5:00 p.m. Monday (9/8) Eastern Time
It is now 6:00 a.m. Tuesday, September 9, 2003 in Pyongyang, North Korea. Under rainy skies and with a current temperature of 70 degrees F, 95% humidity, slight breeze, with expected thunderstorms today in Pyongyang. Many FReepers and others are taking close note of today. Sunrise will occur in 12 minutes. And then, within a few hours, something rather noteworthy, historic and perhaps stunning is expected in the capital of the D.P.R.K. (North Korea).
SBS-TV (S. Korea) today has obtained photographs of a new and provocative 15.5 meter-tall Nodong version missile, capable of attacking the United States military forces in Japan, Okinawa and Guam and with a range of over 3000 kilometers, and now, along with others in place at nearly 200 locations in North Korea, many aimed at Japanese cities and American forces in Japan (37,000 personnel).
It is also reported that before the day is out, North Korea may launch a solid rocket in missile testing, to herald it's founding anniversary. The US, Japan and South Korea are watching closely.
Photos (above) are of the No-dong missile before and after being loaded on mobile launcher transport (wheeled vehicle).
It is expected that within a few hours, in the morning hours in Pyongyang, the new No-dong long-range missile will be rolled through Kim Il-Sung square for the first time, at a massive North Korean military parade (the largest in 10 years) on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of the founding of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea.
Delighted dictator Kim Jong-il is expected to salute from the dais.

I'd bet good money we can hit North Korean targets better than North Korea can hit American targets...

Another reason we need to keep them from ever going nuclear-IRAN also--actually the latter threatens our oil supply more

Remember back in 1998, when NKorea tested it's first ICBM, and duped Clinton by telling him that NKorea had decided to get into the satellite business?

"duped Clinton"
I'm not sure that's quite the description... Billy Jeff was AT MOST willfully blind, if not accessory to the crime.

Only thing is, official USA and foreign sigint, as well as amateur radio enthusiasts around the world who follow satellites, confirmed their lies, as no one could find the damn thing on the air in 1998 after lift off. Reason: It had already fallen into the sea after transversing Japan. (Kwangmyungsung missile). So much for suborbital and orbital satellites for 'peaceful'
purposes. Nope, this is all for one larger, grand purpose. International nuclear blackmail, thanks to deceived previous administrations and a powerless international community.

The North Koreans may have a nuclear missile but they have a definite marketing problem with the "No-Dong" missile. It just ain't manly enough.

What an opportunity for a decapitation strike. L'il Kim *and* the senior military, *and* their new nuke missile - poof! We could even blame the resulting explosion on the NK warhead. Those things are tricky to build, y'know.
