U.S. Within Reach

By: Blayne Sim

According to a report, North Korea may be ready to test a missile believed to have the capability of reaching Alaska. This is just another step in the wrong direction for North Korea and international nuclear policy. It seems that for some reason, North Korea is hung up on making the world notice their nuclear capabilities. If they were to ever attempt an attack, they would be defeated very quickly by other countries. But they still pose a threat for the rest of the world. By having missiles capable of reaching U.S. soil, it makes them a direct player in the whole situation. Hopefully, this type of situation can be resolved democratically and doesn't lead to a more violent situation.
