The good news is that the Obama people still appear to be sticking to their guns — demanding complete and verifiable denuclearization as a precondition to all of the goodies. Not that that will ever happen, but I’m happy to see the sanctions tightened until we the palace economy collapses, just like the rest of the North Korean economy did back in ’94.
