The Trump administration and key Asian allies are preparing to expand interceptions of ships suspected of violating sanctions on North Korea, a plan that could include deploying U.S. Coast Guard forces to stop and search vessels in Asia-Pacific waters, senior U.S. officials said… link |

America is not going to stop then getting nuclear weapons. Perhaps time to stop being obsessed with military options and start talking. |

Normally I would agree but when it comes to North Korea talking really isn't an option. For talking to succeed both sides have to be willing to listen. Fatman |

Far as I can tell NK has been talking a lot more since his 4 to 8 year shake down of the US was refused. Big sticks usually lead to more eventual negotiation than paying Danegeld. |

Rent a mini sub. Find the NK ships on the open sea parked to exchange cargo. Attach small explosive charges to props/rudders via undersea travelled attachment. Then when GPS says the NK is heading back to home…. a metallic sounding bang. Its an open seas drifter very slowly sinking. NK can shout all it wants but they will say nothing to "hide the cargo transfer", they cannot claim the cargo was loaded in a friendly port…. as it wasn't, and lastly they cannot account for the path of questionable travel for their ships. Bonus, wreck the props/rudders of the ship that met the NK ship on the open seas too. |

"Perhaps time to stop being obsessed with military options and start talking." Because that's been so successful before. |

Exactly. It's hilarious when people think that hasn't been tried. Dan |
