“Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) said Tuesday that the U.S. had the right to take preemptive military action against North Korea if there was ‘solid evidence’ that Kim Jon Un planned to attack the U.S. or South Korea. ’I don’t think we have to wait until Americans are killed or wounded or injured in any way,’ he continued. ‘I’m not saying we should be rushing into war, don’t get me wrong, but if we have solid evidence that North Korea’s going to take action, then I think we have a moral obligation and an absolute right to defend ourselves.’ North Korea’s actions are thought to be driven by additional United Nations sanctions that resulted from its recent nuclear test.”
