News reading 10- The article I read talks about a nuclear attack on North Korea, how over 1/3 of Americans would be okay with dropping a nuclear weapon over North Korea, no matter if it meant killing about one million innocent people in the process. There was a poll that was taken with different scenarios, one with a casualty number of 5,000 and one with 1 million. There was no difference to the people that took this poll, they didn't care and still went with a nuclear attack. In the article, it stated, "If politicians don't expect voters to care about the difference between 5,000 and 1 million civilian casualties overseas, we probably can't expect that they'll care either." Which is a good point. People usually say something like this is a horrible decision and the casualties aren't worth it, but if the 1/3 of Americans that took the poll don't care about the difference of casualties, we really can't expect politicians too either. If the nuclear attack does happen, and there are several casualties, I feel as though that's when people will start to care and act like this shouldn't have happened. You can't act after something is done, the best time to act is before. So if needed, something can be done. I also think it's funny that the people okay with a nuclear attack happening are so okay with the amount of casualties that may occur, I can bet they'd be thinking differently if it were them on the line. How would they feel if it were us being targeted instead? They care then, but as long as it's not them, they couldn't care less. And that's not something I want to be apart of. I don't think there should be any nuclear attack of any kind. There can be a better way to fix things, better things to help other than war. War just seems to be the easiest path to take nowadays and that's really not okay. War doesn't solve anything but add more casualties and put more and more people at risk. I want to be done with any idea of war and move on to things that can be taken care of through talk or trade. Nuclear attacks aren't the move and neither is war.
