What else could the US have done to completely defeat North Korea in the Korean War?

Korea was a politcical war. The USA soundly defeated North Korea but was suprised by the Chinese in their all out attack. The USA would not do an all out attack against the Chinese for fear of starting a nuclear war with them and the USSR. In the end politics decided the tactics and ultimate stalemate. Had the USA kept General McArthur in command and fought to win they would have. The USA had more and better field commanders, aircraft, naval vessels and tanks but they lacked the will to use them.

Why is it that Russia has so many nukes but if North Korea had a single nuke US would attack?

1) The US and Russia are for the most part no longer "enemies". 2) North Korea is very likely to use any possible nuclear technology against South Korea, which is a US ally; I don't think Russia wants to attack South Korea. 3) As I said earlier, Russia is not likely to attack the US, North Korea is.
