that the US and North Korea are drifting towards war

What war? A couple of our bombers ought to be able to take out their reactors and plants, rather like the Israeli's did to Iraq in the 80's. A surgical strike is all that is required. Why didn't they do it long ago?

Agreed. But I wouldn't do it stealthy-like. We should tell them exactly what we will do and that it will happen immediately after the very next idiotic threat from those miserable peons.

Sneak attacks lack honor. They couldn't stop it no matter how much advance notice is given. And what a good lesson for other potential pissants.

In an insane world, we should come off just a little more crazy than them regarding our security.

Perhaps "war" is the wrong term if you're just thinking about NK vs. US. But do you sacrifice Seoul? Japan? NK has literally thousands of missiles that can hit Seoul, do you not think they'll be launched if any missile (ours or somebody else's) hits the reactor? Do you call that bluff?

NK and its 1 million man army will declare war on on US, SK (and probably Japan just for kicks) if we do that. They might not be able to touch us, but that doesn't mean it won't be ugly. That's why I think that if we're prepared to hit the reactor, we'd better also be prepared to take out everything else.
