As usual, I have no idea where you get this stuff. I did not
"advocate" either a North Korea strike or no North Korea strike. I
write Generational Dynamics analyses, and all I do is analyze the
likely consequences of either decision. So, from the point of view of
Generational Dynamics, a North Korea strike will lead to WW III, and
no North Korea strike will lead to WW III. I did not "advocate"
either of them.
If I did have to express my personal opinion and advocate one option
or the other, I really would have no idea which to recommend without a
lot of research. If it were up to me, I would get extensive military
and diplomatic analyses of the two options, and then I would try to
decide which option would be in the best interest of the United
States, and most likely to allow the US to survive WW III.
I'll say this: Since the world is headed for WW III anyway, then I
personally would lean towards whatever policy is least likely to be
viewed by historians as "stupid," and if possible I would prefer that
the United States not be blamed for starting WW III, if it's
possible to do so and still have the nation survive.
