Unfortunately, Bush and Obama have both contributed to the weakening of our hand when it comes to dealing with China. We are better off working within the UN rules on this because of the input that China has - we may be able to tell from a Chinese vote abstention that they might want the problem taken care of, but that they do not want to be the ones to do it.
Prior administrations caved to NK when they restarted tests or whatever - they have learned to do something dramatic every so often to get something they want. We need to stop providing an incentive and start providing penalties.
