If we use a nuclear bomb in NK, it will give the rest of the world permission to use their nuclear weapons. And perhaps encourage them to use them as a first strike.
China could walk into NK tomorrow and put an end to all of this. But I'm sure they don't want that mess. But, really, it is their mess to deal with. They have kept NK propt up for no real good reason.
