Bully with Nukes

There is new evidence that North Korea may be preparing for an underground test of a nuclear bomb, U.S. officials told ABC News.
"It is the view of the intelligence community that a test is a real possibility," said a senior State Department official.
A senior military official told ABC News that a U.S. intelligence agency has recently observed "suspicious vehicle movement" at a suspected North Korean test site.
. . .
Asked what the United States would do in response to a nuclear test, a senior U.S. official told ABC News, "We would try to hermetically seal the hermit kingdom."
The official said the United States would immediately push for sanctions to cut North Korea's ties to the outside world. Another possible option would be a naval blockade of North Korea.
But it is unclear how effective such efforts would be. North Korea is already the most isolated country in the world.

I think it would do the world some good for this nut job to finally get nukes. I hope someone important wakes up and says "Hey, we actually have to do something about this." Imagine that.
Oh,e but it isn't the Norks' people who are doing this. They are a bunch of humble farmers who are kept starving in the dark by their elite leader class of despots.
So, what? I believe a nation's people should be held responsible for their government's decisions. If it comes to pass that the rest of the world has a problem with GW listening in on international conversations keeping an ear out for people who want to hurt us, then let them make their own phone system.
I don't feel like standing on the soap box right now. I'm off to have a life.
