Response to failure tests North Korea's new leader
By Jamie Crawford
When it comes to North Korea, nothing is ever clear. You can double down on that bet when it comes to trying to foresee what the catastrophic failure of its rocket launch means for the country's new ruler and his military.
North Korea experts say how Kim Jong Un reacts to this humiliating setback, however, could be an open window into the strength of his hold on leadership.
"The question is whether (the launch) is going to be consequential, and I think that remains to be seen," said Scott Snyder of the Council on Foreign Relations.
If history is any guide, North Korea is likely to follow up the rocket launch with a nuclear test, or some other sort of provocative act as a signal to the world of its strength and resolve. The question is whether the rocket failure causes the regime to change course.
"One thing that might be significant would be if, in fact, they decide to move in a different direction from a (nuclear test) based on this experience," Snyder said. But he added that in his view this is not a likely course for the North to take.
Still, if a nuclear test, North Korea's third, does follow in the coming weeks, much will be riding on its success or failure, and with it quite possibly the political fortunes of Kim.
"If the third nuclear test is a failure, then you are talking about essentially zero for two in terms of high-profile demonstrations of North Korea's might under Kim Jong Un's watch," John Park, a North Korea specialist at the Belfer Center at Harvard University, told CNN. "The stakes couldn't be higher."
North Korea's admission of the rocket's failure on state television stood in stark contrast to what was expected, and caught many analysts by surprise. The fact that the government officially announced the failure of the launch was a huge departure from its past patterns.
When attempts to put a satellite in orbit failed in 1998 and 2009, government media told the North Korean people that the launches were successful, and even that the satellites were sending signals to the "dear leader" from space.
Some have surmised the government simply had no choice but to acknowledge failure with the large presence of foreign journalists in the country to cover the launch. Several U.S. officials who spoke with CNN said the announcement also could have been an attempt to project the new leader's confidence, or even an effort to use the failure to cast blame on certain military officials, with the goal of getting rid of them and consolidating Kim's power base.
Whatever the motivation, those who follow the situation closely say there are likely to be senior figures in the military who are quite angry such a public statement was transmitted domestically and internationally.
Kim Jong Un's father, Kim Jong Il, had a tougher transition period when he rose to power, because his ascension to the leadership in 1994 was accompanied by a widespread famine. In comparison, analysts say, the rocket failure is unlikely to put the new leader in any sort of immediate jeopardy.
But the decision to allow such a large foreign media presence into the country to visit the launch site, even if the intent was to trumpet the centenary celebration the nation's founding father, raises questions among some regarding Kim Jong Un's managerial acumen.
"If you put on the glasses of evaluation of his management up to now," Park said, "this raises serious managerial questions in terms of the lead-up to this. ... Inviting international journalists to what is really a secret site and having that type of exposure is a little bizarre, I think."
And the United States seemed to relish the publicity associated with the launch. "Their efforts to draw attention to the program seem to have backfired in this case," a U.S. official told CNN after the launch.
But the Pentagon was quick to make clear the absence of any U.S. role in the rocket's failure.
"The United States military had absolutely no role whatsoever in bringing down the missile," Pentagon spokesman George Little said. "I'm unaware of any U.S. role whatsoever in bringing down the missile."
What specifically caused the rocket to fail just 81 seconds into its flight is nothing more than speculation at this point, but the program continues even though it faces some of the same growing pains the United States confronted in the early days of its space program.
"The U.S. had an extreme number of failures in the 1960s, while the Soviet juggernaut seemed to be flawless in its ability to put satellites and humans into space," said Bruce Klingner, a senior research fellow for Northeast Asia at the Heritage Foundation.
For Klingner, the parallels between the U.S. and North Korean programs are proof of the dangers of complacency when it comes to North Korea.
"It'll be a failed program until the moment it succeeds, and then I think we'll have a lot of people saying, 'Why wasn't I informed of this unforeseen missile threat to the United States,'" he said. "And it's been a long time coming."

