2. appeasement never works

north korea is led by a few people whose sole goal is to retain power at all coast. these people have already slaughtered millions of their own people. people so violent and lacking in all conscience are unpredictable and capable of extremely violent and irrational acts. the us must make it clear that any attack on south korea or other us interests would lead to very strong retaliation. the other matter is north korea's nuclear weapons. the leadership would not be so belligerent without possessing nuclear weapons. past and present us appeasement of north korea has only emboldened the leadership. eventually, the us and its remaining allies will have to bite the bullet and solve the north Korean issue once and for all. china cannot be relied on as a partner in this endeavor. china might cooperate in the very short term, but in the long term, china is an adversary.

Right now tensions are high between the US and North Korea so why inflame the situation by test launching a missile as there is no rush to hold the test. It sends a message to North Korea we don't want to fight you here so lets calm things down. I think eventually NK will test launch their new missile but it will not carry a nuke and it will not be fired at the US that will allow them to put on a show of strength and allow them to day the Americans are scared of us and then they will start diplomacy. A war with NK will spill over into South Korea which will be disastrous for the global economy, the US forces are already overstretched and it will make problems with China non of which the world needs right now.
