“One ought never to turn one’s back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half.” Churchill
We continue to act as though this conflict is avoidable. We may prolong it, delay it, kick the can down the road but the issue in NK is the unfinished business of the 1950's still hovering over us, growing in danger from a potential conventional war to nuclear strike at a major city. We have plenty of Neville Chamberlains among us, very few Churchill's. That may come back to haunt us.

It has come back to haunt us. Imagine that Chamberlain sent arms to Hitler to appease him. That's what Clinton did by helping NK build nuclear power plants that could product isotopes for building weapons. Although President Trump is rude and crude, he has gotten results. China has not only joined in imposing sanctions, but also put NK on notice that if they shoot first, they're on their own. That is a major shift.

Better to be Nuc'd rather than give credit to President Trump. The Neville Chamberlain mistake has been status quo because DPRK didn't have missiles with nuclear warheads that could reach out and touch the USA and our allies.
