Geraldo just said that this was disrespect to Obama. It's too obvious that the world thinks Obama is really a wimp.

Sometimes a blind squirrel finds a nut. Obama is an embarrassment. Socially, politically and militarily. The Russians are probably laughing their asses off about his willingness to rollover on nuclear superiority.

“North Korea ‘has launched rocket’”
SNIPPET: “The US State Department and South Korea’s presidential office also confirmed a launch.

Japan did not try to intercept it, as it had indicated that it would if its territory was threatened, it said in a statement.

The US called the launch “provocative” and the Japanese government described it as “regrettable”.”

This seems to be the most traffic thread. Do you have any local news? Or a local feed?

Believe this, World War III is NOT going to start over this missile launch.

Nope. Not this launch, but I wouldn't rule out NK as the flash point.

Catherine Herredge on FNC said the timing was deliberate to coincide with the boy wonder being overseas.

SecDef Gates said last week, we are not prepared to respond militarily to the NK launch. It was already decided by Obama and announced, we would not contest the issue.

Remember when BBC covered an Earthquake in India the day Saddam’s statue came down?

That’s is the US media now. They will cover whatever suits them.
