Gary Johnson: North Korea not capable of long-range nuclear missiles

• Gary Johnson: No, and I am not convinced that North Korea has or is capable of developing a long-range nuclear missile
• Jill Stein, John Kasich, and Ted Cruz: No
• Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders: No, we should let China address this issue
• Hillary Clinton: No, we must use every diplomatic option first

Jill Stein: Stop economic sanctions and cyber-attacks against Iran

STEIN: We define cyber attacks as an act of war so by our own definition we have engaged in unilateral warfare with Iran. That approach has been extremely unhelpful and we are not using diplomacy. If there are real threats to US security then sanctions are warranted but I don't see that Iran is threatening US security right now. The issue of Iran is that it has the potential to build nuclear weapons, it does not have nuclear weapons right now. There are already illegal nuclear weapons in the region in Israel and Pakistan. We need a comprehensive and evenhanded policy. There are drastic violations of human rights right now amongst both our friends and our enemies. Creating a nuclear free Middle East is the only way we are going to stop the development of nuclear weapons.

Jill Stein: National conversation before we go to war

STEIN: I think the priority is that we do not bypass the American people who have been routinely bypassed in most of the interventions in recent decades including Iraq and Libya. This is being done without the explicit permission from Congress and is a critical check and balance that has gotten lost in the shuffle and is a violation of the US Constitution and the war powers act. It is very dangerous when politicians declare war and exhaust economic resources and spill the blood of Americans and civilians overseas. Most of the conflicts of the last decade would not have happened had there been a national conversation and discussion about what the true risks and benefits of our national security were.
