I oppose all nuclear proliferation, this is the principled stand. Be it NK or Israel. NK so far has a couple of them if any, but Israel has hundred time more of them, so every principle broke down when it tests Israel. I just can't find rational here. If you break a principle, you shouldn't expect other won't do same thing. This is the source of the world chaos.
So your principle is "no principle" but self interest, let me go along with your logic; as I recalled that Israel actually killed lot of US citizens in last 60 years so while NK killed almost none US citizen after 1953 Armistice treaty, so Israel is the threat to US citizen's life, not NK. Is threat to its citizen a threat to US itself?

Well since NK is bordered by only two contries, its a little hard for them to invade anyone. Now since Israel is bordered by four, of which all four has had attacks eminating from within them, how do you get that Israel has invaded eight countries since the definition of it is to aggressively attack another country in order to conquer it and take it over? Please don't just list countries. List them and the exact circumstances related to them.

Four are obvious, of course, but Tunisia (1988), Uganda (1976), Argentina (1960) and Iraq (1981) have also all had their territories invaded by Israeli forces, and those were just those I could name off the top of my head.

So Israelis saving hijacked airline hostages in Uganda you call an invasion? I also wouldn't call the Adolf Eichmann capture in Argentina an Israeli invasion. I think you are stretching the meaning of what most people would consider an invasion of one country into another.
North Korea is a threat to the USA and the world whereas Israel is not.
Which of those two countries has attacked several other countries in the last couple decades and which country is currently illegally occupying territory and building settlements in an attempt to steal even more land?

Stretching it or not, I doubt North Korea has racked up 8 of those.
