"Deaths of a few" ???

If you are going to "confront reality" then that includes the acknowledgement that the use of nuclear weapons involves calculating the risk due to the fallout cloud of radiation. Those calculations, from what is posted above, seem to be inadequate or faulty or both. A nuke strike on NK would result in a cloud of killing radiation that would move east, over both South Korea and Japan. Tens of thousands of citizens in those two countries, if not more, would likely be poisoned or die. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands in the NK who would be vaporized. And once the NK guys see our weapons flying through the air aimed at them, then what reason would they have not to lob any and all of their weapons towards China, SK, Japan, Russia? Any person, liberal or conservative or whatever, should be able to understand that.

Maybe: Playing too many video games?
