According th the Japanese Defense Ministry North Korea may be planning another missile launch between July 4th and 8th this year. The missile, believed to be a Taepodong-2 has a range of 4,000 miles. This puts it about 500 miles short of Hawaii which is 4,500 miles away from the Korean Penninsula.
I personally still believe that this is just another round of sabre rattling by the North Korean goverment, however they have upped the ante too much to ignore. President Kim must have kimchi for brains. He is obviously very desperate, mildly insane, out of touch with reality, or a combination of all three.
This type of provocation is just too much to be ignored. Personally I think that we should shoot the missile down as soon as it is launched. We would be perfectly within our rights to do so.
I still think that he needs money and is trying to goad us into giving him financial aid, but it is just about time to spank his behind. I don’t know a whole lot about a whole lot of things, but you can take it from the military ring man, even though he talks loud he is basically harnless. It will be interesting to see what the new US Presidential Administration will do to handle this situation. Maybe they will take my advice.
