The U.N. Security Council adopted a statement Friday condemning the attack that led to the sinking of a South Korean warship without directly linking North Korea to the incident.
The 15-member council unanimously approved the statement one day after five veto-wielding members, including the North's major ally China, agreed to a draft statement.
China succeeded in diluting the statement, as it did not point the finger at North Korea and included North Korea's denial of involvement in the incident, which killed 46 sailors in the Yellow Sea in March. "The Security Council condemns the attack which led to the sinking of the Cheonan," the 11-point statement said.

Give them a little more time and they’ll arrive at a consensus that the South Korean sub was Bush whacked.
“U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton welcomed the statement. “The U.N. Security Council’s condemnation of North Korea’s attack on the South Korean ship Cheonan sends a clear message that such irresponsible and provocative behavior is a threat to peace and security in the region and will not be tolerated”
Um...did Hil and I read the same U.N. statement?
We strongly condemn the annexing of the Sudetenland by whoever did it. Pathetic.