NO EAT SH!T SH!T BAD VERY BAD FOR EAR AND TOE
NO EAT SHIT, SHIT BAD FOR HUMAN EAR AMEN
These guys are still thinner than three quarters of the American population.
IMPERIALIST YANKEE DOGS WILL EAT THE SHIT AND SUCK THE DICK OF THE BELOVED KIM.
This has been very enjoyable, it has everything, URINE, FECES AMEN !
“What specifically caused the rocket to fail just 81 seconds into its flight is nothing more than speculation at this point, but the program continues even though it faces some of the same growing pains the United States confronted in the early days of its space program”.
Be careful!! The new "Dear Leader" Kim Jong Un may well blame United States military microwave assets for the rocket malfunction :), after all there is no shortage of US arsenals and gadgets in the region.
Sayan.
Has anyone read One Second After?? Is it possible The N.Korean missed launch was a faked failure? I wonder if their icbm system works just fine. Do they just want us to think otherwise. Have the media been duped as well as the military and administration?
hmm still wonderin doooo just dnt knw wat d heck is wrong with n.korea
It is technologically possible to abort the mission in flight so it looks like a failure to an outside observer, but what is the point of doing so?
Success or failure, it is not a viable ballistic missile: anything which takes more than 10 hours of preparation before the launch on an open, above-the-ground launch pad is useless as a weapon: it can be taken out by a conventionally armed cruise missile like a tomahawk. S in this situation "concealing the fact of having ballistic missile technology" by simulated failure is pointless - they do not have technology, period.
Success, on the other hand, has more value, but for propaganda reasons (obviously), but also as a leverage in their international relationships.
Now, after this failure, NK standing is these 6-party talks in in a worse position: they will be forced to agree and give up more, and have fewer options in their own disposal.
Interestingly enough, there are three generals, but actually there more - a fourth left hand is an the left. It appears that there are identical golden watches on ALL FOUR left hands. Are there parts of military uniform?
*If you're happy and you know it clap your hands
CLAP CLAP
If you're happy and you know it clap your hands
CLAP CLAP
If you screwed up on the rocket if you screwed up on the rocket
If you screwed up on the rocket
BANG BANG!!!*
I wonder whether anybody saw a picture of Kin Chen In/Ir/Ul/Sul/Sen (whatever) together with his generals where they are NON clapping. I am serious: are they always clapping, or it in CNN tries to portray them as idiots.
Besides, does the photograph above has any relevance to the current event - rocket launch failure? After all there is nothing to clap about.
Hey, I really know what happened! Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Airmen shot the rocket down with a Nuclear Rubber Band Gun!
Film at 11!!!
Tell St. Peter at the Pearly Gate...You hate to make him wait...But you gotta have another cigarette.
The N Korean leaders all look like panda bears. They couldn't do anything wrong. But oh so comical.
kim nooooooo u did it all wrong. U have too put the mint in the soda bottle first and than close it, to see it fly like a rocket ya baby.
Has anyone read One Second After?? The N.Korean missed launch was a faked failure. Their icbm system works just fine. They just want us to think otherwise. The media have been duped. Haste military and administration?
Haircut – Fail!
Rocket Launch – Fail!
I wish I could applaud my failure.
WORLDS IS CHANGING...U.S.A. HAWAII NEARLY DESTROYED BY EARTHQUAKEN PSUNAMI. URNIATION UPON THAT SECTOR.
Sure. And you will wake up tomorrow and finally be 5 feet tall.
WITHOUT A HOMES YOUNHAVE NOTHING. HOW IS IT YOU HAVE MULTIPLE LAYERS FOR BANKRUPT AND DEFAULT MORTTAGE? WORLD IS OUT...AMERICA LOST KARMA, ITS WORDS MEANINGLESS. YOUR FAMOUZ AUTHOR SAYS THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH.
Yay, someone else who is not only insane, but has an internet connection too
Ug you want wompum to pay billz, sowwy uze mericans fall into see ands drownded. butter luk nextime. seez you in hell.
