The U.N. Security Council met in emergency session on Sunday afternoon to discuss concerns over North Korea's launch of a long-range rocket. But the closed-door consultations did not produce a clear and unified response.
Diplomats say the council was unified in its deep concern over the launch, but that it could not immediately agree what form its response should take.
The United States and Japan say they want a clear message in the form of a Security Council resolution condemning the launch.
U.S. Ambassador, Susan Rice said "It is our view that this action merits a clear and strong response from the United Nations Security Council. We will be embarked on additional consultations with partners in the Security Council as well as allies and concerned parties outside of the Security Council towards obtaining that kind of outcome."

But the closed-door consultations did not produce a clear and unified response. Exactly what they knew would happen before they pushed the button.

A person could be led to believe that ‘action’ like this might tend to make a body think we citizens are gonna get ourselves killed in the US, accidentally on purpose, that is. After all, them thar fancy weapons ‘n miss-aisle deefense, boy, we don’ need no stinkin’ miss-aisles. Afterrr awl, y’all thenk wur hix. We jus’ awl wanna git along n’ mind awr peace. Now whar’s mah spit-toon? Grab me a coal drink thar whilst yer up now, woodja?
