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).

Is north Korea going to bomb south Korea?

I don't think so, not when the US is on South Korea's side with the largest amount of nukes in the world.


Why is it that Russia has so many nukes but if North Korea had a single nuke US would attack?

1) The US and Russia are for the most part no longer "enemies". 2) North Korea is very likely to use any possible nuclear technology against South Korea, which is a US ally; I don't think Russia wants to attack South Korea. 3) As I said earlier, Russia is not likely to attack the US, North Korea is.


What would happen if the US bombed North Korea's nuclear site?

North Korea would retaliate by sending artillery shells at Seoul, South Korea and within 2 hr. the largest city in South Korea will be leveled. North Korea would also deploy their troops across the DMZ and invade South Korea. In response to the artillery the US will be forced to bomb the artillery guns and defend South Korea's border. China will also step in and aid North Korea by cutting off trade to the US and readying their nukes to fire on South Korea, Japan or the US. The US would loss respect in the eyes of the world for this attack and this may cause Iran to attack US allies ultimately plunging us into WWIII.
