North Korea Vows “Thousands-Fold Revenge” Against USA Sanctions

This weekend, the United Nations Security Council issued enormous economic sanctions against North Korea over the missile tests they’ve been conducting.

The sanctions against the communist nation include a ban on coal and other exports worth more than $1 billion — a huge bite in its total exports, valued at $3 billion last year.

North Korea has now issued an ominous response.

From Fox News:

North Korea vowed Monday to strike the U.S. with “thousands-fold” revenge after the United Nations imposed new sanctions in response to a recent intercontinental ballistic missile launch from the rogue regime.

 

The dictatorship’s official KCNA news agency described the recent sanctions as “crimes” that were a “violent violation of our sovereignty” and a “heinous plot to isolate and stifle” the communist country.

 

North Korea, which consistently threatens to send “gift packages” to the U.S., vowed to take “righteous actions” that would make America pay “thousands of times.”

 

The fiery response from the nation came in the face of the sanctions and as Secretary of State Rex Tillerson demanded the rogue nation halt its missile tests so the U.S. and North Korea could start negotiations.

As I mentioned earlier this morning, McMaster has already said that war is on the table, and seemed to imply that North Korean missiles may now have the capability to reach American soil.

These are frightening times, folks.
