Grace Schwall- A Cuban Missile Crisis in Slow Motion

Over the past weeks the expansion and advancement of North Korea's nuclear and missile programs has been brought to the nation's attention. The US is working with China to keep the situation under control. This past week a North Koream missile launch test failed. A nuclear test has yet to be performed. The US plans to strengthen their stance against North Korea.

This article was written by David Sanger and William Broad from the New York Times to update the nation on the situation in North Korea. I think it's a bad idea for the US to use any unnecessary violence against North Korea. This situation is like the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Cold War of the 1960s because of the nuclear standoff.
