As the US sends B-52 nuclear bombers to South Korea, North Korea must decide whether or not it wants to go to war. Because of North Korea's close ties with Iran, supplying missile and nuclear technology, conflict there could light a short fuse to the Middle East.

When Iran tested its new ballistic missile system, it did so with the help of a buddy state: North Korea. Apparently, the Islamic theocracy and secular despotic state have joined forces to build missiles that can carry nuclear warheads.