OK, now I can safely guess you are spewing out this verbal garbage based somewhere in Asia. You are a complete embarrassment to the Asian people who value and honor hard work and peace. You are the fecal matter of society.
AMERICANS LOST THEIR ECONOMIES BASED ON FECAL ASSUMPTIONS LIKE YIURS. WERE YOU IN URINATION ZONE AFTER WORKS? OR AT SORCERERS FOR NEIGHBOUR'S WIFE?
***STANDING OVATION***
A famous painter was once commissioned to make a painting depicting hunger...
He painted an anus with cobwebs.
Hunger deprives a body, but not your soul. When hungry, one does not waste precious energy on envy and other negative forces. Strength is garnered by hope that tomorrow will be better for those who you love.
Don't be falsely quoting "Amen" when your soul is so polluted with garbage that you are being forced fed by your "dear leaders" who eat your children's food.
To better understand your true enemy, look in the mirror.
THIS WAS AMERIKAN PAINTER' AFTR HAVING URINATED ON FINANCIAL SITUATION AND DEFICATED AT NEIGHBOUR BY AGAIN DECLARE BANKRUPCTY. AN ANUS IS OF NO USE IF ONE IS URINATING ONLY. WHETHER JFK OR NOW ECONOMY, DOM IS APPROACHING WEST IDEALS. IFF YOU EAT TOO MUCH YOU DEFACATE OO MUCH
@TOMG2
You are one sick psychotic person, your illusions are troubling.
Can't tell if trolling or just dumb.
CHEETAHS ARE THE REAL CAUSE OF WARMONGO THE CAT. ASIAN RESTRAUNTS LOVE SERVING AMERIKAN PIES AND SLAUGHTERING JUNE BUGS. DEMOCRACY IS THE WAY OF THE LIVING CULTURES OF FERNS AND BUBBLELICIOUS GUM. FINANCIALLY AND METPHORICALLY BANK SYSTEMS CENSORSHIP THE 99% OF NEANDERTHALS BUYING THE CURRENCY OF ONE COUNTRY THEN MUNIPULATING IT TO TURN INTO A BRIDGE TROLL.
AMERIKAN CNN DEFICATION SHOW WORLD THAT WESTERN WORLDS NOT MORE THATN PLACE WHERE PIPULOUS URINATES ON ONE AN OTHERS. WHILE LAWYERS GET RICH. DOG LIFE ON THAT SIDE OF OCEAN. KARMA WILL SOON URINATE ON U.S. URINE. DRINK APLENTY, AMEN.
So in theory, after we all eat and drink our organic by-products...
What will you people eat and drink?
QUESTION NOT OF EATING, BUT OF POORS SELF INDULGENCE BY URINATORS IN WEST. WESTS MONEY RUNNING OUT...POOR GETS POORER WITH LITTL HOPE EXCEPT FOR TO HAVE BEEN DEFACTED UPON BY RICH WESTERN MOGHULLS.
Profound words, Tom! You sure know what you're talking about!
TWO GIRLS ONE CUP IS THE WAY OF LIFE, AMEN.
It appears that this TOMG poster who persistently mutilates proper english grammar and lacks any coherence flow is:
1. Using an online translator, English not being his native tongue
2. Just harvested his own mushroom crop from his bathtub using fertilizer he much adores and is fascinated by
3. Has no light source over his keyboard
4. Swallowed "Caps Lock" button during a munchies binge
5. Types while driving and playing banjo
6. Is in denial over his secret fantasy love of economy-sized, pompous Kim Jong-Un
7. Testing CNN's forum filters
8. Parents went out and left basement door unlocked.
9. Was a former North Korean rocket scientist who went mad after he was forced to eat his own feces. Tragically, that made him common among the 99% of the Korean population which is a sad thing to say...
VIVA USA!, USA!, USA!, USA!, USA!
PERPETUAL DEFICATION LEADS YOU HERE. LEFT IN YOUR LIFE IS NOTHING BUT ANUS.
Look around you... Can you hear them coming for you?
Seriously.
