"In afghanastan we actually used TROOPS"

We will use troops for North Korea if we are attacked by them.
We already have troops stationed right next to that country in South Korea. They are going to get involved one way or the other,if for no reason other than North Korea would hardly launch a missile attack on America without taking on our troops just a few feet from them as well.

If N. Korea tries to nuke us, NUKE THEM BACK!!!! "

Oh rubbish.

# 1.We HAVE used nuclear weapons before, when it had been absolutely necessary. In fact we are the only country to have ever used 'em in war. And that was in Japan in 1945.

# 2. North Korea's missiles that they have been firing do NOT have nuclear warheads.
We know because some of their past missiles have landed in the Sea of Japan.

# 3.I made no reference to nuclear attacks from North Korera in my post. It was all about a conventional attack.
Which we can get from North Korea either through a missile or an attack on our troops if they attack South Korea.

"Geesh, what are we afraid of??? The international reaction? Screw them!"

The fact that plenty of countries have nuclear weapons today, unlike in 1945?
And first use of nuclear weapons anytime we are attacked by some wackjob is merely going to leave us open open to the same nuclear retaliation?
It used to be called MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction)
