Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea?

Ask direct questions, receive direct answers. No I don’t support it. I think none of the war should’ve happened.

In that case I return to my original statement. “Damn, maybe we should stop doing them then.” I don’t have any control over what North Korea does or did, but I do, at least theoretically, have influence as a voter and a citizen over what the US does, so I’m going to focus on the things within my ability to influence. And your response that “North Korea started the war” seems largely irrelevant.

I don’t have any control over either action so I’m just sad that North Korea started the whole thing, especially in hindsight when we know it achieved nothing but caused so much bad.

Well, your country is part of the UN and as you’ve emphasized it was a UN intervention so I’d say it’s pretty clear which side of the war you have a greater ability to influence and therefore a greater responsibility to critique.
