North Korea's missile launchers on the move, indicating possible new provocation

North Korea has begun moving its mid-range missile launchers, possibly indicating a looming test as tensions are already boiling on the peninsula, U.S. officials told Fox News.

Earlier Thursday, South Korea said North Korea moved a missile with "considerable range" to its east coast after an unnamed spokesman for the North Korean army warned the U.S. Wednesday that its military has been cleared to wage an attack using "smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear" weapons.

South Korean Defense Minister Kim Kwan-jin dismissed reports in the Japanese and South Korean media that the missile could be a KN-08, which is believed to be a long-range missile that if operable could hit the United States.

Kim told lawmakers at a hearing that the missile's range is considerable but not far enough to hit the U.S. mainland. He said he did not know the reasons behind the missile movement, saying it "could be for testing or drills."

B2’s are based at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri. What is flying out of FL must be support.

Just read the Pentagon turned on the missile shield they had moved to the area. I wonder if they were putting assets in the air to test it.

Are these the delivery systems for their chemical weapons?

Valerie Jarret, as always. Baraq is just the "face" of the regime.

Yep, it’s hard to imagine this day and age of social media, keeping secrets is going to be very hard to do.

The last time somebody important came from Missouri to the vicinity of China or Korea the next thing to happen was the total dissolution of Manchu China as the Republic of China replaced it.

That was Sun Yat San ~ he was literally called from a conference in St. Lous to go to China to be the interim President. The old regime simultaneously lost the mandate of heaven.

Doesn't mean much to us, but those ol'boys are still into PORTENTS and SIGNS. They read them like some here do polls.

So Obama launched the B2s to near China and over Korea and that's a portent sufficient for the Chicoms to send a hunk off their ground army up on the Yalu.

Un's Confucian advisors (the military is still operated along the lines of the ancient yangban system) are probably jumping out of their skins over that fly by.

If that's the portent meaning Un's regime has lost the mandate of heaven, then they'll be wanting to escape to China. If the Chicoms hear that sort of nonsense spreading into the Northern cities of China, they'll be wanting to prevent escapes from Korea.

Obama and his running dog lackeys know none of this ~ and probably haven't been listening to their East Asian analysts.

There is also an old maxim that every source an enemy has to collect information is an opportunity for you to deceive him.

If we know about it, they know about it long before we know about it.
