>> congressman, that's all well and good, but in the past, as you well know, north korea has used this kind of threat to leverage some kind of economic benefit in the form of reduced sanctions, improved input from other foreign countries. do you think that's the strategy here? >> i don't want to take a gamble on what their strategy is going to be. we all know that if china was to cut the umbilical cord from north korea, there would be no threats. china ought to have a more responsible position, to bring some stability region. if it so happens this 29-year-old kid starts a war he cannot stop, there will be north koreans invading, running off to china. you know, this is nothing to be laughing about saying here they go again. the fact is that he does have the necessary weapons to bring destruction to a lot of south koreans.
