U.S. tells North Korea new missile launch would be "huge mistake"

Quote :

(Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry warned North Korea on Friday that it would be a "huge mistake" to test launch a medium-range missile and said the United States would never accept the reclusive country as a nuclear power.

Addressing reporters after talks with South Korea's president and leaders of the 28,000-strong U.S. military contingent in the country, Kerry also said it was up to China, North Korea's sole major ally, to "put some teeth" into efforts to press Pyongyang to abandon its nuclear ambitions.

Kerry, like other U.S. officials, played down an assessment from the Pentagon's intelligence agency that North Korea already had a nuclear missile capacity.

In Washington, White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters, "I want to be clear that North Korea has not demonstrated the capability to deploy a nuclear-armed missile."

I say blow em off the map

How will that do any of us any good ?

It wouldn't but can we just let him threaten us and the attack us? If he does not act on his threats in some fashion his people will not respect him. That means I don't think he is just shooting off his mouth.
