North Korea fires unidentified projectiles for second time in week
[IsraelTimes] Observers say launches are aimed at ramping up pressure on the United States to make diplomatic concessions.North Korea  ...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche...on Wednesday fired several unidentified projectiles off its east coast, South Korea’s military said, less than a week after the North launched two short-range ballistic missiles into the sea.
The projectiles appeared to be a different type to previous launches, minister Jeong Kyeong-doo said, according to South Korean news agency Yonhap. Japan's defence minister said any ballistic missile launch by North Korea would violate United Nations ...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense... resolutions, Japan's Kyodo news agency reported.
