First off im not a party hard liner, i didnt like alot of what bush did and i certainly dont like alot of what obamas doing but i give him his credit when its do.
LOL dude they were under sanctions or something or other im not quite sure what that prohibited them from launching anything...that broke that agreement by launching the satelite whether it was a sucessful test or not is irrelevant whether it carried a warhead or not is irrelevant what is certain is that by not addressing that issue it led to this issue
LOL what the fuck ever bro that arguement is retarded...this first launch you may have a tad bit of ground to stand on but even that is a horrible arguement and this last action of NK and the for sure future actions of NK are on obamas plate bro. If you want to say that obama is following right in line with bush's actions on this then fine either way i disagree with the actions, its not about bush or obama bro, you should stop watching msnbc.
Yes, they were under sanctions... UN SANCTIONS. Which they agreed to in exchange for financial aid. It was not Barry's obligation to go to war or whatever you expected him to do because Nk violated a UN agreement. The administration worked with the UN Security Council to tighten sanctions and that's is really the only reasonable thing that could have and should have been done.
And, yes, whether or not the test was successful is relevant in regards to your first post in this thread which you criticized the president for "doing nothing" in response to a missile test. A missile test and a nuclear test are two drastically different things. What exactly do you think the administration should have done? Gone to war ? I guess you don't see how well poorly planned posturing has worked out over the last eight years. Like it or not, rushing into wars at the slightest provocation does no one any good. Going to war with a country over non-working missile technology is as stupid as going to war over WMDs that don't exist.
