        Can you justify possible loss of life in South Korea upwards to 20 million so Trump the Boss Baby of the north can have a pissing contest

        We need to crack more books before jumping to conclusions. After the K.War, we left the N.K. people devastated which lead to the sick regime

        No. It would not be self defense. You dont break into a guys house & kick his ass because you heard he might be a burglar...

        Bad analogy. What about shooting someone first who has a gun pointed at you and who has already said they will kill You?

        Didn't we already try to justify attacking Iraq in self defense? Seems a stretch for "the most powerful nation in the world" to do twice.

        We have been illegally bombing seven countries for the better part of the last decade, what's one more? Completely disgusting.

        NK determines its own fate here. If they cont to threaten our borders then they drastically reduce the options available. 1/2
