You ignored the sentence just preceding the one you quoted.

Since WWII, what is the history of invasion by countries now apart of NATO without UN approval?

We have the US in Iraq, 2003. What else?

This is also ignoring the nuke factor. If NK can't be taken over b/c they have nukes, then it's even more irrational to be worried. I mean hell, Russia is committing illegal invasions right now and the world is neutered b/c of one reason: nukes.

Russia's recent insanity has both proven (1) why Eastern Europe needs NATO and (2) how they have no rational justification whatsoever. It's an amazing self-fulfilling prophecy.

Would a sane person consider nuclear bombers a defensive weapon? Yet there they are, airborne within eyesight of Russia during a NATO military exercise.

Yes Iraq, Yougoslavia, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Lybia, Syria, Yemen nearly every South American country has a covert op to destabilize and try and install US puppets. (Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, chili, Cuba, Venezuela the same as we did in Croatia, Georgia and most recently Ukraine)
