Yes, DS, I would do whatever I thought I had to do.
I'm not sure, though, what exactly that would involve.
It would depend on how seriously I perceived the threat to be, I guess.
But you still haven't told me what
you would do in this case.
I guess I'm waiting for you to tell me that you'd invade North Korea, or use some type of pre-emptive nuclear strije against them.
Here's another question I have:
Why does everyone assume that North Korea is stockpiling missles in order to have an
offensive capability against us?
The way I see it, they'd be nuts - not to say that they
aren't nuts - to attack us first.
Sure, they might inflict some serious damage, but I think that in retaliation we'd pretty much wipe thm off the face of the earth, wouldn't we?
Isn't it possible, if not likely, that North Korea considers
us to be a threat to
them, and they're increasing their nuclear capabilities as a deterrent against a United States attack (they've seen us attack other countries - Afghanistan and Iraq; - no matter from their POV if we had good reason to or not) and as a purely defensive move?
