      <![CDATA[@4, Sure, preemptive war.  That's worked so well in the past why not try again?  <br />
<br />
To those proposing attacking NK, you might want to consider the fact that Seoul is right near the NK border.  Well within artillery range.  If we start bombing NK they can level Seoul in minutes. <br />
<br />
<a href="https://maps.google.com/maps?q=seoul+sk&ll=37.816293,126.872864&spn=1.238898,1.678162&hnear=Seoul,+South+Korea&gl=us&t=m&z=9" rel="nofollow">https://maps.google.com/maps?q=seoul+sk&&hellip;</a><br />
<br />
Before making preemptive decisions about what to do in someone else's country consider how you would feel if we were talking about a country within artillery range of Washington DC, or Seattle.

Can you win an arms race with yourself?<br />

Is that what the future has in store -- perpetual escalation of destructive capacity?  What would "victory" look like in that scenario?

      <![CDATA[Shrug?!  They're right next door to South Korea!  Japan is a short ways across the water!  Kim Jung-un may be deluded enough to use it and risk nuclear world war.  After all, what can we do?  What can we even do now?<br />

<br />
