As long as this nation and its psychotic leader, remain a "conditioned" stalking horse for an expansionist china!?

This nightmare can only deepen into a horror story with a potential to wipe out two thirds of humanity. i.e., most of the northern hemisphere?

There's no place to hide from a nuclear holocaust, nor the nuclear winter that would follow for the best part of a decade?

Those that play with fire, eventually get burnt!

I heard that Trumps going to pre-emptively strike in about 12 weeks...

AC. Hope you have Trump's word on that? And the absolute comfort of knowing his word is his bond! And something you can take to the bank (bankruptcy)!? Six times!?

Demilitarized Zone! Has to be first target of any successful preemptive strike!

All those pack howitzers need to become junk metal in the first five minutes of any operation; and the border between China and North Korea has to be patrolled by aerial control/superiority, in order to prevent the CPA from interfering they way they did last time.

Could be curtailed by combination of cluster bombs and SAM's? Smart bombs able to remove howitzers, material and some mines?

Cluster bombs/mines along the China/North Korean border? Assist preventing the free range of any intended CPA interference?

Rail guns, (some of them nuclear capable) drones and radar, preventing their field pieces being deployed for a similar purpose?

Many suggest a war with a sabre rattling communist china is inevitable?

Therefore, ought to be conducted on a field of our choice (their ground) at a time of our choosing and while we still outweigh their military might quite massively.

Better we spend some of that military might now to prevent a far worse conflict and casualties, in the not too far distant future?

The SAM's able to make the price of any aerial retaliatory strike by the CPA prohibitively expensive. As would a few dozen battlefield tactical weapons on their "interfering" ground forces.

Albeit, trade deals would likely be set back for a thousand years! As would Chinese imperial ambitions!

As was the case in WW11, appeasement eventually had to give way to armed conflict that no one in the west ever wanted! But had to be persecuted, to shutdown a madman's ambitions.

Our huge and terrible losses, would have been vastly lessened! If we'd acted both decisively and far, far sooner! Say with the annexing of Austria?

CPA interference with imposed reunification, all the excuse we'd ever need?

This plan or some version of it needs to be on the table in the event a last effort at negotiating with a nuclear armed madman fails to produce a peaceful result/reunification of the Korean Peninsula?

Secret pact with Russia would assist!
