#2 Is anyone wondering of Kimmie-boy is going to survive during the next few months after such an embarassment?

I'm thinking some of his top guys may be thinking its time he 'retired'....

#3 and fire it wherever he wanted.


Not exactly. It still doesn't have trans-Pacific range, which limits NK targets to South Korea, Japan, Alaska and China.

#4 It is my understanding Kimmie didn't purchase the "siphon hose" option and had no way of standing down. From the moment they started fueling they were committed to launch or "EPA superfund" site.

#5 Wake up. Kimmy is the puppet. It serves his master, Red China for Kimmy to test ordinance. China is checking how our alert system works.
We will need to make changes.

I don't think Kimmy is a puppet of the PRC. The PRC consider him somewhere between a nuisance and a low level threat. However, the PRC, like the Skors doesn't want to see a mass exodus of Nkors into their territory. Thus they keep subsidizing the Nkor electrical system, the Nkor food-for-the-army system, the Nkor weapons procurement system, etc.

If the PRC weren't so horrible in their own right, I would feel some sorrow for them.

And the Nkor train replacement system.
