Hopefully, there would be accident at booster stage or mid-flight. This is the time for MD to show its worth.
Alarming to read this.....looks like someone’s going to have to show KIM-UN where the line is before long....
One cheap drone could take this rocket out on the pad.
THE issue is Seoul. Seoul is the hostage as well as our dependants in-theater. Pull them out immediately and the world will believe we are serious.
We are now loading Guam up with another 15,000 dependants.
Who remembers how NK and the Chinese solved their satellite problems when Cliton was in charge?

This isn’t a game... does that 28-year-old know that?
I don’t expect this to go truly ‘hot’ but wouldn’t be surprised if Iran tests it’s first nuclear weapon just when things are at their trickiest in the Korean peninsular.
If the thing has a decent range why do they have to move it?
At the very least I would expect to see an invasion of South Korea.
Good movie about the Korean War.
71: Into The Fire
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/71:_Into_the_Fire
The film is based on a true story of a group of 71 undertrained and undergunned student-soldiers of South Korea during the Korean War, who were mostly killed on August 11, 1950, during the Battle of Pohang-dong. For 11 hours, they defended Pohang-dong girls middle school, a strategic point for safeguarding the Nakdong River, from an attack by overwhelming North Korean forces.
These 71 teenagers, most of whom had never shot a gun before, managed to hold out against the advancing North Korean army for 11 hours. Their heroic defense of the area was actually a turning point in the Korean War. 71: Into the Fire tells the story of these student-soldiers over the course of that fateful day.
Oh Jang-beom is forced into becoming the leader of the student-soldier unit, simply because he is one of only three of the students who has combat experience (his combat experience was ammunition running between stations - not actual fighting). The rest of the student-soldiers have not even fired a weapon - thats how little training these young men had. This lack of experience and training makes the story even more amazing and inspiring.
100,000 South Korean students volunteered to fight in the war. This film was made as a commemoration of their sacrifices and was released during the 60th anniversary of the Korean War.
