    Robert Arvay, an author, thinks that war with North Korea is Inevitable. He compares North Korea today with World War II Japan and notes that both societies are brutal dictatorships.

    In my opinion, it doesn't help that China also is a brutal communist dictatorship behind closed doors. So China is questionable in this matter. China fought in the Korean war and saved North Korea from being reunited with South Korea, and technically the Korean War is still on as no peace treaty was ever signed. China probably wants all of Korea to be a Chinese province. It would be difficult for China to aid in the disarmament of North Korea, in my opinion, although Russia did disarm Cuba, which is as vicious as North Korea by any standard of measurement.

    At any rate, here is what Robert Arvay thinks will make war with North Korea inevitable:

    'It is the same with North Korea's leaders. They live lives of luxury at the expense of millions of their countrymen, vast numbers of whom have been starved to death by the Kim dynasty's policies. Kim Jong-un has one goal and one goal only: to preserve his power and perquisites, no matter the cost to anyone else.

    'Dictators must surround themselves with a ring of sociopathic murderers. Only such people can be trusted to subject mass populations to hunger, disease, and lives of hopelessness. Only such people can carry out the orders that imprison many thousands for the slightest hint of disloyalty and then torture them beyond description.

    'This inner circle will protect the "dear leader" so long as his ruthless rule benefits its members. Kim knows that. He knows that despite his best efforts to terrorize even those in his inner circle, they will turn against him the moment they perceive him to be too weak to preserve them in their positions.'

    Another American Thinker article today lists six ways that the war could start (often with China acting dumb).

    Of course, as alluded to - There may be a way out. Kim Jong-un goes the way of all flesh.

    China really doesn't want any part of North Korea. China sees North Korea as a tar baby. They want desperately to be rid of North Korea, but they really can't. If North Korea does go to war with us, it will most likely be without the backing of China.

    As for a war, itself, it might be a good way to solve the snowflake problem.

    I think we should reinstate the draft. As it is now the underclass fights the wars the upper class starts. A special provision should be that any member of the Congress who votes for war must either go himself of send a son or other younger relative. The first to go should be Trump Jr.

    No war needed. Just nuke them back into the stone age. Don't waste U.S. life on that crummy third world dictator.

    I don't think so. The "snowflakes" will stay at home and throw rocks at those that serve.

    Now, as far as the article, comparing the extremely expansionist preWWII imperial Japan with the Hermit Kingdom of the current North Korea...

    Well, it seems a bit ridiculous.

    He is saying that militaristic dictatorships have no way to provide for the welfare of their populations. I found myself wondering if the North Koreans learned their techniques from the Japanese who occupied Korea in the late 19th century until the end of World War II, but the orient has been a nightmare on its own. North Korea and Cuba are a lot alike. The Russians blinked and pulled nuclear weapons from Cuba when Castro expressed a desire to use them against New York City. The question is will China rein in its nuclear capability from North Korea?

    Yeah. Vietnam showed off our snowflakes at their finest. Having said that, I too would protest in the streets with them. I am 110% for frying them with Nukes. I am 110% against spilling 1 drop of U.S. blood in that rat hole.

    No, if there is any war with North Korea, it will be nuclear and they know they're outgunned. China would nip that in the bud.

    What's with the far left and their insistence that we reinstate the draft? They protested against the draft in the sixties, yet now they want it back? And women now have to register for the draft, Obama's kids are the perfect age . . .
