Let’s see.

A. Belligerent nation - check
B. Nuclear capable nation - check
C. Missile capable nation - check
D. Nation opposing 1953 Armistice - check
E. Nation threatening maritime shipping - check

Conclusion: preemptive strike.

That would be fine and dandy - if the Norks didn’t have something like 10k conventional medium- and short-range missiles pointed at every elementary school and bowling alley in South Korea, primed, prepped and ready to launch in a matter of minutes. With or without command and control from Pyongyang. All along and behind the border.

This has been the case for years and years.

So - preemptive strike = our allies flattened.

If you can find an easy way out of this bind, please call the Pentagon right now. They’ve been waiting for it longer than the Dear Leader has been in power.

Regardless of who’s president.
