US condemns Pyongyang missile plan, warns against 'provocative' actions
AFP on January 2, 2017, 7:56 am

Washington (AFP) - The United States on Sunday sharply condemned a North Korean plan to test-fire an intercontinental ballistic missile and warned Pyongyang against "provocative actions."

The toughly worded US statement called on "all states" to show the North that any unlawful actions would have "consequences."

It was issued by the Pentagon at a sensitive time -- just weeks before President Barack Obama is due to hand power over to his successor, Donald Trump.

The statement came hours after Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, said his country was close to testing such a missile, which would be capable of reaching American shores.

I myself can almost see the NK leader doing something stupid and NK getting the dickens bombed out of it.

I hope I'm wrong, the people who would suffer most would be the slaves and prisoners of NK, which largely sounds like a nation that is a concentration camp.
