Harry J. Kazianis, National Interest: North Korea's 5 Nightmare Weapons the World Should Fear

Yes, we should be concerned about Pyongyang's nuclear weapons arsenal--but that isn't the only trick it has up its sleeve.

North Korea, for lack of a better term, is one hell of a hot mess. And its one that if South Korea and its ally the United States ever had to go to war with would create all sorts of problems.

From a leader who has more in common with the fictional Dr. Evil than any other normal head of state to rants about going to war against the United States and South Korea on an almost weekly basis to much more serious and deadly temper tantrums (like attacking a South Korean naval vessel and opening up its artillery to shell islands), one never knows what Pyongyang is capable of—just look how it treats it own people.

WNU Editor: A massive artillery barrage on the city of Seoul would be devastating .... but all the other weapons in its arsenal should not be discounted.
