Bush Says Military Force Now an Option on North Korea
'President Bush explicitly raised yesterday for the first time the possibility of using military force against North Korea, calling it "our last choice" if diplomatic moves fail to halt Pyongyang's nuclear-weapons program. Speaking of efforts to prevent North Korea from building a nuclear arsenal, Bush said, "If they don't work diplomatically, they'll have to work militarily."'

Given that American 'diplomacy' towards North Korea is not any kind of diplomacy at all except threats and ultimatums, this reinforces the prospect that the US intends to deal with the regime by means of a military strike, probably next after Iraq.