LEFT IN YOUR LIFE IS NOTHING BUT ANUS.
What a classic!
LMAO...beer shot out of my nose when I read that TOMG.
YOU VERY FUNNY MAN!
I'll bet some rocket scientists and their entire families have been "eliminated". Nice to see NK fail.
lol, too funny bro! watch your next test and BE ON THE LOOK OUT! FYI – the next test won't get shot down, US AMERICANS will let that one fly, but.............. WE WILL DROP 2 REAL NUKES RIGHT IN THE HEART OF ALL Y'ALL CHINCK ASS MOFO'S LAUGHING AT YOUR SAD ATTEMPT AT A "TEST"!!!! BOOM!!! HEAD SHOT!!! ALL YOU ALL ARE DEAD!!!! DO YOU LIKE TESTING NOW?????

AMEN, PENAL OPENING HOLE IS AWAITING FECAL MATTER TO PLACED AND SHOVED UP INSIDE SO THAT IT MUST SHOOT ROUND BEANS OF SWEET SMELLING ROCKET CHUNKS INTO THE MOUTHS OF THE AMERIKA CAPATILIST MORTAGE CRIMINALS, AMEN
North Korea is the Mexico of the Asian world-
discuss:
North Korea is under no pressure to do anything . We have rocket failures here in the US all the time . In the 60's we talked about the Soviets like they were backwards and they kicked our buts in the space program. So afraid NK might just become a legit nation wanting nothing from the failed American capitalists' .
MGTO, what is up with your comments. Have you ever heard the saying "better to be thought of as a fool rather than open your mouth and remove all doubt" Fat and stupid is no way to go thru life son!
LARGE BUTT OPENING IS READY FOR URINE ENTRY THEN EXPULSION OF YELLOW RAIN INTO AIR AND ALL OVER YOUR TEMPLE TO MAKE GREAT DAY FOR YOU AS IF LOVE
KARMHA IN THINE BUTT IS FULL OF SWEET SMELL URINE FOR YOURETH MOUTH TO SAVOR ON THE MOUNTAIN OF FECES RIVER
SHIT URINE IN MOUTH OF TOILET WE DRANK FROM MOUTH OF YELLOW SPOTTED FECES FOR GOODNESS, AMEN
Instead of concentrating on "nuclear weapons plan", he ought to concentrate on developing a "grow some food plan" to feed his people?? The apples don't fall far from the trees in this family. I wonder if he knows what an apple tree looks like??
"the rocket failure is unlikely to put the new "LEADER" in any sort of immediate jeopardy??? So the New Boss is the same as Old Boss! How could -Un learn leadership skils from Il, who had no leadership skills at all. I bet the rocket's fuel gauge was on "E" when they launched it.
are all north koreekees as stupid as tomg is?
dayum he is ignorance at its worse
Gentlemen, we can rebuild him ! Errr, as soon as we fish all the pieces out of the ocean .....
PLACEMENT OF KARMA INITIAL WITH AMERIKAN URINE IS NO BETTER THAN IN THE BROWN CAVITY. LOCAL LIBRARIES WILL ISTRIBUTE YIUR WISODOM AND CONTINUING ILOITERACY.
TOMG, MGTO: Do you have nothing to contribute to the discussion besides incoherent rantings about feces, urine and anuses? Are you just ignorant, or is this the result of being habitually butt-f%^&#ed by your leaders? How about explaining where you think we are misinformed or misguided. Are you afraid to argue the facts or is it beyond your mental capabilities? The latter is probably the case given your inability to put together anything resembling a meaningful statement.
BE AWARE ALL ON PAGES OF COMMENTS THAT INITIAL KARMA WILL BE POOR WITH URINE AND FAECES. PLEASE DON'T ASK TO BORROW, AMEN.
These must be quotes from "The Confucius frat boy" years 0-0
TOMG and TOMG2: you are a pathetic fool. I get a kick out of cowards like yourself who hide behind the anonymity of the internet to publicly act like a complete idiot. I'll bet your real life has some fairly close parallels to how you act on the internet.
