No matter it failed, North Korean has to be punished. Or has it?

Sung-Yoon Lee, lecturer in International Politics at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts, writes on the New York Times calling for more severe bans on North Korea following its attempt, however unsuccessful, to launch a rocket.

Should the USA launch a ban on North Korea? The political system there is very different from those we enjoy and praise here in the West, that's for sure. But is it really down to us to interfere with the politics of other countries? And should we regard an attempt to launch a rocket as a challenge even when it fails?
