As hard as I look, I can't find any mention of massive US troop deployment to South Korea in any of these stories.

Being a threat is usually what makes America not worry about you...

WW2 is enough of an example...they usually just attack where there is not threat what so ever and financial gain is involved

North Korea has no way of deploying their weapons against the US.

You have control by holding nuclear weapons. You have absolutey no control when you use them. What gain does North Korea get by launching a nuke against anyone?

Nukes 101: Never use nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons are a deterrent.

Their country is on the verge of collapse. The North Koreans aren't stupid. Launching a nuke would be stupid.

The situation does require diplomacy and the like, but does not justify war.

Same could have been said for Iraq. Even if they had nukes, does anyone actually think they would use them? What would Saddam have to gain by Nuking Kuwair, or Israel, or Iran or the US? He'd get raped.
