Get real. Just cut off the food and let them starve. If we strike North Korea then Seoul gets pummeled in retaliation. There is no way to get all their artillery and rocket positions before they have savaged the city.

Obama is an armature. He makes threats he can't carry out, and that means nobody takes him seriously. Threaten to cut off food aid, that is a real threat. Threaten to blockade their coast, that is a real threat. Threaten anything short of all out invasion to push them back out of range of Seoul and they know it is a bluff. And we don't have the forces in theater to actually invade the North so even that would be a bluff without a major buildup first.

I remember when we flew rice into NK. They would reject the bags with any Korean or Japanese markings. We would have to re-bag the rice in bags with Indian markings. I'm certain that the NK poeple have no idea that their two southern neighbors were feeding them.
