i see no reason to celebrate this.
if we invest more into education, the world wont be in chaos.
why build for war when we claim to want peace, none of this in any nation will bring peace but war.
i hope to see a world where we wont have a reason for guns

From the realist point of view, you are wrong....The only way war can be averted is when there is Balance of power or (from the liberalist point of view) an Hergemon......The USA is serving in both capacity.

Wow!!!
This is art.

Funny you So you expect America to be fighting a country with less than 26 Million people? America will wipe NK out of surface of earth under a week but they won't because of her innocent citizens.

There you go again，NK can't and won't fight America. All the allies of America with american investment will be destroyed and when fighting a superior enemy, just aim at his weak points

I'm sorry sir but comparing the small country with USA is a big insult

i see all this big nations as predators preying on smaller nations, they wont fight the war on their soil, eg, let's USA and Russia, none of the two nations would invade the other, yet they are seeking for blood, on whose soil? on smaller nations.
i dont know why, i hate anything fight in any form, its been long i fought someone, and God knows I'm not ready to do such irrespective of the provocation.
