I believe every nation has the right to own enough nukes to destroy the United States so long as the United States owns a single nuke.

Nope.

This calls for an invasion

Doesn’t matter. If North Korea fires a nuke at us, our defense systems will stop it, then our retaliation will cause North Korea to cease to exist.

Defense systems exist for the specific purpose of stopping an ICBM in mid air.

yes

Not really, air defense systems are for intercepting and stopping any attack that comes by air

Did you just disagree with something you are basically repeating?

No
Never said so, isn’t it obvious

An ICBM wouldn’t even make it to Hawaii. They’d shoot it down and be at war within the hour.

Yes, but a portion of the air defense system is dedicated to intercepting missiles.

Via Wikipedia: (Important text in bold)
There are only two systems in the world that can intercept ICBMs. Besides them, many smaller systems exist (tactical ABMs), that generally cannot intercept intercontinental strategic missiles, even if within range—an incoming ICBM simply moves too fast for these systems.
The Russian A-35 anti-ballistic missile system for defense of Moscow was established in 1971, has been improved since, and is still active. Presently it is called A-135 and it uses two missile types, Gorgon and Gazelle. They are both armed with nuclear warheads.
The U.S. Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD; previously known as National Missile Defense – NMD) system has recently reached initial operational capability. Instead of using an explosive charge, it launches a kinetic projectile. The George W. Bush administration accelerated development and deployment of a system proposed in 1998 by the Clinton administration. The system is a dual purpose test and interception facility in Alaska, and in 2006 was operational with a few interceptor missiles. The Alaska site provides more protection against North Korean missiles or launches from Russia or China, but is likely less effective against missiles launched from the Middle East. President Bush referenced the 9/11 attacks and the proliferation of ballistic missiles as reasons for missile defense. The current GMD system has the more limited goal of shielding against a limited attack by a rogue state.

In the years between 1960-1985 enough nuclear weapons were created to destroy the world 20 times over and still have more.
Is that not enough? Originally posted by LukeMann:

Consider the fact that most of the nuclear armament is owned by Washington and Moscow, which represents thousands of active warheads each. Giving each country enough weaponry to get to their level would require a substantial amount of rare materials.

Moscow
Keep in mind, Russia is no longer Communist, but many Russians could easily revolt to turn it back, Russia may be weaker, but still own the largest navy (even if it consists of rusting ships in a harbor) and many Cold War systems
Also, they still hate the US.

Also have to remember that the US in #1 in missile defense, specializing in ICBM’s.

Meanwhile in Texas:
George Bush: “Korea has nukes? That wasn’t in our deal! Quick, send all the troops we can and begin Operation Jungle Thunder! Wepuns of Mess Destrcton!”

No, they don’t. The US has a larger navy than the next 12 largest navies COMBINED.