ANOTHER AMERIKAN WHO DEFAUKTED ON YOUR MORTGAGE RIGHT? OF COURSE YOU CANNOT HELP YOURSELF WITH URINATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM. BE WARE THAT END OF YIUR AMERIKA IS ON THE LOOSE.
This is a Korean using google translate, notice the horribly conjugated verbs
HUMAN WASTE ARE FULL OF WORLD SHIT TO SAW AND INHALE AND TO SMELL ON AND IN , AMEN
Sorry to say, but this was the best comments ever. Don't like it? You people take yourselves too seriously. You can comment on any of the 12+ articles on CNN.

I've forgotten what the article is about, I'm just enjoying TOMG's rant. Does anyone have the faintest clue what he/she is talking about???
He likes urine.
gotcha. Thanks.
Don't have a clue what it's saying...but it's getting some really risque words past the CNN filters. Not sure how it's doing it.
WE IN GREAT COUNTRY WILL HAVE ALL OUR LESSONS SHARED IN BAD WEST SCHOOLS AND MBA COLLEGES. DON'T ASK FOR ADVICE HOW TO TREAT YOUR MESSD UP HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.
But we have indoor plumbing.
@SUM DUM PHOK ...I recommend your country focus on fixing it's many woes, as opposed to concentrating on building the world's largest firecracker.
I thought I was the only one, but it is really impressive that he or she is slipping all the profanities past CNN
The most amazing thing is that countries in the Middle East are revolting to get rid of despots that have been their leaders and North Korea remains the "property" of the Kim family. When Chinese peasants live like Beverly Hills billionaires compared to the average North Korean, it is amazing that the Kim family and their military buddies can keep a lid on public revolt. And, at what point will the U.S. "lean" on China to get rid of these clowns? The answer is never. Why? Because they hold a lot of our debt.
You mean, the Lil Kim family? And secondly, you're wrong. You know why? Think about it.
I EAT BUCKET OF WEST KENTUKY FRIED CHIKEN SOAKED IN KARMA URINE. THEN TROW UP IN EAST DIRECTION, AMEN
wow, that sounds like that night when i was with your mother, and you was in the other room, and you thought i was hurting her, and you tried to kick the door down, remember?

A MORE POWERFUL SHIT ARE COMING TO ME I PRAY FOR AIDS , AMEN
A so?
We make guud wocket...u see u see toopid mericans....wocket go up..bang bang me wuv u long time.
Well here's my opinion. What Lil Kim is trying to do is.....like that saying goes, you can't make lemon aid, if you don't break a few eggs first. Now if it was scramble eggs, than the rocket would have been a success. De....de....deeeeee.
I AM HUMAN WASTE GOD OF HELL GIVE ME ALL SHIT AND URINE I EAT AND DRINK , AMEN
Do we have to pay attention to a toy country like North Korea?.
Of course we do, duh! Have you never watched Austin Power's Dr Evil? Than you should know, what Lil Kim is capable of doing.
HUMAN ARE KARMA COMING A 10.0 SHIT EARTHQUAKE ENTIRE WORLD ENGULFED IN URINE MANY WILL DROWN BUT I WILL PREVEIL
somebody please remove TOMG useless comments
HUMAN WASTE IS FULL OF KARMA. AMEN
Can I get a hallelujah?!?
these comments are the best thing i've seen in weeks.
I THANK GOD....
HUMAN WASTE SHIT FORM ARE FULL OF KARMA AND STINKY AND SO SMELL AND SO DOES THE HUMAN URINE ALSO , AMEN
WTF ARE YOU BABBLING YOUR MOUTH ABOUT?
It's back, could someone please contact CNN about this guy. PLEASE! It's getting annoying.
Jamie Crawford, I'm sure North Korea did a better job at constructing a rocket than you could do. By the way, do you realize how many failures the U.S. space program had when it started out? Should we have been humiliated too? Finally, who are we to say North Korea cannot have a space program or that Iran cannot have nuclear technology? We don't own the world.
