Hand wringing at the UN

Especially in the Security Council, over North Korea. But just like in the case of Iran’s enrichment of uranium for the past few years in defiance of every warning of that council…..nothing gets done.

They just keep meeting, and worrying.

After a three-hour emergency session Sunday, the United Nations Security Council failed to come to any agreement on how to deal with North Korea’s rocket launch over the weekend…

Officials believe the most that could happen would be a Security Council presidential statement condemning the launch and a possible attempt to reaffirm existing U.N. sanctions on Pyongyang. They do not expect new sanctions to be imposed.

There’s a hefty disincentive.
