**rth Korea defied the world a week ago with a missile test and is suspected of orchestrating the stunning assassination a day later of supreme leader Kim Jong-Un´s half-brother in Malaysia, provocative acts that followed a nuclear test in September.

Under the Obama administration, Washington pursued a policy of "strategic patience" toward **rth Korea in hopes that sanctions would bring Pyongyang to heel and force it to abandon its nukes.
