#1 "Tough sanctions" to me would include a total blockade of NKor -- nothing in, nothing out. But the starving children, puppies, kittens, and fluffy bunnies will obviate that, won't they?

#2 I agree, nothing in, nothing out -- but I'm sure you're correct, despite the well-known fact that orphans only get to look at the food rather than eat it.

#3 You can be sure China / Russia will veto any action by the UN....

Anything going in should be distributed directly by SKOR or USAID (not the UN!) - and have a big farking 'From the USA' on the sack in Korean.

Not this rebranding as coming from Kimmie-boy-the-baby-killer shit.

#4 PRC will veto anything that drastic. But they'll probably serve up limited sanctions as a substitute. Getting them to vote for any sanctions will at least break precedent, and send the NKors a message. Inspections of NKor ships could be particularly humiliating - tied in with personal sanctions on travel, etc by Nkor higher ups, just might get Nkor generals contemplating the fate of the Ceaucescus(sp?)
