North Korea is a ticking Bomb. When Kim Jong lee gets close to dying from old age, were going to have a bit of a pickle.
The UN is a joke. We pay 90% of the fees for the UN. The last time the United States left the UN it fell apart and couldnt even stop a rogue beaten country named Germany.
The scenario is the same, the UN has never really shown any force other than in the most blatant situations that were incorrectly maneuvered politically. AKA Gulf War. If Saddam were more diplomatic and gave some sort of a reason, and the US were panzies like france and Germany, then Kuwait would be Iraqi territory right now.

MAD does not work when you have a leader who only cares for the welfare of himself. Unless he really loves his kids America might get nuked when he starts getting close to dying.
Not to mention China will help the US in the event the NK does something rash and inappropriate to the point that it has no choice. The last korean war had china only because it was still communist and part of the USSR.

Currently, the US and China are still at an unspoken standoff. Taiwan has been threatening to split for a while now, though faded from the media, when it does, there may either no longer be a taiwain, or Ill be heading toward a fallout shelter for the long nuclear winter ahead.
