I think the powers that be have said time's up re North Korea. I think US/South Korea and China realise the current status quo cannot continue especially in light of NK's claim to restart their mothballed nuclear plant in the very near future. It looks increasing like the present situation to some extent has been secretly manipulated to get NK to the point it is at now with a view to some major confrontation in order to force NK's hand.

As unpalatable as it sounds I think the world is tired of trying to negotiate with this barmy regime and now realises a different approach is required.

I only hope whetever transpires in the next few months is short and sharp and does not cause to much suffering to innocent people. but knowing it is far harder to stop a conflict once it has begun I fear the worst.....!!!!
