Like instead of going to war why not cut ties and let them suffocate with zero trade and I'm sure if every allied nations stops trade with them they'd become a desert wasteland then we somehow redistribute the land to allied countries. Everyone's afraid of n Korea so why not just destroy them economically?

North Korea has economic sanctions against them. Thats why they are pursuing nuclear weapons and H-bombs. They presume thats the only thing that will get the attention of the U.S. You want people to suffer? North korea is a wasteland because they are completely shut off. I dont think that is the way to change their government. I think if they got some benefits from trade with the west, that would go further to changing things than starving the people. What you are suggesting is the situation already and it is inhumane in my opinion.

A lot of countries do boycott but in cases like N. Korea you have China's big money still supporting them...

It's a delicate balance between holding the governments accountable but being mindful of the people's suffering.



Do you not recall how sanctions against Iraq were blamed for "starving millions of innocent children" and feeding the ranks of angry terrorist groups?

The entice world already refuses tobyrade with North Korea. None of us do.

But then they keep testing nuclear weapons and threatening to use them.

The leaders and the people chant "Death to America" on a daily basis.

Our President decided to grant them the right to pursue Nuclear Weapons.

In addition, he is releasing 100 BILLION DOLLARS in Funds to return to Iran.

Meanwhile,

Iran fires missiles past our ships in the Straight of Hormuz!
