NK is land locked on two sides and we can have multiple navies blockade the other two until the cows come home.

Yes - neither China nor South Korea want to see nukes spread around (especially China - if they ever go up against any Arab/Islamic countries, which wouldn't surprise me, the one thing they would have to fear would be nukes), and we should have them covered by sea with very little resources. People wanting military action will cool off after a few days and realize theat even if we could engage in significant action, it's not necessary as this point.

What worries me is the bleeding hearts that will inevitably claim that cutting aid to NK is going to cause people to starve. Give it a few days, and they will come out in droves.

That works ONLY if china cuts off aide. They have NOT yet said that they will do that. I am NOT holding my breath on it either.
