North Korea has launched their big rocket. The satellite is now successfully in orbit at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

Good. Now send a cruise missile and blow up the launch pad.
From the direction of China.
Then, pass the popcorn.

The Regime has this all under control. I guess that we can all stick our heads in the sand since these dopes couldn’t get their rocket to work. No threat here at all, and the fact that the ChiComs and Iranians have their fingerprints all over this is just a coincidence too.

"The glorious rocket built by Kim Jong Un himself, was a success until American Imperialists and their allies shot the beautiful rocket from the skies over the North Korean Ocean. In other news...choco rations have been raised to 25 grams..."

They don't have the technology to tell the starving masses a damn thing.
They'll get their news from Seoul.
