Probably not.

I don't see us going to war with N.K. However, I fully expect that after Saddam is dealt with, there will be some action to try and reduce the potential threat from other places -- NK, Iran, etc. I think there is a little more utility in trying to use diplomatic approaches with these other nations. With Iraq, diplomacy doesn't help at all.

I think Bush has carefully chosen the ordering of the terrorism initiative so that we don't alienate nations that can be helpful before it is necessary. The Saudis, and Iran, are useful to us right now (for that matter, so is Syria). Iraq, in its current state, is of no value to us whatsoever, and I believe that is why they are the first to be targeted.