This is a very naive statement. I might suggest reading some history, but that might not help here. Having been to Korea myself, I can say with some confidence that this regime must NEVER be allowed to have a successful ballistic or nuclear capability...certainly not both together.
MORE POWERFUL EARTHQUAKE WILL BE ARRIVING SOON 1O.O AND HIGHER WILL AWAKENING THIS FUCK UP HELL THINKING WAY FULL OF HUMAN WASTE SHIT AND HUMAN URINE NOW DAILY , AMEN
Missed that 4pm dose of thorazine, did ya?
FEED THEM OUR HUMAN WASTE SHIT LEFT OVER AND PUT IN THE CAN AND HUMAN URINE ALSO PUT IN THE BOTTLE SO THEM CAN HAVE A MORE PEACE OF LIFE AND HAVE A HAPPIER LIFESTYLE , AMEN
CNN will teach them how if they can cover it... At-least it would be news for once
REINCARNATION OF THE FULL HUMAN WASTE SHIT AND HUMAN URINE HELL WA OF DOG THINKING STUPID FUCK UP CIVILIZATION HELL DOG WORLD , FULL OF HELL KARMA ARE COMING YES , AMEN
I'd like to take a moment and apologize for this... Here at DARPA, our ultra enhanced monkeys on keyboards project has been doing incredibly well. They can communicate a little bit but they fly UAV's like a duck!
You must simply ignore the poop-flinging nature of these monkeys. It's just what they do.
TOMG it's time for your nanner!
well at least the kids are talking about world events...*sigh*
THIS WORLD ARE FULL OF HUMAN WASTE SHIT AND HUMAN URINE NOW DAILY , AMEN

It awes me how they would think that they are God Like. It will be great to see him one day at hung or shot like Hussain or Gadafi.
TOMG your Korean to Engrish translator seems to be losing a little in the translation. Perhaps you are holding your translator too close to the tin can?

Booooooby, come upstairs, yer dinner is ready...
We shot it down with a airborne mounted laser attached to a F15 whos squadron is stationed in the area. maybe someone will salvage the wreckage for intel, to see whos giving them technical support. Its probably obama, but im not sure. Lol
Cite proof or shut the fuck up.
I blame the mushroom people.
You were close. Shipborne.
the laser is a boeing( ABL YAL 1A ) series, usually mounted on a airforce 747-400 series, but as the other matt mention other platforms are used as well, including ground. They are made exactly for this type of situation, and to destroy a missle or rocket in this stage of flight as well. As far as solid proof for the public, well that tape will come out a year after the osama bin laden raid with seal team 6 (dev-gru), nightstalkers and the d boys are made public.
If the president sat in fron of the cameras right now and said we shot it down, North Korean tanks would be rolling South more likely than not (they may not have the desired result), but its another war we dont need. Using this system we can maintain denyability, and avoid conflict. this way they feel they messed up and at this time can still come to the peace table if cooler minds prevail.
We have lasers with that kind of capability?
FUCK THE EAST AND FUCK THE WEST IN THE END WE ALL EATTING BACK ALL THE HUMAN WASTE SHIT AND DRINKING ALL THE HUMAN URINE IN THE KARMA WA OF RETURN BACK TO THE HELL WORLD , AMEN
I am Iron Man.
Newt Gingrich, is that you?

Time for your Librium shot?
Google Translate isn't all it's cut out to be.
I like cheeese!!!
I LIKE BIRDS!!
I like TOE cheese!!!
The press has been trying to make a big deal out of this rocket launch. No one cares.
actually, quite a people who can look outside their own borders are quite interested in it.
Yeah ppl care but its not the big mighty threat they want to believe.
Big might threat to South Korea. Literally Millions of peoples lives are at risk there.
Well we have all of this expensive blitzkrieg equipment, how else can we justify all of our spending.
It's obvious that their technology is behind. Only their mouths that are big. It's time to strike big and hard and to liberate the North Korean people
As opposed to small and limp, like L'il Kim's weenus?
