Three PODs in one post is a bit much. I'll just tackle the most interesting.

What if Douglas MacArthur's advice is taken and the united states blockades Chinese ports and Attacks china with Nuclear weapons

I believe that if this happened, the Soviets would enter the war. Hello, World War Three!

Its not three in one, its three seperate ones, I didn't want to make three threads, it seemed a bit much

What if Douglas MacArthur's is successful in his attempt to take over North Korea The War is over in early 1951 and is unversally seen as a truimph for the West and UN.

What if South Korea is defeated before the UN can step in to help

The United States, UK, and either the UN or many of the nations that contributed force to the UN, conduct a series of amphibious landings and kick the DPRK out of the South drive North and eventually provoke a PRC reaction by ingoring Beijing's warning to stay at least 50 miles from the PRC frontier.
