North Korea's communist regime has warned of a nuclear war on the Korean peninsula while vowing to step up its atomic bomb-making programme in defiance of new UN sanctions.

North Korea's foreign ministry threatened war on any country that dared to stop its ships on the high seas under the new sanctions approved by the UN Security Council on Friday as punishment for the North's latest nuclear test.

Threats are fine and all, but the minute North Korea launches something containing nuclear material, the rest of the world will eradicate it. Kim should know that his country can only threaten others if there's actually a chance of winning for him. Having a few nukes doesn't classify a nation as important.
