A poll finds half of Americans consider North Korea a direct threat to the security of their country.

According to a survey conducted by Gallup on June 15th and 16th, respondents said North Korea poses a bigger threat to the U.S. than Iran, Iraq or Russia.

More than 50 percent said Pyongyang is “a direct threat” and 34 percent “a serious threat.”

A survey conducted by another pollster, Rasmussen, found last week that 38 percent of Americans consider North Korea the biggest threat to the U.S.
