U.S. has huge economic leverage. Time to use it. Only way to resolve this without bloodshed.

U.S. hasn't used its leverage, so China feels it can push U.S. around. It has been clear for some time that there should be more than nice talk to force China to use its leverage on N. Korea. If it doesn't, then it should be prepared to pay economic cost.

Agreed. 10 years of sanctions and NK is knocking on the door of having an ICBM capability. Fail. This is an issue that needs to be resolved once and for all.

Or we can do what we normally do. point, make fun of Kim Jong-un’s hair, and laugh. Well, ridicule hasn’t stopped their progress. I’m so sick and tired of this game:

1.) They’ll never develop an implosion device
2.) They’re 3-5 years away from a device
3.) Oh, it was just a fizzle
4.) It wasn’t actually a bomb but a Trinity ‘device’
5.) It was smaller than Hiroshima
6.) They’ll never miniaturize it
7.) They don’t have the missiles
8.) Their missiles always fail
9.) Their missiles can’t reach the United States

Anybody else see a pattern here?
