Yep, we're going to war with North Korea. It is among the safest ways to boost his legacy early on, who would stick up for the North Korean anyway.

Well the obvious answer is China. I sincerely hope he doesn't start his "legacy" by starting WW3. I mean Obama was bad, but not this.

I blame the current situation on H.W bush. And Bill Clinton. China was weaker back then! and of course there were people pulling the china card back then as well as an excuse to do nothing, and its only getting worse.

The 'China card' you mean not starting WW3? As much as I don't like North Korea, as long as they're not attacking anyone they're good. It's frightening how so many people have a bloodlust when it comes to China/North Korea. These are the same people who are hysterically warning about war with Russia when there's zero chance Trump would do that.

The whole reason North Korea exists is as a strategic buffer for them. They would definitely send in troops. Anyway, North Korea on its own could destroy Seoul, a city of tens of millions of people. This would easily be the biggest loss of life since WWII, 10x the size of Iraq.

You mean like bombing Serbia would start WW3? exactly, no because Russia, despite its nukes was simply not in a practical position to resist at the time. Even now when Russia has somewhat recovered, when Ukraine underwent a color revolution Putin did not send tanks into Kiev.

And Ukraine is far more important to Russia as a buffer, than North Korea is to China.


Ukaine had a peaceful revolution... it wasn't invaded by the U.S. while under Yanukovych rule. There weren't US planes bombing the Donbass. Also, Ukraine wasn't a nuclear power. Besides, the other stuff I've already said should rule out attacking North Korea.

Why didn't Russia invade if buffer states are so important? come on just give it up.

Because Ukraine wasn't being used to host U.S. armies like South Korea is. Besides, it did invade.

A half assed "invasion" supplying volunteers . Had Putin been serious it would have looked like Hungary in 1956.

But anyway the US military presence is just an excuse. The status of a unified Korea can easily be negotiated behind their back.

Sure, if it was negotiated before a war starts. Not if the war starts before a deal is worked out. But even then, you have the problem of how do you disable North Korea's nukes and artillery before it uses them.

This is where is lay the blame on the previous presidents for not acting in the 1990's, while the United States enjoyed hegemony, and North Korea was not nuclear. As for the artillery, Yes that is problematic, but unless you have a peaceful coup some sort of bloodbath is inevitable anyway. Better for future generation not to have to deal with it.

It's not inevitable. There could be a coup, or Kim Jong Un could die, or they could be brought back to the table by negotiations. Again, a war would result in the deaths of thousands, maybe millions. And if instigated by the U.S. when the status quo is peace, it would be tantamount to mass murder. Not to mention thousands of American troops would die and the global recession to follow. Finally, China would not likely agree to such a plan. I oppose this.
