No. The NORKs rescinded the Armistice of 1953 a few weeks ago, so the war is on again (UN Police Action). No shots fired yet by either side, but NORK is setting new standards for provocation. They seem ready for war and that we will accept pretty heavy provocation before we react. Cutting our missile defense programs and aircraft programs is a fundamental mistake in place of prioritizing social programs higher. H. Clinton a few months ago at a planned parenthood meeting where she spoke stated that the major foreign policy priority of the US State Dept was ‘reproductive issues’ internationally. Maybe the NORKS believe her. Remember when the US Amb. to Iraq, April Glaspie suggested to Saddam Hussein that the US had little interest in what happened to Kuwait?

To other Freepers.
I know I can look up the air forces of NK, and one of my pals was stationed there, at Osan AFB, and another one.But I would like to get, maybe, an up to date opinion of their current air force structure.
Any help here?

Look for the NK's to test fire that TD-2 fairly soon. I'd guess they'll be real ... about it and fire it as close to Hawaii as they dare. Maybe even directly at it.

Question is, will obama authorize the release of an interceptor or two from Alaska or California, if they have a shot? Or will he authorize the Navy to cut loose a couple of SM-3s?

Oh, that's right, he's cutting the number of interceptors in Alaska and California. Guess he won't be authorizing any launches unless the inbound is headed for DC and his backside. Hope the US Navy is up to it with their silver bullets...
