Kerry to North Korea: Don't test missile By BRADLEY KLAPPER | Associated Press – 1 hr 18 mins ago
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry delivered a stark warning to North Korea on Friday not to test-fire a mid-range missile, while rejecting a new U.S. intelligence report suggesting significant progress in the communist regime's nuclear weapons program.
Kicking off four days of talks in an East Asia beset by increasing North Korean threats, Kerry told reporters in Seoul that Pyongyang and its enigmatic young leader would only increase their isolation if they launched the missile that American officials believe has a range of some 2,500 miles — or enough to reach the U.S. territory of Guam.
"If Kim Jong Un decides to launch a missile, whether it's across the Sea of Japan or some other direction, he will be choosing willfully to ignore the entire international community," Kerry told reporters. "And it will be a provocation and unwanted act that will raise people's temperatures."
Kerry said the test would be a "huge mistake" for Kim.

What a pathetic statement! North Korea already knows all that you incredible idiot!
Good going Obama...Just what the country needs in time of crisis: A communist traitor negotiating for us. What’s he going to do, offer to push the button?
Re your possibility that this whole thing is choreographed to give the Forger in the WH an opportunity to shine as he gets Nork to stand down... (understanding that China would have to be on board and giving orders to Kimmie.)
A couple years ago I would have thought you were nuts, but frankly when Hollywood came out with a movie that made Nork the big danger and I think there was another one that elevated the previously unrespected Norks to major danger, I have to say it’s a genuine possibility.
I don’t credit Hollywood with much intelligence or sense about what’s really going on in the world so I don’t believe they perceived the danger earlier than most or even took it seriously as smarter people have done.
I have to believe that there was some other reason that they focused on Nork more than a year or two ago. It takes a while to actually crank a movie out.
I find it easy to agree as you speculate they are setting up the Forger as hero and then pimp total nuclear disarmament much as they have used Newtown to pimp gun control.
.... Of course the way it went down on film was highly improbable but it made for a fun movie. Well ... improbable .... unless the prez sent them a gold engraved invitation, laid down a red carpet for 'em and told the military to stand down.
.... In any case ..... GO WOLVERINES!!!
It is obvious that the moslem brotherhood has now Egyptian embassies here and that they could don North Korean uniforms, so to speak. So basically duel islamist citizens on US soil are already here ready to smuggle nukes.
North Korea can blackmail us through them.
North Korea can detonate smuggled NK weapons through their missions.
This is the issue.
And now China is saber rattling too.
America is attacked from inside and outside as we speak, courtesy of globalistas and Ben Gahzi agreement with muslim brotherhood proxy.
Meanwhile they talk of US unilateral nuclear disarmament, UN gun treaties and Assault Weapons ban.
Any one who cannot see the dangerous connecting dots is either a traitor or a useful idiot.
NK is hosting a marathon in a couple of days. With Taiwan athletes there, I don’t think NK would be foolish enough to start crap ..at least not till they are gone. Unless he uses them to protect his country from retaliation.
This, from our Secretary of State. Oh noes, "people's temperatures" will raise. The horror. The horror.
I'm pretty much done with this nation: a muslim communist as president; a traitorous secretary of state, and an appeasenik DOD secretary. Not to mention a wimpy Republican leader and Congress.
While I'll continue to post, I am making arrangements.
“We’re not testing, Mr. Kerry! This is rive raunch!”
