Trouble on the way!
What NK's ambassador said at the SC meeting, was in effect the last warning we will have... before this thing escalates. Which way will it go? Anyones' guess, but count on an 'incident' about the first time we (that means the U.S.) stops one of their ships (either coming or going) and tries to inspect it.

My idea....that whomever tries to stop one of their ships will be the recipient of a LOT of trouble!

What a mess!!!

1. Didn't Kim make the statement that if they brought forth sanctions,
he would continue with the tests and worse? One of the reporters on CNN made the statement that when Kim makes a threat, he generally carries it out. I'm just afraid they are baiting him to make the first "move" and then we will be able to make our "move" with a clear conscience. Same old, same old.

Look who you have at the helm. What better diversion?

2. The question becomes
can Dear Leader project power? He can certainly attack across the DMZ, but his other options are limited, militarily. There might be other rabbits in the hat, but I can't for the life of me think of what they would be.

3. It would only make sense,
to have moved some of the nukes in inventory out of the area before beginning any testing. Threats and sanctions were being talked about for a long time and it doesn't take a genius to think three steps ahead. (BTW we need someone who can)

If three or four nukes are floating around en route to the us as we speak, this could get nasty.
