Taking on Iran is basically up to Israel. As for N. Korea, S. Korea and Japan would have to take care of it. China loves status quo in N. Korea.

I know where you are comming from, but unless China, Europe and others back up Isreals, SK, and Japans play, that is a recipie for WW3. China is the major player when it comes to Kim - and at this time, this late in the game, they need to seriously consider if doing nothing will hurt them in the long run.

The Middle East question is far more complex, but the same laws apply, if Isreal is forced to stand alone, I see nothing but bad happening.

I’m trying to be a ‘glass is half full’ kinda guy, because the alternative is WW3. I’m hopefull that world leaders will put pressure on rogue sates.
