So if they decided to nuke the crap out of the North without any further discussion, that would be fine, right?

Oh come on now. South Korea nuke the livin dog poop out of the North Koreans.

No seriously, I didn't know which belligerents you were talking about, SK or China.

I think China may if anything because they derive less out of NK than they do SK. If SK did it, that's fine with me.

I say pull our troops out and let the UN fill the gap.

We never declared war on North Korea, and never directly negotiated a cease fire with them as the United States. This was a military action by the UN not the United States which should have not taken place to begin with and seems that if it is a real war, congress should have declared it as such.

Why is the security counsel not meeting on this? Oh yeah, that's right! It is a worthless organization.

Pull our troops out NOW!

So where do you draw the line? Is it okay for Israel to nuke the snot out of Iran?

Why bring Israel in to this?

What would be the difference? It would be one country killing people who they deem a threat.

Yep, Israel has more of a right to use any weapon they can to defend themselves than does SK. They have been directly told by Iran and other countries that they are a direct target with the intent to destroy them. Iran talks but their actions have been limited to terrorist attacks of Israel and they are limited because they know that if something drastic like an invasion by iran would to take place, Israel would not consult the UN but launch everything they got.

SK was never a real target since the new small leader took control, our troops are, our presence puts us in a problematic situation that can't be defended on many levels - including the question "who is the UN to tell us what to do?"
