BB: I have felt for years that when a country uses a weapon of mass destruction, thus placing itself outside the human family, there IS only one response. That's it. Why frig around?

My notion about North Korea was to lend South Korea the same number of missiles. Tit for tat. Let's not pretend to a civility when it comes to WMDs. There is no such thing as "Oops. Little mistake there. Didn't mean to kill all those people in your country. So sorry." Frig that.

Also, the countries you mention (most if not all) have the same capability. Nothing here mentions the USA. They are not the goddamned cops of the world, and they are not the only country capable of protecting itself.

Simple, really. If you do this, this is what will happen, and there is not one damn thing you can do about it. So, behave and make nice.
