I would rate Somalia above North Korea right now. Ethiopia is judging Somalia as such a threat their PM said they would invade...so we can expect to see Ethiopian troops taking unilateral action against Somalia.
North Korea has nuclear weapons (suspected) and could launch a missiles capable of hitting the US however NK is a country and would not likely risk entangling the US or regional powers (China, SK, Japan)
Somalia on the other hand in now the next Afghanistan (prior 2001), it seems like someone is willing to take action to stop the spread of Extremists and Islamic terrorism.
As long as the NK threat is alive, people will pump more money into the Anti-Ballistic Shield program (Justified by NK of course) which in my opinion should of been started in the 1990's.
Simple Politics.
The most viable and immediate threat which would cause a mass casualty attack is terrorism, not war. Let NK do what they want to do for right now.
