China will fill their trainloads of supplies and bring them TO the border, but stop AT the border and have NK lug it all by hand.

See, China has complained recently because when they send a trainload of supplies to NK, the train engineers etc are given a ride back to the border, and NK keeps the trains as well!

FOX news said earlier that they were going to

Strongly Condemn the actions of North Korea
Tell North Korea that they had to stop making nukes
Tell North Korea they had to disarm

A lot of fluff nothing more. There will be no serious action taken. The list was pathetic.

Once again a nice dog and pony show...but not bite.

Did anyone expect more? Seriously now? Anyone...anyone at all.

100% for public consumption in the West. China has no intention of doing much about the DPRK.

Tiny, tiny potential slap on the wrist. China's sock-puppet is home-free.

And the White House, Congress and the MSM continues to play the part of Neville Chamberlain very well.

Is that actually true? I wouldn't put it past the North Koreans, but it sure takes the cake for chutzpah.

Just unbelievable. I've also read reports of the North Korean military engaging in bankrobbery, kidnapping and counterfeiting Chinese currency along the border.

"We hope the situation will be resolved before an unfortunate incident of us firing a nuclear missile comes," Yonhap quoted an unidentified North Korean official as saying. "That depends on how the U.S. will act."

The sound of nuclear blackmail...

North Korea and Iran are both pets of China and Russia who have now grown up to become little monsters. The world will pay a heavy price for their support of these nut cases and when the time comes, we must remember who ultimately was responsible.
