The only defensible war is a war of defense.
To find out who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.

I can criticize anyone I want.

Apparently, you do not know the difference between criticism and hate speech. Sucks to be you.
Free speech is meaningless unless it tolerates the speech that we hate.
Sec. Mattis did not make a threat, he made a promise!

WASHINGTON, Sept 3 (Reuters) - U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis on Sunday threatened a "massive military response" to any attack on the United States or its allies after North Korea conducted its most powerful nuclear test to date.
Speaking outside the White House, Mattis said: "Any threat to the United States or its territories, including Guam or our allies will be met with a massive military response, a response both effective and overwhelming." Mattis said Washington was not looking for the "total annihilation of a country, namely North Korea. But as I said, we have many options to do so."
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-41140621For all the historians on OPP... do you recall WWII and how hard it was to liberate South Korea? Are we in for another war, or will North Korea cave knowing the capabilities of the modern military? Many questions surround this... to include, should we have two fronts going, as we did in WWII, at one time? Could Kim Jong-un be banking on a "divide and conquer" tactic?

Un is banking on China.......just like we are. What a wonderful position for China to be in yes? China has made it clear that they will not tolerate a unified Korea, just as they did during the first Korean war.
Why is that it is only the US and her allies in the Pacific that Un is threatening? Why is it that the rest of the world is willing to let these two "duke it out"? I wonder what Un's response would be, if China said "cease and desist or WE will invade and reclaim N. Korea as our own"? Then, one has to wonder why China seems reluctant to use that threat to back up their public denouncement of N. Korea's aggression.
If Trump could keep it off Twitter or out of a news conference, telling China that we would consider an attack by N. Korea to be an attack by China, and respond in kind............we might see China take a more realistic approach to N. Korea and corral the little f&cker, or eliminate him.
Last question; if China told our Pacific allies that allying with them instead could keep them safe from N. Korea, I wonder what they'd do?
War is delightful to those who have not experienced it.

Sound questions. I am not trying to be rude or insulting when I say such "sound questions" are madness to me on this issue. I do not get it. It is like asking, "Should I barbecue the chicken or my children?" Reasonable and logical debate about massive death and destruction is Loony Tunes. The war to end all wars should have. Then we had something even worse by five. And now we talk almost non-nonchalantly about war, as if it is ever an answer or option. Crazy! What sort of mind can entertain such absurdity?
I am not saying you, Pennylynn. You simply presented a few scenarios. We seem to take to talks about war like it is a video game. The ludicrous nature of contemplating war is a mental illness.

I agree, why not kill the head of the snake and possible usurpers, and free those people.

Here's your enemy for this week, the government says. And some gullible Americans click their heels and salute – often without knowing who or even where the enemy of the week is.

It's clear as is your comment " you were born" unless you were speaking as the offender?
