Poll of the Day > North Korea Sanctions.

(+) Yeah! (+)

The story so far:

Russia: Crimea wants to come back to us. Let's take them back.
USA: Unacceptable! Let's put sanctions on Russia.
Russia: OK, maybe if we play nice USA will lift the sanctions eventually.
USA: Wow! These sanctions are an amazing political tool!
North Korea: Let's test some missiles.
USA: We are putting sanctions on you. North Korea!
North Korea: WTF! We'll # nuke you into the # stone age!
USA: Oops...

Russia is still occupying Crimea so I'm not sure what your point is.

Crimea voted to come back to Russia - so that's the point.

What good are sanctions going to do against a rogue nation with which we have no trade or travel to in the first place?

"The referendum was held directly after a Russian military takeover of Crimea.[3][4] Because of this, the referendum's legitimacy has been heavily disputed by the international community.[5]"

So much for that point you were trying to make.

Also, the UN voted unanimously to sanction N. Korea.

Your points are severely lacking in critical thinking and are clearly rooted in an agenda to make America look like world bullies.

oops?

because we are worried about NK? because they werent making threats long before this? because they arent a shithole of a country in desperate need of liberation?

seriously, are you liberals really so far gone that youll side with fucking NORTH KOREA so long as its against trump?

Putin took 99% of the Chechen vote, but I'm sure there was nothing fishy going on there or Crimea.

So then show us all what part of the article helps make your point?
Also, Duck-I-Says makes the same point above that I made.

You're reaching, TC, and you have egg on your face.

You mean I'm no pretty no more?
