On Wednesday, North Korea launched another missile. This is the 15th launch this year, but this one appears different. North Korea claims this is new type of intercontinental ballistic missile with a "super-large heavy warhead" — which is capable of striking the US mainland.


America is on alert. New sanctions are being implemented and every effort seems to be in play to avoid conflict.


But can conflict be avoided? Has North Korea over-played its hand with a Trump administration that has already vowed ‘the situation will be handled.’


What is left to do and what can be done?


That’s where the experts from Cedarville University can help.
