That'll learn ya!


From today's New York Times: [http://tinyurl.com/y7fdm6]

«The United Nations Security Council today took up a softened American proposal for sanctions over North Korea’s reported nuclear test, but its prospects were clouded when China appeared to pull back from its earlier support for tough measures.

The new American resolution, to be formally introduced this morning, would declare North Korea’s actions to be a threat to international peace and stability and would require countries to freeze assets related to Pyongyang’s nuclear and missile programs and ban the sale or transfer of materials that could be used in them. It would also ban travel by people involved in the programs and bar the sale of the luxury goods used to reward the regime’s elite, diplomats said late Wednesday.»

I'm sure that pretty soon, Dear Leader will be on his knees, begging for mercy... As soon as his stash of caviar, champagne and Cuban cigars runs out ... Any day now... We just have to be firm.
