Another prelude to their eventual nuclear test. This is like watching a much-hyped prize fight. Endless preludes before the main event.

Well, if it's a prize fight Mini-Me wants I hope he doesn't mind being turned into the equivalent of a human pretzel...

What on earth do they think they're proving by managing to hit the water with Scuds? Even the Rodong - known in the South as the Nodong (pause for obligatory cheap humor but it's true) is old technology and neither is suitable as a delivery platform for nuclear weapons.
If they want to antagonize the Japanese this is the way to do it. I really wouldn't recommend that.
To: TigerLikesRooster
at least its not pay per view.

What will we do this time? Say it is "unhelpful?" I understand there are no easy or "safe" ways to deal harshly with them (as Seoul is so close), still it is exasperating.

It will start not with direct military assault on N. Korea, but with financially hitting S. Korea and China if they do not cooperate.
There is a provision in Patriot Act which punish entities doing business with N. Korea. It could apply to S. Korea and China. Their big corporations could lose access to international finance. This will completely cut off N. Korea's economic pipeline from outside. If this does not produce desired outcome in timely manner, and N. Korea goes ahead with nuclear test, U.S., China, and Japan will do something. There won't be massive U.S. ground assault into N. Korea, but plenty of missiles and bombs will fly. Chinese ground troop movement is a possibility. As for S. Korean ground troops moving north, we can't tell at this time. Roh could fight this move. On the other hand, he may not want to be the president who allowed China to take over N. Korea.

On the other hand, he may not want to be the president who allowed China to take over N. Korea. Why not? It improves his security. He's protecting his country.

Planning fireworks to celebrate 9/11?

Because S. Koreans will accuse Roh of selling out to China.

On Friday, the US showed the world we have the technology to hit a missile with a missile.
North Korea wants to show the world they have the technology to hit the Pacific Ocean with a missile.

As I have said and guessed a number of times here on FR, it would not be August 22nd (as some had theorized with the Iran President 'Tom' and the prophet down the well thing), however I believe it will be September 11th, 2006 for obvious PR and anti-USA reasons. Kim Jong il will most likely choose this day--as he did July 4th, 2006/Shuttle Launch, to wipe it in the face of the United States and perform nuke psy war for max effect. Problem is, he will get the attention, but not the kind he really seeks, IMHO.

My back prediction date is September 14th late evening, or the previous day, Korean Time--timed about the time Roh arrives at Andrews AB, or commences his South Lawn address.

ignoring the ugly little midget is far and away the best way to drive him nuts.
That, and really advertising every Star Wars success, as we show NK that we can and will protect our shores.
The SK, Japanese and Chinese are the ones who really need to keep an eye on NK. Those missiles have a way of ending up in strange places.
Sort of like the Europeans not seeming to worry much about Iran, when they are a whole lot closer to that crazy short midget than we are.
What is it with these crazed midgets? And I don't mean to insult sane midgets -

LOL! Well, put that way...

Iran's tyrants are well aware the stall game Saddam played through the UN will not function this time around. Could it be Iran and the other cohorts in the Axis of Evil have already planned numerous diversionary attacks around the globe including North Korea as well as Venezuela - when their vicious anti-Western comrades in Iran & Syria are finally confronted?
Conservative South Koreans are America's allies.
Protesters hold a large South Korean flag at an anti-North Korea, anti-President Roh Moo-hyun and pro-U.S. rally in Seoul, September 2nd, 2006. Protesters from various conservative civic groups demanded that South Korean government stop asking for transfer of wartime command of South Korean troops from the U.S. to South Korea.

Satellite image from DigitalGlobe collected on June 29th, 2006 shows No Dong, North Korea, the area where a Taepodong missile facility is located. North Korea may be preparing for another missile test, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported on Sunday, but a government official in Seoul discounted the report. REUTERS/DigitalGlobe
