"The second is a major scare from North Korea. There may be a missile test (perhaps another over Japan), or a nasty incident at the DMZ (with GI casualties), or even a detectable underground nuclear explosion, I should think before next Friday. I would not be surprised to learn, eventually, that the regime of Kim Il-Jong was actually paid by Saddam in cold hard currency to perform such a stunt -- for it has a long track record of doing anything for cash. Those who think the present wild North Korean bellicosity is unconnected to developments in Iraq will be proved naÃ¯ve."

#5 John, interesting. I thought of that prediction of David Warren's,too, first thing when I heard this news.
It sounds like it kinda wasn't a "success," though, didn't it?

#6 Let them lob a few in the water for Sammy. Their neighbors need a wake-up call anyway. My guess is that North Korea will quiet down a bit after Iraq is under occupatation and Sammy gets his due. Until then, let them waste all the missiles they want.

Kim Il-Jong obviously has a death wish. Right now, it's anybody's guess who is going to grant it.
