Speaking at an emergency meeting of the U.N. security council, Ambassador Nikki Haley issued a warning to the North Korean regime – You “will be utterly destroyed.”
Haley was responding to the rogue nation’s recent launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile that many experts believe could reach anywhere in the United States.
She addressed ‘Rocket Man’ Kim Jong Un directly.
“The dictator of North Korea made a decision yesterday that brings us closer to war, not farther from it,” Haley said. “We have never sought war with North Korea and still today we do not seek it.”

Haley then delivered this statement that, if Dear Leader wasn’t completely delusional, would send chills down his spine.
If North Korea’s actions lead to war, “make no mistake the North Korean regime will be utterly destroyed.”
US Amb. to UN Nikki Haley asked all nations to cut ties with North Korea, severing diplomatic relations and limiting “military, scientific, technical, or commercial operations.” She added “And if war comes, make no mistake, the North Korean regime will be utterly destroyed.”

Kim personally ordered the test launch of the intercontinental ballistic missile, declaring in a signed statement, “Test launch is approved. Taking place at the daybreak of Nov. 29! Fire with courage for the party and country!”
In April, Haley warned of U.S. military intervention should North Korea continue running missile tests.
“Today” show host Savannah Guthrie asked, “Is a preemptive strike against North Korea really being considered?”
“We are not going to do anything unless he gives us reason to do something,” Haley responded. “If you see him attack a military base, if you see some sort of intercontinental ballistic missile, then obviously we’re going to do that.”

Haley quantified that statement by adding President Trump would ‘step in’ and make that decision.
Do you think the President will order military action in response to North Korea? Will they be ‘utterly destroyed’ if that happens? Share your thoughts below!
