Are you actually asking for twenty reasons? I will give some, and if more are required, perhaps someone else will add to my answer. North Korea is now a nuclear power, so war with North Korea could result in the nuclear destruction of some major city such as Seoul, which would be a great tragedy. The US is currently over-extended with the two wars it is already fighting, in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the US really is in no position to fight yet another war. There are always innocent civilians ("colateral damage") who get killed by wars, so war is never a happy thing. It does not appear likely that China would be willing to allow the US to attack North Korea, and the US would not like to get into a war with China, which is tremendously more powerful than North Korea is. Remember that China still considers itself to be a communist nation, despite the introduction of free market economics. Communist North Korea is still considered to be a client state of China.

As a matter of fact China did not join South Korea it joined North Korea.The truth to all this was that than Kim asked China for their blessing to invade South Korea.As the allied forces pushed North Koreans back China grew scared that the americans may also invade China so in turn it sent one millionChineseforces to prevent the americans from reaching the river which divides North Korea and China.North Korea was in the brink of loosing the war if itwasn'tfor China's intervention North Korea would of cease to exist.
It is always a possibility, but 60 years ago North Korea had the approval of Russia and the support of China. That support is not a certainty now.
no one has to get any permission to invade a country!
North Korea is communist, and South Korea is democratic. The Korean War had ended in a stalemate (when neither side gets a victory) so they remained split apart, and with different governments.
Hitler did not invade North Korea.
North Korea.
To unify Korea under North Korean control.

We stopped em (communists) in Korea, we'd stop em again in Vietnam. However, we didn't repeat one mistake...we did NOT invade North Vietnam as we DID invade North Korea during the Korean War. That action (in Korea) brought Red China into the war. We bombed North Vietnam, but did not invade it.

It was not that hard to do- there is not much distance between them. It was hard to get them out because the Chinese helped them maintain their position.
