We don't send thousands of Americans to die because the leader of NK is beating his fists on his chest.
This is why we are where we are at with North Korea. We have two options...
1) Go to war
2) Do nothing
The end result is pretty much the same - the United States is still standing - but with option number one tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of Americans will die.

There is not a need for that many Americans to die if the the conflict were to be conducted properly, which would mean the politicians keeping there hands off, but since they will not you could be correct. There would be millions of Koreans die for sure.
I have my own ideas about what I would do if I were to be in charge of the conflict but will not state them because I will not be in charge so anything I have to say one way or another is not of any importance.
