Some one set us up the bomb. PyongYang, make your time!

[Question_Assumptions]

I took a quick look at yomiuri.co.jp, asahi-np.co.jp, and mainichi.co.jp as well as the Japan Times web sites and with my limited Japanese knowledge, none seem to be reporting anything about Yokohama (Yomiuri and Mainichi seemed to have reports about Americans near Baghdad -- with the Yomiuri talking about 10 kilometers). Nothing looked close on the Asahi site. No clues there.

I have a bad feeling about this.

Question: Is the U.S. Mainland or Iraq closer to North Korea? Anybody have an answer for this?
