Today if war breaks out Kim will get the blame, but we know there was much more going on in terms of US aggression stoking up tensions, today it is much more clearly US responsibility as the only genuine superpower, with the Chinese in 2017 much less influential than the Russians in 1950 in North Korea.
Did the US need to bomb every single possible target in NK including small villages to the point where bombers were grounded since there was nothing left to bomb? Was this the price of stopping "communism"/securing American interests in Asia?
