WASHINGTON (AFP) — Global leaders quickly directed their anger at North Korea on Monday for carrying out a nuclear bomb test that US President Barack Obama called a threat to world peace.If Obama is really concerned about this, something that might be within even closer range to the American continent than even Iran's own nukes, why then is he cutting back on missile defense systems?

While South Korea put its military on alert, the UN Security Council called an emergency meeting to discuss the North Korean explosion -- a much bigger follow-up to its first nuclear test in 2006 -- and reports that it also tested a short-range missile.
"These actions, while not a surprise given its statements and actions to date, are a matter of grave concern to all nations," Obama said in a statement.
"North Korea's attempts to develop nuclear weapons, as well as its ballistic missile programme, constitute a threat to international peace and security."
"The danger posed by North Korea's threatening activities warrants action by the international community," said the US president, whose military chief of staff, Admiral Mike Mullen, said the North was becoming "increasingly belligerent".
