A day after North Korea and Kim Jong Un taunted geopolitical security with a sixth nuclear test, Nikki Haley uttered the words “enough is enough” at the United Nations Security Council emergency meeting to discuss steps in dealing with the North Korean dictator.
Kim Jong Un is “begging for war” as demonstrated by his “abusive use of missiles.”
Former South Carolina governor and current United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley spoke before the Security Council in a straightforward way, conveying Kim Jong Un is “begging for war” as demonstrated by his “abusive use of missiles.”
In an August 29, 2017 Twitter post, Haley eluded to the need to hold a meeting pertaining to the chronic threats posed by North Korea’s leader:

After North Korea detonated yet another nuclear device early yesterday, Haley took to Twitter to express the need for a prompt meeting among allies:
We along w/Japan, France, the UK and S.Korea have called for an emergency Security Council meeting on N.Korea in the open tomorrow at 10am

Today was that meeting, an emergent one at that. The hydrogen bomb test yesterday, and all its destructive capability, is believed to be engineered for suitable fitting in an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) with extraordinary range.
Describing yesterday’s detonation by the North Korean government, South Korea’s media entity YongHap News Agency claimed that the “sixth nuclear test was estimated to have a yield of up to 100 kilotons, about four to five times stronger than the nuclear bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, in 1945, the chief of the parliament’s defense committee said Sunday.”
The chronic threats of obliteration from North Korea, and how the United Nations consistently exuded efforts in diplomacy, has yielded zero dividends, “despite the best of intentions,” Haley chronicled.
“The time for half measures in the security council is over. The time has come to exhaust all of our diplomatic means before it is too late. We must now adopt the strongest possible measures. Kim Jong Un’s action cannot be seen as defensive,” Haley said unequivocally.
President Donald Trump met with military advisers yesterday and, via Twitter, exclaimed:
The United States is considering, in addition to other options, stopping all trade with any country doing business with North Korea.

Now, we wait for conclusive attributes generated by UN Security Council alliances.
