North Korea did 3rd nuclear test

Man, the dividends from President Obama's "rice for nonproliferation" initiative keep paying and paying...

North Korea is believed to have conducted a widely anticipated nuclear test, following an earthquake that monitoring agencies around the globe that appeared to be unnatural.
The South Korean Defense Ministry, which raised its military alert level after the quake, said it was trying to determine whether it was a test. Nuclear blasts can create tremors but they are distinct from those caused by natural earthquakes.

If confirmed as a nuclear test, this act would constitute a clear threat to international peace and security, and challenges efforts made to strengthen global nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation, in particular by ending nuclear testing.

When is the civilized countries of this world going to make an example of one of these idiot controlled nations? I just hope that some day the people of starving North Korea will catch, roast and EAT their fat little leader.
