Nobody in their right mind would want a nuclear war anywhere, including on the Korean peninsula. We’ve already got a war going on there between the North and South for over 60 years. The only veil of peace has been a cease-fire that has more or less held for all but the first few years of the war. There is no peace treaty. The nations are technically still at war.
The world over have turned a blind eye, or simply chose to ignore sparking the political powder keg that resides in the North, but Trump and his Secretary of State Rex Tillerson are now in the game and seem willing to fight fire with fire.
The unstable and bellicose leader of North Korea makes no effort to hide his nation’s quest for nuclear weapons. Especially ones he can deliver anywhere in the world.
This has the potential to develop into an incredibly nasty situation.
Unfortunately, things are heating up as discussed on page two.
They sure do
All five minutes of it that is.
A flash in the pan? Why aren’t we pushing for this? Unite Korea under democracy and capitalism and make Korea great again!
His replacement is a united Korea with the south in command. Win win for everyone (except tyrants)
Poof is what it would look like. Nuke em to glass.
Michael Roberts Not that simple. I played war games there and in the games we simulated using tactical nukes because we certainly didn’t have enough troops to stop them if they crossed in force. Problem is, and we practiced this, the prevailing winds brought the fallout back to us. So they have to be used judiciously. I’m not saying we don’t have options, it just isn’t as simple as some folks think.
A bunch of malnurished zipper heads with Chinese weapons, ,what’s the point?
Wars are costly.
So is freedom.
Yes, wars are costly.
Fast & Furious comes to mind.
