You forgot oil. Because aside from Oil, North Korea is pretty much the same, but they don't have oil that the United States can redistribute amongst its allies at a slashed cost, and to itself at no cost at all, as soon as it sets up a puppet government in Iraq after any war that might happen with them.

That is the TRUE reason for the aggitation.
