Of course, everyone knows that North Korea launched their missile over Japan this morning which has prompted a series of angry remarks (Washington Times<\/a>);<\/p>\n

North Korea carried out its threatened launch of a long-range rocket over Japan on Sunday, defying international warnings and sparking an angry response from its Asian neighbors and the United States.<\/p>\n

Japan immediately called for an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council, which said it would hold that meeting Sunday afternoon. South Korea decried the launch as a \u201creckless act.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, so what will the Security Council do? Probably something along the lines of President Obama’s response (Washington Post<\/a>);<\/p>\n

In a speech grimly punctuated by current events, President Obama Sunday called for a world without nuclear weapons shortly after North Korea defied global warnings to fire a long-range rocket. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, that’s the ticket – we’ll all disarm. That’ll embarrass the North Koreans into abandoning their nuclear objectives. Well, the UN has approved the emergency meeting (Fox News<\/a>);<\/p>\n

Mexico’s mission to the United Nations set the meeting for 3 p.m. EDT (1900 GMT), spokesman Marco Morales said. Mexico holds the 15-nation council’s presidency this month.<\/p>\n

That approval came after Japan submitted a formal letter requesting an emergency session of the United Nations council that handles threats to international peace and security. “We received a letter and there will be a meeting,” Morales said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So what can they do? Sanctions? What’s left to sanction? The wind? Dust? That’s all they’ve got left. The North Koreans did it because they know how weak and ineffectual the world is with Obama at the helm of this country – like we were a paper tiger when Carter was president. Is this the test Biden warned us about? Well, it looks like there’s going to be a failing grade. <\/p>\n

Any want-wit knows that if someone on our side had shot the missile down as soon as it left Nork airspace, that would have been the strongest message we could send. Obama missed his opportunity, Japan missed their opportunity. Anything they do now is just farting in a hurricane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
