Allen. ...."When you responded to a post where I was making arguments against pre-emptive wars, asking me "So should the USA and the free world let a fanatic islam controlled country get nukes?", it seemed to me that you were defending the pre-emptive war concept. If you weren't, fine, but I think you can see how I might have thought so."..... Allen. I thought I would ask the question here on this thread where 99.9% posters are apposed to anything I may say or ask to get opinions.... so yes I was asking a question and not defending the concept of pre-emptive strikes against another country. So if all else fails...what then. Should the USA and the rest of the free world say ...ah what the heck we tried let them have their nukes or other WMD? All of us can see and hear what radical islam does and says about countries of the free world and like I have said...these people are unlike anything the USA has ever faced before. ...."It's North Korea that has recently threatened to strike us first. Their Foreign Minister pointed out that the U.S. is not the only country that is allowed to use the pre-emptive defense doctrine."...... Allen, I believe there has always been a pre-emptive strike option open to any country who may not like the life style of another country.....example... Japan and Pearl Habour... radical islam and 9/11 etc. So if North Korea's nuke facilities had been taken out by a pre-emptive strike they would not now be saying they also have nuke pre-emptive strike capabilities would they? So my point was in making this statement...."This attempt at a diplomatic solution failed and IMO North Korea is much less a danger than radical islam with nukes"..... Would a pre-emptive strike on North Korea's nuke facilities have been the better option instead of deals, aid or sanctions where in this case the USA trusted and took the word of North Korea leaders?? Would a pre-emptive strike maybe save millions of lives in the future?? I don't know but should North Korea be seen as a lesson learned?
