against them, because there was not a nuclear program. Using the theory of associations, Kim Jong-Il's nuclear program crippled the economy.


What was the 1995 KEDO North Korea agreement on nuclear reactors?

Then (1995) Pres. Clinton & M. Albright created the KEDO which was a way of buying North Korea Nuclear power plants circumventing US Congress & Senate approval, using mostly US tax money. Even the NY Times thought that this was a wonderful idea. They trusted a country who main export are human organs to only use the reactor for electricity to allow International inspections, promise not to further enrich anything for military nuclear weaponry. Clinton later admitted this was a mistake but they meant well. Then during Bush Hillary had the nerve to say Bush didn't know how to handle a Nuclear North Korea when it was her husband who gave the crazy Dictator the reactors!
