#1 "100- or 1,000-fold" retaliation

But if the ship is not carrying any contraband, then what's the big deal?

#5 They realize they can't get a missile to work so they sail the bomb to Hawaii in a rusty bucket instead.

#6 You notice that they sent the guided missile destroyer USS John McCain--not the guided marshmallow frigate USS Barack Hussein Obama or the unguided marshmallow frigate USS Joe Biden.

#8 But will the Norks give us permission to intercept, board, or fire a potato gun across their bow? The US govt might as well tell us, as we know everything else about the proposed meeting jawbone session interception.

#9 Mike, gotta say good stuff.

They should keep on the lookout for a semi-mersable fiberglass deally headed for someplace like Hokadate, IMHO. Intercept sure, but beware the feint.

#10 Aah, I miss the heady days of pre-emptive strike policies and 1% solutions...Instead we have endless apologies for being Americans and for trying to extract information out of terrorist killers who hate Americans. Now we send them to Bermuda to lounge on the beach and go into the restaurant business.
