(LEAD) N. Korea renews its vow to launch satellite

2015/09/18 20:53

(ATTN: UPDATES with more comments in paras 4-6, 9-11)

SEOUL, Sept. 18 (Yonhap) -- North Korea reiterated its resolve Friday to launch a satellite, calling it a sovereign right, in its latest show of defiance against growing international calls against the provocation.

"The more enemy forces will hamper our plan for space development, the more severe our counteraction will be," the North's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said in a dispatch.

North Korea said it is determined to exercise its right to launch a satellite into orbit, no matter what others say about its plan.

It did not specify a launch schedule, however.

The "evil-minded U.S. and South Korean conservative forces" are not empowered to criticize the North's rocket launch move, said the communist nation's mouthpiece.

"It is the unpardonable provocation against the DPRK to take issue with the space development for peaceful purposes, the legitimate right of a sovereign state recognized by international law," KCNA said. "It is our sovereign right to put into space the satellite built with our indigenous efforts and technology from A to Z."

The statement came hours after the United States vowed to do all it can to pressure North Korea to give up its nuclear program amid concern that Pyongyang could conduct a nuclear or missile test.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has also warned that North Korea will face "severe consequences" if it forges ahead with irresponsible provocations.

In an interview with KCNA earlier this week, the director of the North’s National Aerospace Development Administration strongly indicated that Pyongyang will continue long-rang rocket launches.

"The world will clearly see a series of satellites … soaring into the sky at the times and locations determined by the [ruling Workers’ party] central committee," he said. Many observers raise the possibility of a launch around the 70th founding anniversary of the Workers' Party of Korea on Oct. 10.

The outside world views Pyongyang's self-claimed space program as a cover for the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles.

The satellite launch, if made, could draw international condemnation and tougher sanctions by the U.N Security Council.

North Korea has been under U.N. sanctions for its missile and nuclear tests.

Is this like double-triple time-out bad-bad consequence, or like triple-super-bad-bad consequence?

If you wanted to really impress these guys...just say that you’ve invented some chemical that you can spray into the clouds above NK...that will make everyone into a trans person. Beam the message as far and wide as possible, and just let the VIPs figure out if the US is joking or serious.

The Clinton administration REPEATIDLY promised that there would be no Nuclear North Korea. MAD-MAD Halfbrite and WENDY SHERMAN negotiated for the US from the State Dept. THEY TOTALLY FAILED. Now the NORKs threaten everybody in the region.

The Obama administration REPEATIDLY promised that there would be no Nuclear Iran. Hilliary Clinton and John Kerry and WENDY SHERMAN negotiated for the US from the State Dept. THEY TOTALLY FAILED. Now the Iranians threaten everybody in the region.

(To be read with an Elmer Fudd voice) The NORKs are weely, weely afwaid of John Kerry's thweats...

Severe consequences probably means a treaty that will give them everything they want with whipped cream on top.

What kind of satellites are they talking about launching that will make the world “tremble with fear”? Do they realize that today, even ham radio operators have their own satellites? Is his calendar stuck on 1957?

I keep trying to imagine “severe consequences” promulgated by John Kerry but the Norks got to him a while ago as shown below calling him a “crossbreed with unclear blood”; in fact the whole first paragraph is a doozie & seems to hit the nail on the head. Just remember this is all propaganda from both sides - North Korea & The US

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/08/20/north-korea-ridicules-john-kerrys-hideous-lantern-jaw/

Here’s a brief video “Excellent Horse-Like Lady” at her job in the DPRK. I’m sure when she gets home she’ll be ordering Papa John’s Pizza Large 5 topping with a side of wings & a few 2 liters because she’s had a happy happy productive day as a factory work changing spools of thread.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5tkXgw2OMY

On the flip side there are those NORKS who have chosen to live in caves and scrounge for a living because they are not party members and live in a rural area so that for a small period of time in their life -with the children they have- they will try be together as a family, even if Mom & Dad have to go w/out & then eventually have to turn over their little children to other people’s care so they can escape the horrors of what it is like to live in North Korea.

here’s a link to a multitude of anything you might want
to see about the DPRK so you can get your fill:

http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/absolute-north-korea-documentaries-web-stuff-watch/

and last but not least happy happy school children playing
the guitar(a) showcasing how North Korea & it’s brutal regime makes slaves mockered small chidren-barely able-
yet, they perform

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSedE5sU3uc

You see it really isn’t about John Kerry and his lantern jaw nor face fillers like botox it’s what the NORKS
say about him to take the focus off of all of these
backroom dirty deals in the drug trade with the United States and the Chinese and the Chinese being the NORKS drug mules,

It’s about the fucking moral failure of a Sec’y of State
named John Kerry sprung from a privileged background and his high social standing that “forced” him into a life of politics because it is a noble profession to “serve others”.
You see, Hitlary Clinton couldn’t make the deals with the DPRK & that’s why she is no longer Sec’y of State.

As a politician & as a appointed gov’t. official John Kerry serves his Lord & Master Almighty Obama Sock Puppet and The Powers That Be.ecause he can make the deals to facilitate the Chinese import of not only their own manufactured illegal drugs but North Korea’s , too, into the United States under the Sec’y of State control and it’s bought cheap at US prices to be distributed to you and your beloved ones- your father, your mother, your children, cousins, sisters, brothers, aunts & uncles.

Here’s a little page from Aug 2014 and after you read this
you wil understand why the USA wants to keep up good relations with China. This is why our economy is floundering & almost 94million people not in the workforce.

It is about Evil Men who prey upon the weak for their own profit because they are greedy and want power and money.

He'll hack into their one TV and radio network and force everyone to listen to him drone on and on ad nauseum in his pompous, monotone voice about how he served in Viet Nam.

They'll be jamming ice picks in their ears in no time.

No, it will be a 24 hour a day radio broadcast of the best of John Effin' Kerry's speeches, beginning with "Did You Know I Served In Vietnam?", concluding with "Three Purple Hearts for Three Purple Scratches".

That ought to scare those little NorK pricks into behaving.
