Will the United States attack North Korea first?



According to MSN, the United States government does not plan on attacking North Korea in a preemptive strike. Per stated here, "The senior U.S. diplomat for Asia, Susan Thornton, said on Thursday she understood the Trump administration had no strategy for a so-called bloody nose strike on North Korea, but Pyongyang would be forced to give up its nuclear weapons "one way or another."" However, could the United States be saying this to conceal their plan of attacking first? As we know, relations with North Korea are as bad as they can be. There is simply no other way of getting North Korea to surrender its nuclear arsenal other than brute force. (Example of fake news.)
