North Korea Missile Warhead Found in Alaska’


The Korea Times
March 04, 2003

By Ryu Jin
Staff Reporter

The warhead of a long-range missile test-fired by North Korea was found in the U.S. state of Alaska, a report to the National Assembly revealed yesterday.

``According to a U.S. document, the last piece of a missile warhead fired by North Korea was found in Alaska,’’ former Japanese foreign minister Taro Nakayama was quoted as saying in the report. ``Washington, as well as Tokyo, has so far underrated Pyongyang’s missile capabilities.’’

The report was the culmination of monthlong activities of the Assembly’s overseas delegation to five countries over the North Korean nuclear crisis. The Assembly dispatched groups of lawmakers to the United States, Japan, China, Russia and European Union last month to collect information and opinions on the international issue.

The team sent to Japan, headed by Rep. Kim Hak-won of the United Liberal Democrats, reported, ``Nakayama said Washington has come to put more emphasis on trilateral cooperation between South Korea, Japan and the United States since it recognized that the three countries are within the range of North Korean missiles.’’

According to the group dispatched to the U.S., American politicians had a wide range of opinions over the resolution of the nuclear issue, from ``a peaceful resolution’’ to ``military response.’’

Doves, such as Rep. Edward J. Markey, a Massachusetts Democrat and co-chairman of the Bipartisan Task Force on Nonproliferation, called for a peaceful settlement of the current confrontation, by offering food, energy and other humanitarian aid to the poverty-stricken country, while urging the North to give up its nuclear ambitions.

Rep. Markey also said the North should return to the nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty and the U.S. should make a nonaggression pact with the communist North.

Hardliners, however, warned that the North’s possession of nuclear weapons will instigate a nuclear race in the region, provoking Japan to also acquire nuclear weapons. Rep. Mark Steven Kirk, an Illinois Republican, said the U.S. might have to bomb the Yongbyon nuclear complex should the North try to export its nuclear material to other countries.

Over the controversy concerning the withdrawal of U.S. forces stationed here, most American legislators that the parliamentary delegation met said U.S. troops should stay on the peninsula as long as the Korean people want, the report said.

The ugliest warhead in Pyongyang is/was on the pencil neck of Kim. Maybe it just floated off his neck and drifted our way and ran out of hot air over Alaska. A little work should turn that Charley Brown shaped head into a unique bowling ball.

One freeper on a thread about the Korean missile tests had hinted at something like this.

Said those reports were incomplete and that a missile may have gone further than was being reported.

If that's the case, we ought to show the NKs what a REAL ICBM does, and then repeat the results, oh, 50-100 times.

"IF" this is true, folk have been saying this for a long time.

Spoke to rep Markey's office. This is crap I knew it just wanted to confirm. This was from a detected missile test years ago which the 3 rd stage fell just within 1,000 miles off the southern coast of Alaska.There is a post which links to the incident. Perhaps a piece of that missle washed up on the shore. On another Korean note, I was listening to WLS in Chicago this morning, and ironicly they had the other congressman in this story(Mark Kirk)on talking about the incident with the Mig 29s. I was not aware of this but he said that the United States feeds every child under the age of 15 in North Korea. That's 7,000,000 children (which seems like a low number). I wonder who's getting this food? The DPRK Army maybe?
