For one thing, “nation building” in North Korea should exclusively a South Korean activity. They have a huge economy and a huge military. They should shoulder this 100%.
The US can swoop in and break a bunch of stuff to force NK to surrender (I think they will fold like a cheap suit). But after NK collapses, we should come home.
There will be deaths. But, as others have said, we’re looking at potentially 100 million dead if we wait. So let’s not wait. Any number smaller than 100 million is preferable.
I would agree with you if you were posting this from Seoul and couldn't leave there for ten years.
After the last 25 years of U.S. military campaigns that have turned out to be utter failures, I would have thought these corporate globalists and armchair generals like John Bolton would have zero credibility here on FreeRepublic anymore.
