You’re quite correct. “Make” is the word I should have used.

Every American should start boycotting Communist Chinese products with vengeance, until they stop trading with their good friends the North Koreans.

If Japan starts pulling their citizens out of South Korea that would very probably be a very bad sign.

Scenario: SK takes out Kim.

Then waits.

The new rulers of NK have to decide whether to go to full war. If they do, they are warned the US will enter also. But that would be a defensive
move on our part.

That way,the great powers stand aside and let the Koreans settle it.
And possibly the new rulers of NK won’t want to go to war on behalf of the late, great, Kim dynasty...

Maybe...

The new rulers of NK have to decide whether they'd like the incoming US war planes to beloaded with food for their now FREE starving citizens, or bombs to be dropped on themselves.
