Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton on Friday strongly condemned North Korea's latest nuclear test and said she supported U.S. President Barack Obama's call to increase sanctions on the East Asian country.

"I support President Obama’s call to both strengthen the sanctions passed earlier this year with the United Nations and to impose additional sanctions," Clinton said in a statement.

Any rational "Strategic, International Thinker" like Clinton should know they ONLY way to solve this problem is to deploy 50 Pershing IIs in Japan and another 50 in South Korea.

Then notify the Chinese we will remove them when the Nork nuke capability is totally and completely eliminated.

Three Presidents have been totally duped by the Chinese and have been dangerously tolerant of the Norks.

BJ Clinton promised us he had solved the NK problem and nothing bad would happen under his deal with the Norks.

Funny how quick Clinton, bammy, and their cohorts in crime are to condemn NK. Yet when the Iranians blatantly violate agreement after agreement, the send cash. Almost like there was a racial or religious motivated for the disparity. Hmmm

I'd like to give them an unsanctioned scud in the courtyard of little one's palace - each day for 30 days.

Why is she condemning the NK nuclear tests? She should be praising them, since her husband [in name only] gave the technology to NK back in the 90s. This is an example of the great foreign policy achievement of her husband, which she hopes to emulate!

Nothing, I’m sure. If China cut off all oil and food, that might have some effect. But that will never happen. China is the puppeteer and NK is the puppet.

Their sanctions have NEVER worked.

Oh hey, lets slap sanctions on Iran and then pay them billions.
What a f’cked up bunch of morons.

FLASHBACK: BILL CLINTON: US WILL BE SAFER BECAUSE OF MY NORTH KOREA DEAL

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3467987/posts

Here’s a flashback to Bill Clinton explaining how his fake deal with North Korea that let it go nuclear will keep America safe.

Bill Clinton quoted:

“Good afternoon. I am pleased that the United States and North Korea yesterday reached agreement on the text of a framework document on North Korea’s nuclear program. This agreement will help to achieve a longstanding and vital American objective: an end to the threat of nuclear proliferation on the Korean Peninsula.”

“This agreement is good for the United States, good for our allies, and good for the safety of the entire world. It reduces the danger of the threat of nuclear spreading in the region. It’s a crucial step toward drawing North Korea into the global community.”

“Today, after 16 months of intense and difficult negotiations with North Korea, we have completed an agreement that will make the United States, the Korean Peninsula, and the world safer. Under the agreement, North Korea has agreed to freeze its existing nuclear program and to accept international inspection of all existing facilities.”

“This agreement represents the first step on the road to a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula. It does not rely on trust. Compliance will be certified by the International Atomic Energy Agency. The United States and North Korea have also agreed to ease trade restrictions and to move toward establishing liaison offices in each other’s capitals. These offices will ease North Korea’s isolation.”
