because its too late - time to do that was half century ago.

they are the example for not allowing Iran to succeed = the are a real menace to world peace - and if not peace at least a livable standoff = like we have with NK.

Also, they are not bothering us. They are not impeding the flow of oil or anything else, and they are not attacking Americans.

We did in 1950-1953. Left 50,000 - 60,000 dead US soldiers and didn’t finish the job. We had Truman and he was scared. McArthur wanted to bomb China. Use the atomic bomb if necessary.

The North Korean government is also more bat shite crazy and wouldn’t hesitate to immediately launch nukes.


Kim Jong Un wants to stay alive and is not a religious zealot. He is a saber rattler. The Iranians are religious zealots and sponsor terror and killings based on their Islamic interpretations. IMO, nuclear weapons in their hands would be far more concerning. Even though the Persians aren't really low IQ arabs, they control many radical arab groups who would willingly set off a nuke if instructed.

Trump already met with Kim and North Korea really hasn't been a global nuisance since then. Still a colossal piece of shite regime.

What's your point?

Are you thinking Trump 2.0 needs to let Lil Rocket Man know he may be getting some attention too?

I think Kim Jung Un has some respect for a man like Trump because Trump is always willing to listen to another person's perspective while also being ready to confront any situation that he deems a potential threat to the US, whereas the Islamic Regime in Iran doesn't give two shits about what the US/West thinks or says.

And because despite Trump not winning the 2020 election, Kim knew that he’d be dealing with Trump again as President, eventually. Pretty astute prediction and anticipation on his part.

Last I checked, NK wasn’t run by a bunch of moslem cocksuckers trying to impose their inbred death cult on the world.

Not to mention that Iran is full of religious zealots that are ready to meet their maker. I think they’d use it unprovoked the minute the got access

Neither is Iran. Sure they're attacking interests and bases in retaliation. They weren't randomly lobbing missiles out direction prior to us attacking. They're a crazy regime with terrible human rights records. But they have only really attacked us in retaliation strikes. They have a right to defend their nation even if we don't like it.

Because they don’t disrupt commerce or fund huge terrorist ops around the world.

And by world you mainly mean region. But yes it does creep beyond that region at times so your observation can't be dismissed.

I assume that you’ve heard of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani, Ret. Were you not aware of the reason and justification for the unprecedented termination of that person by the U.S. military? Just as one particular example, but a pretty significant one.
