why invade a country like Iraq which has NO NUKE program while leaving North Korea to finish its business?

The cost of invading Iraq, in money and lives, was judged to be acceptable; the cost of invading N. Korea was judged otherwise. It's ridiculous to blame Clinton, or anyone else, for not stopping the North Koreans. The means to stop them existed, but the price was, and is, higher than anything Americans are willing to pay.

One answer to your question is that NK has nukes and a border with China, which also has nukes. Also, I'm of the opinion Iraq would have an active nuclear program as soon as sanctions eroded away.

So what do want us to do about NK?
