Obama said Iran and North Korea “must be held accountable” if they continue to ignore international nuclear weapons treaties.

How do you hold a sovereign nation "accountable" except through the threat or application of military force? Apparently Obama and his ilk think that there's some other way.

Economic sanctions can work if every big player would do it. Unfortunately, Russia and China won’t puinish Iran. Also, we know the religious fanatic leading Iran doesn’t worry about mutually assured destruction. I don’t see any option other than military.

He's hoping that Oprah might do a special, or the Dixie Chicks might right a mean, but catchy tune.
