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.

That is very strange. Whatever happened to all warfare is based on deception. If I was in charge and we had decided to not intercept a missile firing, the last thing I would do is announce that fact. Shear stupidity. After the Norkies heard that statement, I bet one of their generals suggested capitalizing on this opportunity (more precisely described as a vulnerability).
