A more practical tactic would be the imposition of economic sanctions by the United Nations -- but even if China, long friendly to the North, did not veto an embargo, Pyongyang might feel cornered and lash...

Doing herself and others a disservice, her own participation on the Peninsula Council is oxymoronic, with an emphasis on the moronic. Perhaps if Bowdren had really listened during Women's Studies 10b, instead of defensively gathering material for her Peninsula article, she would have learned something. Stephanie C. Bornstein...
