Second nuke test by N. Korea would lead to 'consequences': Bosworth

By Lee Chi-dong

SEOUL, May 8 (Yonhap) -- The senior U.S. nuclear envoy on Friday dismissed North Korea's recent claim that the Obama administration is hostile towards Pyongyang, saying Washington is continuing efforts for bilateral and multilateral dialogue with the communist nation, On a trip here highlighted by the North's renewed threats to bolster its nuclear arsenal, Stephen Bosworth made clear that if North Korea puts its threats into action, it will face "consequences."

"If the North Koreans decide to carry out a second nuclear test, we will deal with the consequences of that, and there will be consequences," Bosworth told reporters after talks with South Korean Foreign Minister Yu Myung-hwan on ways to resume the six-way talks on Pyongyang's nuclear program. The negotiations also involve China, Russia, and Japan.

Bosworth said he and the minister discussed "possible steps forward" in the stalled denuclearization process but refused to elaborate.

So what would they want to do? Seizing NK bank accounts again, and later giving it back?

I hope that the Dear Leader is ready for a strongly worded letter of protest from Osama Hussein Obama.

So, what is the answer?

Attack the missile site, nuclear site, etc., a rain of hell falls on Seoul (25 miles away from NK).

Why are we still mixed up in an internal Korean conflict, 56 years after the fact?

"...we will deal with the consequences of that, and there will be consequences," Bosworth said

The consequences are that Obama..... will furrow his brow.
'nuff said!

Obummer administration’s idea of consequences:

RINGING THEIR DOORBELL AND RUNNING

SLAP ON THE WRIST WITH A RULER MADE OF CLAY

SHAKING THEIR FIST AT THEM VERY FORCEFULLY

RUNNING HOME TO TELL THEIR MAMA

The message that Kim and his generals take from this: The U.S. is no longer using the word "dire".

Democrats are drama queens and buffoons on the world stage and a terminal disease at home.

Another yappy little dog from the feckless Obama administration. I’m sure the Norks are shivering with fear.
