Chuckle of the Day: UN Calls For Existing Sanctions to be Enforced as Punishment on North Korea

So we need to show the tyrant by enforcing penalties which should already have been enforced. And to think our enemies are on the march and North Korea is still holding Americans hostage. Oh well score another one for the tyrant and his missile.

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The Security Council on Monday unanimously condemned North Korea's long-range rocket launch nearly two weeks ago as contravening a U.N. ban, and demanded enforcement of existing sanctions against Pyongyang.

The U.S.-authored statement, agreed on Saturday by the five permanent council members and Japan, ordered a U.N. sanctions committee to begin activating financial sanctions and an arms and limited trade embargo laid down in a resolution passed two and a half years ago.
