Should we declare War on North Korea?

For years, they had used bluffs, and "tests" in an insane proposal to get aid(They could just simply join the International Community like a rational State but, they're clearly not rational) Its a shamockery in fact that they bolster militarily against our State considering that their children are malnourished and their economy flustered. However, upon the information that they do have a missile capable of reaching our continent, I say we can no longer tolerate this mockery of a 'truce'. No, they aren't a threat to the continent but should we wait for them to be? Some might say military action would threaten the inhabitants, but sanctions do much the same. At least with a decisive victory, we could make it clear to the North Korean citizens that America no longer tolerates these kinds of actions. There's also geopolitical reasons for supporting a Strike: Our Japanese allies, who've stuck with us through all adversity, even after a hard fought world war(Which they could've easily held against us.) have diplomatic difficulties with the North(to say the very least), holding Japanese citizens in captive in violation of the Geneva Conventions. Of course, this would worsen relations with China who actually does bolster shall we say on and off relations with the North(China has sometimes backed them, sometimes its backed the INTL. Community). However, I believe we can tame the Chinese response if we can promote the idea of a new North Korean Government as improving ties with the South, and opening up its borders to innovation and technology. I do not take lightly to anyone threatening our homeland, if this were say Al Qaeda posting some propaganda video, we would probably be on some alert status of some kind. We should take the same response here, the same old tired act with North Korea has gotten us absolutely nowhere and in spite of hopes, the 'new' regime isn't any different than the old. If we could get the INTL Community to unite as it regards petty African dictators, we can surely bring peace to Eurasia and bring down one of the more repressive regimes against its own people and putting an end to its false bluffs against our own. Putting this situation in even further context, Israel had been pressuring us for years to bomb Iran and there are many Americans in actual favor of that. Despite the fact that Iran has been a relatively neutral country for decades and has never bolstered any such propaganda or attempts to our homeland. What do you think? Should we put an end to this meaningless war and free the North Koreans from their leadership's bondage? Or should we continue to stare and watch? I vote that we put an end to it, by putting an end to it, we will strengthen a future Asian Union.

@Lust You can go ahead and try to bring Facism to America, (assuming you're dumb enough to think it isn't happening already), but the moment you want to come and trample on my rights, well, let's just say those that seek to subjugate others will meet more-than-stiff resistance.

Only reason Facism worked in Nazi Germany was because of several reasons; first off, Germany faced economic troubles after being first to not only take responsibility for WWI, but also made to pay for the war, (October of last year, I believe, was when the country was FINALLY able to pay off that debt that the US and Allies imposed on it), and secondly, people were tired of the government that had turned its back on them and wanted a new type of leadership.

Ultimately, Facism would not work in the US, not certainly for economic and social reasons. Though there are signs of it already in play in the US government, we're actually seeing more and more socialism taking over, however painfully slow it is happening.

It's a general political mistake to believe Socialism to be the same as Fascism, Socialism by its nature subjugates the many to satsify the needs of the few. Socialism, in all of it's irony doesn't in fact support the state but in fact class warfare.

In this thread, a few pages earlier Jacob linked to an article depicting the class warfare inside North Korea.

Historically, the elite of the Chinese have escaped the one-child policy though that appears to be changing:

While Stalin fed his fat ass, the Soviet peasants were worked to death to build his death squad of tanks, tanks and more tanks. Anyone who didn't comply was killed.

We are moving more towards Soviet Russia, than the micromanagement and social inclusion of 19th century Italy and Germany.
