The Threat of Axis Powers

Various regimes actively pursue weapons of mass destruction, representing a significant global threat. North Korea continues its missile and weapon development while its citizens face severe starvation. Iran aggressively seeks these weapons and engages in terror exportation, while the Iraqi regime has plotted to create biological and nuclear weapons for over a decade. The United States under President Bush identified these nations as part of an 'Axis of Evil', drawing parallels to historical totalitarian regimes to highlight the dangers they pose to world peace.
