No, I think our official status since 1950 is that we're still officially at war.

We signed an armistice in 1953, pretty much agreeing we're not fighting a war, but we didn't agree the war was over.
People said a history degree was useless

We're going to be spreading ourselves way too thin if we get into a war with North Korea. If we do go to war with them, a draft would follow.

I have a feeling a war with North Korea would most likely be the following: bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb.

Only an armistice... technically a state of war still exists between NoKo and SoKo.
Chonger must have a massive death wish or a severe case of 'Lackanukie' disease... he can vaporize Seoul and other major cities at the expense of rendering everything south of the Yalu river and north of the 38th parallel uninhabitable for the next million years. Well, maybe they'll build a Wal-Mart in what used to be Pyongyang!

And with the ensuing nuclear ice age, we'd have an instant cure for global warming.
Sounds like a win-win.

Well, it can work if the parties involved are basically sane.
