I do think that the US buggered things up by arbitrarily dividing Korea to begin with.

Sunshine Policy ended for a reason; North Korea refused to change, unless you count hiding its nuclear tests better. Despite South Korea doing everything to help North Korea none of the South's grievances were met except family reunions, except the North continues to use it as a took; North Korea continues punishing defectors, working on nuclear capabilities, and torturing its prisoners, many of them there for reasons that wouldn't be considered crimes in most developed or even undeveloped nations. South Korea has tried these things time and time again since the fall of the Soviet Union but even during then the North has made threats to attack and overthrow the south which, despite what you say, has not been made by either the South or America since the Cold War. Also, war "games" makes sense; North Korea is weaker than the South but it can still do a lot of damage and it constantly threatens to attack the South, doing so every few years. I will say though, if America withdraws the South should develop its own nuclear weapons. It would finally give Korea something to do with its leftover fuel, fixing its storage issue (artificially created by the US)

3. How? Would you send the Indian secret service to take it from the Tower of London?
4. Nukes and the whole world.
