How dangerous is North Korea to America?

North Korea claims that it could nuke the United States, but mostanalysts believethis is a lie. They believe that North Korean missiles could reach, at best, Hawaii. It's alsobelieved that they don't yet have nuclear devices small enough to mount on amissile, but they might in a few years.However, mostanalystsdo notbelieve North Korea actually wants to start a war with the U.S. or South Korea. It's thought that North Korea's real goal is to keep theircitizens united against a foreign enemy so that they won't overthrow the government.

Is the security and prosperity of the US inextricably linked to the security and prosperity of other nations?

No, but what happens in other nations can affect the security of the United States. Good example is North Korea because this is a nation that is developing a means to hit the United States and other countries with a nuclear weapon. No nation is alone in the world with a global economy and with the interconnections that are now part of modern life. Now, because of the internet a man sitting in a cave in the mountains can form a plan to overthrow a country. The days are gone when it took an army to change governments.