Its obvious their shlongs are not big.
needledinked zipperheads!
KARMA WILL ALWAYS PREVEIL TO THE HELL SEEKER FULL OF HUMAN WASTE SHIT IN THEIR OWN MOUNTH AND BEEN OVER DRINKING THEIR HUMAN URINE , AMEN
And the guy behind him has a smile on his face.
THE KARMA OF THE HELL HUMAN WASTE SHIT AND HUMAN URINE HAVE BEEN FORMING MORE THAN FIVE FUCKEN BILLIONS YEARS ALREADY , AMEN
Did the new ruler get set-up? He sure looks upset in the picture.
"The U.S. had an extreme number of failures in the 1960s, while the Soviet juggernaut seemed to be flawless in its ability to put satellites and humans into space," said Bruce Klingner, a senior research fellow for Northeast Asia at the Heritage Foundation.
I REALLY hope there is a heavy dose of sarcasm under the second half of Mr. Klingner's statement. "Seemed to be" is the operative phrase...if all your missles blow up and you hide it from the world, it never happened – right?
"The U.S. had an extreme number of failures in the 1960s, while the Soviet juggernaut seemed to be flawless
**EXCUSE ME!** shall we try "early 60s? We went to the moon before the 60s were over? How many Soviet landers on Mars again? How many missions to Jupiter & beyond? Some early failures, but not all through 60s....
some of the commenters on this blog scare me more than north korea does....
Maybe he farted.
Or snorked?
As I heard on a news channel this AM, and I totally agree with, a quick game plan.:
When Harry Truman threatened N Korea with nukes, N. Korea signed a truce. This did not end the "Korean War: It only placed it on "Pause" Only one thing has been on N Korea's mind since signing, get our own nukes and deliivery system....THEN we can take the south back as The Glorious Leader intended. Consuder; This may have been a test of the first stage. The other stages have flown. Maybe this is a ploy have us discount their abilities and desires.
If N. Korea constructs a fleet of medium to long range Nukes, even if it takes another two decades, they will then take S Korea and thumb their noses at the world powers
YOUR ALL DUM FUCK ONLY KNOW HOW AND WANT TO NUKE THIS FAT ASSS AND DON'T KNOW THE KARMA CONSEQUENCES , AMEN
that's what i took from it. seems like a ploy to convince those watching that an intercontinental ballistic missile is out of reach for north korea but in this day and age where misinformation always precedes battle, i wouldn't be suprised. truely the only thing that will help this country is a coup. but with the 4th largest military force in the world, how is that possible? i also think the act of defiance is really believed by NK's leaders to be innocent enough for them to get away with it.
Hoss, you had better brush up on your history. Harry Truman did not threaten North Korea with a nuclear bomb. He fired McArthur for talking about it and trying to change foreign policy decisions among other things. Harry Truman did drop the bomb on Horoshima and Nagasaki Japan. he also fire bombed the living hell out of Tokyo and several other Japanese cities as he did Berlin and Dresden among other German cities. Give em hell Harry lived up to his name.
HUMAN KARMA FORM ARE GO SLEEP AND THAN WAKENING UP GIVE OUT HUMAN WASTE SHIT AND HUMAN URINE AND EAT WHAT EVER WE HUMAN WASTE SHIT LEFT OVER AND THAN DRINKING THE HUMAN URINE , AMEN
MAMMA DOGFACE TO THE BANANA PATCH?
OOPS! I FORGOT........AMEN!
maybe if we.. clap, it won't look so bad LOL JK YOU GUYS SUCK AT EVERYTHING
We must remember to separate the people from the leaders. All countries are branded by their leaders, and in our case our senate and house. The N. Korean people have qualities that are impressive individually, but when taken as a country as a whole as directed by their leader, they deserve to starve after launching such a slap in the face to whirrled peas.
A100 years ago when the Titanic sunk was a bigger slap in the face to whirled peas than a failed present day NK rocket launch . Get a fuhqin grip man.
