During an emergency United Nations Security Council meeting on Monday, Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the UN, said that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is “begging for war” and urged the UN to enact stronger economic sanctions on the country.
“Enough is enough. We have taken an incremental approach, and despite the best of intentions, it has not worked,” Haley said.
The UN convened an emergency Security Council meeting Monday after North Korea claimed it detonated a hydrogen bomb and had loaded a hydrogen bomb onto an intercontinental ballistic missile.
Haley said that the U.S. supports additional diplomatic efforts with North Korea, but she did not rule out military action.
“War is never something the Unites States wants — we don’t want it now,” Haley said. “But our country’s patience is not unlimited. We will defend our allies and our territory.”
President Donald Trump weighed in on North Korea on Sunday, tweeting that he is considering ending trade with all countries who trade with North Korea.
And Hair Furor is begging for a ratings bump for his failed badministration.
That’s one bad combo platter…
Trump: As soon as I give tax cuts to my very rich friends, I will ask China to fund my war with North Korea.
Haley’s version of Wonder Woman leaves a lot to be desired.
Sanctions won’t work as it’s in China’s interest to keep a barely functional North Korea alive. And military options are very limited unless we’re willing to accept heavy casualties in Seoul and other areas of South Korea.
Other Presidents recognized their limited options and did their best within those confines. Trump, on the other hand, in his narcissism and peevishness, his immaturity and ignorance, may well push things past the break point.
I can’t believe we actually need the Military to talk a President out of war.
You stupid sht, Nikki. Really. STOP poking the nutcase. This is all such unbelievable BS from those that will never be in a war or send their children to war. God.
