No difference if all if the representatives of the defense industry and their lackeys are way over-selling a threat. The important thing to drawing a parallel to Iraq war propaganda is to look at how they are also selling this idea: The enemy leader is all crazy and shit and wants to be the greatest suicide bomber of all time and is going to strike us knowing that it will be the end of them. Neither Saddam or Kim was/is actually like that. It's much more accurate to think of them as extremely self-interested crime bosses.Big difference between the two. We never really confirmed those WMD's of Sadam. Kim Il Dumnnuts has been confirmed to have nukes, and now has ballistic missiles. This isn't being "trumped" up. It's real.We have many of the same kind of people building up the NK threat that told us all that Saddam was about to destroy Israel and Europe with his vast stockpile of WMD's, excuse us if all this shit sounds way too familiar. You people bought the lie of WMDs and it seems you never learn, beating the war drum is just too much fun I guess.I noticed, just today at work , certain liberals put the emphasis on how BAD president Trump IS and underplay the sheer villainy of that little Napoleon running N. Korea. It's absurdist theater.I am not in agreement with our nation's foreign policy history, nor am I in favor of a military conflict with North Korea, but it really says something when the left in this country prefers to blame our own president for escalating a conflict that has been brewing for decades as opposed to the murderous dictator threatening to use nukes on Guam.
