More Saber Rattling from the Norks

No shit!  Makes some of my more unpleasant memories seem... somewhat pleasant.

They are still at it.

A rather blithe reply with regard to the latest out of NK.

Asked Tuesday morning whether she expects a strong condemnation from the United Nations, U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice said: "We'll do the usual drill."

It was a surprising response to an international incident that was largely seen as a threat to the U.S. and one that prompted the U.N. Security Council to call an emergency meeting of world representatives.

Actually, that would piss the norks off more than anything since the regime hungers (!) for some kind of international significance:

Norks: "We Bad, yes we is!"

US: "Whateves...  ::)"

Remember Blazing Saddles?  "And the little bastard shot me right in the ass."

[Mr. Bigglesworth]

"Nuclear test monitors in Vienna say the underground explosion had double the force of the last test, in 2009, despite the use of a device said by the North to be smaller.

If a smaller device was indeed tested, analysts said this could take Pyongyang closer to building a warhead small enough to arm a missile."

So people are going to wait to negotiate when they can load a missile with this thing?

How Fing stupid is everybody?

This is the lesson of the boy who cried WMD!

Indeed.  More than anything else, the Nork leadership can't stand to be ignored.  They're like that brat who misbehaves just for the attention.
