As are Cuba, Vietnam, Laos so can we assume the USA will attack them too?
Second, there's always been tension going on against the two countries.
Tension happens between many countries, look at the UK and Europe right now, does that mean the UK should fire nuclear missiles into the EU?
Third, my personal opinion is, Korea is always suspected as aggressively against the US and the West.
So has Japan against China, same with Russia and Eastern Europe countries, but in these situations, dialog is used, not threat of a nuclear armageddon.
Don't you think that perhaps this escalation is possibly down to the way Trump is handling the situation, making verbal threats, sending USA military into areas that he knows will cause provocation?
Trump stated quite clearly that he will concentrate on the USA and keep out of foreign affairs, it was one of his main voting ploys. If the was no US presence in Asia, do you really think KIM Yong would send nuclear weapons into the USA? If he attacks SK/Japan, they have the weaponry to shoot down any missiles, and that would then incur the wrath of the world, from China to the USA. KIM knows he could not fight the world.
Don't you, especially as an Asian, think Asia should work out their own problems, using their own culture and methods, without any interference from the west especially the USA?
I don't have any opinion ... it's impossible to really know anything.
All that we hear from the MSM is (obviously) biased
The same applies to everyone here ... all they can offer is the opinions of others that have been given to them, and mostly those are just contortions of the opinions of other from others from others ad infinitum !
“Would you be for a preemptive strike?” Today Show host Willie Geist asked the South Carolina Republican. "If that's what it would take,” Graham replied resolutely.
"It would be terrible but the war would be over here (there), wouldn't be here," Graham continued. "It would be bad for the Korean Peninsula. It would be bad for China. It would be bad for Japan, be bad for South Korea. It would be the end of North Korea. But what it would not do is hit America and the only way it could ever come to America is with a missile."

No, they don't need to be attacked for what their ideology us. But who's attacking who?
Isn't us NK blatantly disregard the UN''s protocol if not testing missiles let alone making them?

Sorry for the typos.
Anyways to continue on your opinion about me being Asian, has nothing to do of the US leaving them alone. Perhaps you should read what's the role of the major countries in peace keeping programs.

The Western media says he is a villain, a murderer, but can a prime minister/ president/ leader raise to power without getting rid of his oponents?
I don't if he is an unpredictable madman or whether he's just doing it for the effect.
