Agreed - postulating no cold war was in fact contra-factual history (my old professor would have bust a gut) It is a most seductive pastime though.
I understand the US's desire for a local solution but looking for logic from someone as paranoid as KJI is perhaps asking too much. Hence, in my view, the US's fairly realistic agreement to a short 1:1. I am moderately hopeful that NK will be reasoned with through diplomatic means, but there are a lot of variables in international relations at the moment so I am perhaps making my assessment on hope rather than judgement.
