It will be interesting to see how the outgoing administration handles this. No tweet yet from the"donald", but I'm sure he'll have something to say. Its about time we finally reacted properly to provocation.

it's already a test for Trump - these countries don't want to be accused of cheap shooting Trump - hence these early shots ....

expect MUCH more from North Korea & China ....
