For an old army guy, you sure are scared of a pipsqueak.

Use that keen sense of logic to clean out your Y2K bunker and stock up on fresh peanut butter.

You can tell the neo-cons are almost salivating at the thought of a nuclear war, fantasizing about thousands upon thousands of dead Koreans.

Again with cutting through all the crap and getting right to the heart of the matter. You gotta stop that! You're ruining the fun for these X-Box whannabe's.

No one's remembering the recent debacle with a diplomat/embassador TELLING the administration they were in mortal danger and them still being left out in the cold to be easily killed WITHOUT so much as a "DANG" from this adminsitration. They've spent more time controlling the press over that one than making sure it doesn't happen again.

People really need to think about the committment to the nations welfare when a holiday in Hawaii assumes greater priority than that of the security of diplomatic staff.

You're in complete denial there bud. We pushed them north nearly to the Yalu River only to have that all go away when they turned around and ran us all the way back to the 38th again.

Korean War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Firstly you weren't alone over there, secondly the green U.S. replacements and South Koreans were in full retreat and storming south of the 38th after suffering "terrible losses" with episodes like over 60 odd of your new arrivals being killed in their sleeping bags without even posting a night watch.

Battles like this one using battle tested WWII troops who were tremendously outnumbered by the Chicoms saved the day:

Battle of Kapyong - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Read that entire link and pay special attention to the part where while one American Lieutenant in charge of five shermans stuck around throughout a bitter battle he still had to withdraw eventually when the New Zealanders and Autralians he was supporting became surrounded whereupon one entire U.S. morter company simply fled the area leaving all of their weapons and vehicles behind. Yeah, you really showed 'em alrighty.

You destroyed no one. The U.N. fought them to a draw and suffered terribly doing so.

All sides agreed to the armistice because they were fugging tired!

Explore and research some history instead of parroting crap you've heard all your life.

Why?
It's none of our business.

Here is a sentence with 3 sets of 2 words that sounds nice also.

Wouldn't North Korea, (2 words),make a nice Parking Lot, (2 words), for South Korea, (2 words)
You freak'n people make me laugh. If it were only that simple how come you didn't do it in 50 or 51?

"Mutually Assured Destruction". Does that ring a bell for ya Seymor?

You drop a nuke in China's back yard what you think they're gonna do; buy more Buicks?

Russia supported North Korea throughout the 50's conflict with weapons and China provided the grunts on the ground. The same players are still at the table in some form or another.

Consider those nations you've been pissing off for the last 15 years or so who have been reluctant spectators while you made a hash of the middle east. Pakistan perhaps take a harrassing bite out of your azz while you're eyeballing Korea. Iran gonna sit quietly watching. Even the damn Saudi's might saddle their camels and pitch a fork at your pie.

You needd this chit like you need another frigg'n economic melt-down! YOU CANNOT FUGGING AFFORD a shooting war. PERIOD!

LOL, what a typical comment from the regressive radical right. I don't think many in the US on either the left or right regard Kim very well. It's just that the right wingers seem to be fantasizing over a nuclear war right now.
