The nuclear weapons are the only thing stopping the U$ from murdering 20% of their population and razing 80% of their buildings. Again.
The sanctions are meant to torture the civilians. It's siege warfare.
End of active Korean war: 1952
NK food stamp baby rattle, I mean, nuclear testing: 2006
No they aren't. The US isn't invading North Korea because they have no reason to.
It would just be a mindless slaughter with no real gain.
Please read about the Korean War and the US's fascist pursuit against Communist/Socialist countries. The US has specific policies about stamping out Communism, with devastating consequences for those countries.
Please tell me specifically what you think I should know and add sources if you can find them.
Saying "just look it up bro" isn't conducive to discussion and just tells me you're not confident in your argument.
I just watched this documentary by a Korean American where you can find some information about it in the context of Korea. He interviews a South Korean lawyer who specializes in the legal defense on North Koreans, as well as a couple North Korean now living in the south.
You can also watch this video that talks more widely about the red scare and military actions against socialist countries. There are sources in the video description if you are interested.

The U$ still militarily occupies Korea.
That's not guaranteed. The U$ did not win the Korean war.
