deplore, condemn, urge......

The UN Security Council is a farce, and unless Russia and China get on board to tighten the screws until that pipsqueak troll in Pyongyang bursts like a bubble all the "resolutions" in the world are meaningless.

The UN likes to shake it's finger and say "bad bad North Korea".... but we can get 17 more UN SC resolutions that won't be worth a pail of warm spit unless something more serious is done.

Ok... going to be a bit cynical here for a sec.

So the UN Consensus so far is on: Recalling, Reaffirming, Deploring, Registering profound concern, Expressing further concern, Reminding Member States, Deploring, Expressing grave concern, Recalling, Reaffirming, and then Determining.

While the optional (not all members) will additionaly: condem, decide, decide, and strongly urge.

Sounds to me like there is only 2 bits of deciding on anything, and those are not fully in.

Oh no, Kim is going to be cowering in fear from this!

I guess the world will have to witness a nuclear detonation prior to real "consequences" being seen.

Indeed. North Korea has said it would regard economic sanctions as an act of war.

Looks like Mommy still stands there with strained peas all over her face while baby Kimmi laughs and gets no consequences. Might even get candy before he's done.

It will turn out that the the UN rebuke against NK will be a terse letter protesting NK's polluting the Sea of Japan with missile parts.
