I read through all of this.

here is a chronology of events from 1985 to today.
The summary at the top and the timelines for 2003 and 2006. Nowhere did I see where they renounced the 1953 truce with South Korea.

They've thumbed their nose at various other treaties and agreements they've made in the meantime, but apparently this is a new thing as far as I can tell.

Sure. How many American lives and dollars are you willing to sacrifice so that you can feel we've dealt severely enough with him?

You and your ilk were saying the same thing about Saddam for years. Now after over 4000 dead and a total cost in the neighborhood of $2 trillion, we're no better off than we were before.

That entire region is still a powder keg and all we've really done is embolden Iran.

Yeah, what we need is more tough guy cowboy diplomacy, because the world is so much safer and more peaceful now than it was 8 years ago.
