Being an American and a member of the United States Army I can't begin to tell you how ignorant the first statement in your reply is. Your stereotype of America is very insulting and far from an even slightly educated guess. First off this isn't the first time posturing such as this has occurred and in the past the US solved things diplomatically by appeasing NK through various aid only for the same things to happen time and time again. You are also stating things as if this entire conflict stems for the US when it was joint UN sanctions stemming from the support of numerous world leaders that turned NK so volatile. I can tell you that no one I know in any branches of the Armed Forces desire a conflict with NK, nor any of the American citizens I run into daily wish for more war. I have friends station in korea and would hate to see them die. That being said, us soldiers will step in and risk our lives to protect innocent civilians from the dangers of war and aggression because that is our duty and what we have sworn to do. We don't want war, we don't want to kill, but we will protect those that are trying to live peaceful lives, and we will not stand by and let our family and friends be threatened with nuclear war. If our desire to live and protect people from the ravages of war and aggression is seen as us being war crazed then so be it but we will continue to fight and protect ourselves and our allies because that is who we are and what we care about. -Simple message from your average "war crazed" American LK, As an American as well and a brother and cousin to a military members I can see why people assume the US is a war-crazed nation. Its all propaganda and people take our actions in a different light when really we want us to be the "shining beacon of light" in the darkness and be the nice person in the world. Sometimes that requires war, and sometimes it has been a misused approach however we sometime do use war LK and its ok to be called war-mongering. I shrug it off, think it kind of funny. -- Though I am a 18 year old boy who finds everything funny Anyway, Can we keep this discussion on a serious note (enough Memes) though, k thnx
