(LEAD) N. Korea fires new type of short-range missile off east coast: source

SEOUL, May 29 (Yonhap) -- North Korea has launched a short-range missile from its Musudan-ri rocket launch site on the country's east coast, a South Korean government official said Friday.

"What the North has launched this time appears to be different from what it had launched (previously)," the official said. "It is a new type of a land-to-air missile," the official said.

North Korea launched the missile, with an estimated range of 160 km, into the East Sea at around 6:12 p.m., according to the official.

The North has been firing a series of missiles since Monday, when it said it successfully conducted its second nuclear test.

It’s so funny how my dentist said to me last week “who are we to tell North Korea what to do”....I almost swallowed my new crown.

The local Chinese fishermen must have been tipped off yesterday something was going to happen over the Sea of Japan (aka the East Sea):

SEOUL, May 29 (Reuters) - Chinese fishing ships are leaving a disputed sea border that divides the two Koreas as tension mounts on the peninsula following this week's nuclear test by the North, South Korean media reported on Friday.

“Chinese fishing vessels have begun retreating from NLL (northern limit line) waters since yesterday. We are working to find out if this is based on North Korea's request,” Yonhap news agency quoted an unnamed South Korean army source as saying.

The NLL marks the maritime border between the two Koreas and has been the scene of naval clashes in the past.

Now how many more of these “test” launches are they going to get away with before someone does something? Which one of these are going to finally have a nuke on it?

The Dear Leader (the NorKor one) knows the United States is essentially harmless now with a befuddled narcissist in “charge,” so he feels emboldened. Why shouldn’t he?
