Today the United Nation Security Council voted unanimously to impose sanctions against North Korea in response to the country's claimed nuclear test. The vote was 15-0.
Bolton wrote:"We are pleased that the Security Council is united in condemning the actions by the regime and Pyongyang and taking clear, firm and punitive action in passing this resolution. The Security Council is prepared to meet threats to international security with swift resolve."

Ignorance...
We won't "go to war" with N.K. for MANY reasons, none of which involve the lack of oil.

We won't go to war with any nuclear powers or even suspected nuclear powers.

nono, originally he lied and said he was behind 9/11
when people called bullshit on that, he said it was about WMD
when people called bullshit on that, it turned into toppling saddam to bring a "stable" government to the middle east!
it was really for the oil, but whatever i guess

Personally I think it's far too late at this point for our goal to be non nuclear proliferation in N. Korea. What we need to concentrate on is avoiding a situation that would give N. Korea a reason to use them, and keep N. Korea from selling or leaking nuclear products and technology to entities that would use them. This is not to say I think we should pander to Kim Jong Il or concede to his demands, but we should be making an effort toward actions that will improve the economy of N. Korea. It may be overly optimistic, but I don't feel Kim Jong will use nuclear weapons for shits and giggles. His goal is not destruction at all costs, but to retain power, something a destabilized economy in N. Korea will threaten, and it is for this reason I feel sanctions is a very dangerous gamble if not an outright mistake.
I'm more in favor of communicating with N. Korea, that is again not to say we should pander to it's demands, but to facilitate responsible control of it's now existent Nuclear technology. This is not to say we should try and control it's use, frankly retention of power and international pressure from the world will do that for us, but rather prevention of the leaking of technology or products to other entities or powers beyond the N. Korean government.
Of course the Untied States position and actions surrounding the matter are being closely watched by Iran, and while we'd rather not encourage Iran to develope a nuclear arsenal, I think we could effectively deal with N. Korea without doing so, and if played right possibly even deter Iran from doing so if the resulting situation is percieved as more intrusive then Iran would want to deal with.

I don't even get pissed off at the idiocy and ignorance here on the NT anymore. It's better just to laugh at the morons.

ok, so who profited
james baker whos oil holding company just upticked in the 6 billion dollar range.
it was about oil but not the way you think. its to control the oil flow to keep prices up. saddam was a loose canon ignoring the opec cartel and undercutting them in the market and he had to go. if it was a true free market in oil the price per barrel would be in the 20 dollar or less range.
its the same reason that el presidente wants the removal of the pres of venezuala.
and if you dont remember the bush stumping that we had to remove saddam because he was devoloping nukes then your a retard

I don't see why NK should get special treatment for behaving like children. Their neighbors will probably bomb them before we do in an effort to save their own country from the effects of war with the US.
I wish that a talk would solve things. But it won't. It will only give fame to people who don't deserve it.

I was speculating, actually. When they did this shit, China got mad. I assumed they would PMS on NK if NK tried to war with US because China doesn't want the BS leaking onto their soil.
