Yeah we could launch air strikes,but air power alone can't take ground. Those who advocate nuke strikes of any kind are nuts. Neither you nor I can say how China or Russia would react and I personally would prefer not to find out. With a large portion of our troops tied up in Iraq and Afghanistan there really isn't a hell of alot we COULD do if NK invaded SK,we just don't have the resources any more...and NK knows it. I'm just surprised that they haven't invaded already.
All we could really do is just sit back and watch. And as for air strikes,NK has one hell of an air defense system so if we did it expect heavy losses. This isn't Iraq we are talking about. This is a Nation that has spent the past 50 years preparing for this.
