Korea & the United Nation

Simple facts -
North Korea is nuts.
North Korea is a significant risk to the US due to the possibility they give "WMD" to a terrorist group. It is well documented that they have exported missle technology to Iran and other countries in the Middle East. It is likely that they would give or sell technology to our adversaries.

The UN is incapable of asserting restraint over them. China and Russia see North Korea and other rogue states as a counter balance to US influence in the world.

Simple Truth -
The US and western allies cannot rely on the UN. We should halt the pretense that the UN is effective. We must defend our national interests. We need to look for ways to up the stakes with countries that don't act to limit the activities to dangerous adversaries.
