They (Iran and N. Korea) are both nuts!! The religious fever in Iran make them more scarry to me, though neither are rational. Kinda a rock and a hard place, do we nuke them because they are developing nukes? Best case is to build strong (very strong) consensus among our allies and other rational countries to enforce severe sanctions and if they become agressive have a "severe" response from our allies and the rational world. Not just token representaion but a truely unified effort. Then nuke em.
