This is the part where the U.S. sends its condolences for the "apparent" misfire of the weapon. Let the Koreans, Russians, and Chinese try and figure out if we had anything to do with it.

I've been wondering the same thing. It sounds quite plausible that we might have contributed to it's misfire.

Yep...a real embarassement for the N. Koreans that their main event, the long range ballistic missile, failed shortly after launch in mid-air. Funny and so coincidental how just that one failed, huh? The one we were watching for. hehehe

I am sure there is a lot of "chatter" going on between N. Korea, China, Iran, and even Moscow.

I have seen some of our laser weapons and if we fired thatbat the missle there is almost no way to tell. The laser is invisible.

Not. at. all. The only truly appropriate behavior is to "leak" a story to - let's see, I've got it! - The New York Times purporting that a secret South Korean/U.S. agent highly placed in the TD-2 development program deliberately sabotaged the launch in order to embarrass Kim Jong Il and make him personally appear to be a laughingstock in the eyes of the world. That ought to set their program back at least 10 years. A nice touch would be to add that George Bush, Don Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney were ROTFLTAO.
