#1 "the missile exploded in mid-air within 1.5 km of the launch site....

The problem was most likely due to difficulties with the missile's boosters"

That's what we want you to believe - Halliburton Missile Defense Division. :-D

#2 Now let us break up North Korea's program to wage nuclear war against the US.

Airstrikes.

#3 Nah, it just overheated. Try poking a few holes in the skin like a potato before launch next time. Helps cool it down.

#4 Technically, its not necessary to have a nuclear detonation in order to spread radioactive compounds/materials over a large area. In any case, North Korea = Radical Iran = Terror groups > have an interest in inducing Western withdrawal, containment and isolationism from target regions. And like the terror shellings of northern Israel, concessions and buffer zones is no guaranty of current andor future peace, only of retrenchments, reorganz and new attacks. Israel's withdrawals have only begat bigger enemy formations + bigger enemy rockets-shells launched from longer distances, and terror -centric elements becoming a substantive, de facto part of allegedly moderate or neutral local Govts. NORTH KOREA > until US-Western INTEL can verify the nature of Kimmie's rants, NORTH KOREA SHOULD BETREATED AS A EXPENDABLE DIVERSIONARY "HOLDING FRONT" AGZ USA, JAPAN, and SOKORS, vv Chicoms positioning of milfors ala TAIWAN, VIETNAM, NORTHERN PHILIPPINES, and WESTPAC. China has enuff manpower for both, but not enuff WAR-WINNING LEVELS OF MILTECH/ECON yet in comparison wid tech/econ-superior USA + JAPAN + SOKORS. Against the nations of SE Asia, China has a better chance of near-term victory or diplom concession Once the smaller tech-par or tech-inferior Western democracies or neutrals are gone, China can refocii all her might against North Asia + USA proper. FOR NOW, OR UNTIL YEAR 2015-2020, THE NAME OF THE GAME IS TO AVOID MUTUALLY DESTRUCTIVE ALL-OUT NUCLEAR WAR, PC DESTABILIZE SECTARIANIZE and FACTIONALIZE, AND TO USE AMERICA'S AND WEST'S OWN MILPOL ESTABLISHMENTS INSTITUTIONS, AND VALUES AGAINST THEMSELVES, TO USE DEMOCRACY FOR ANTI-DEMOCRACY.

#5 Hi Joe, the best way to humiliate the NORKS is to simply ignore them, they've been screaming "LOOK AT ME" for decades now, with no results but laughter.

We need to keep it up, humiliation is a powerful weapon in the Asian world, continue to embarrass the shit out of them, it hurts them way down deep inside.

#6 Nice tactics in an office or school environment, but it won't work when the loudmouth you are trying to deal with wants to launch nukes against you and you allies.

Why wait?

I don't wanna find out two years down the road that "damn, ignoring them didn't work" while their first loaded missile is about to hit us or the Japs.

At least wreck their rocket launch pads, and keep them wrecked.

#7 I don't mean "Ignore" as to turn your backs, I mean "Ignore" as to be sure that their attention getting tactics are thrown into the bright light of day, as well as any and all humiliating failures trumpeted around the world with all facts stated with blindingly briliant attention.

In short, "Ignore" as in belittle any attempt to draw favorable attention through their lies and propaganda, example, their "Successful" missle launch, trumpeted around the world with all their lies about flight times and accuracy disproven with facts.
Exactly what is happening right now, a real blow to be called "LIAR" and then another huge blow to then prove it making sure that it's glaringly obvious that the lies were caught.
That hurts Asians more than you know, to lose "Face" can be deadly (To them)
