Wait, why would NK launch a missile at France?

France and NK's relationship is very poor.

France do not recongize the legitimacy of North Korea as a nation and it has flat out refused to have diplomatic relations with them.

Aside from nations with solid history in North Korea like South Korea, Japan and the US. France is one of their most hated opponents

France's entire approach to NK is "Fuck those guys they're fucking assholes fuck them."

I mean... I suppose so. It doesn't seem like France really has to worry about any attacks from them anytime soon.

Nobody does, the point is NK wants to be a threat to them. They are creating missiles and trying to create the facilities to reach the west.

The US and France will be their targets to make threats and pose

Moving on, Jester claims reports indicate this missile was aimed at our fleet. This could get messy...

For those who don't know, Jester is a white hat hacker who is privy to a lot of information. He's leaked a lot of stuff before it broke news, so it's fair to say there's a good chance he's right here.

It didn't even make it out of the silo, though. It makes North Korea look like the school jock who thinks he is so cool and tough, but fails instantly when he actually tries to do something.

How long is it going to take our fleet to get there? It feels like it's been a full week of "strike group heading towards Korea".

It was also a short-range missile according to US intelligence

so they aimed it at US property?
---

They should be punished for this. Will we ever know if they intended to launch this missile at an actual target? It's the intent that matters.

The president readys himself for North Korea's missile

Future generations will blame us for not doing anything when we had a chance.

If NK is so incompetent why haven't we spread democracy there yet??

Damn

Because while they are no threat to us, they are to nearby South Korea and Japan, and them getting blasted would be really, really, really bad for the entire world. Not to mention China are still "allies" with them, though that alliance has become very shaky in the last few years.
---

North Korea is just gunna get so fed up with us and the rest of the world basically laughing at them, that they're just gunna invade South Korea gorilla warfare style just to act like they have balls. Then we and the rest of the world are gunna get involved and tear apart North Korea once and for all.

why do i feel like i hear something along the lines of "North Korea fails at..." every other week?

Because this is like their 7th failed launch since February

Is this South Korea telling on its sibling North Korea so the Us can do something about them?

I bet it is.

What if it's not North Korea that's incompetent, but America sabotaging them? Something like stuxnet or w/e in Iran larvesta

North Korea are still stuck in the 50's tech-wise, so they are probably just incompetent.
---

North Korea being incompetent is ALWAYS the easy money.

Also just looked up and Un is like 5'9" and 300 pounds, I don't care if he's mid 30's he's going to have a heart attack by 50 at this rate.

North Korea is working on at least two ICBMs with enough range to strike anywhere in the US. They have also demonstrated the capability to detonate a nuke at least five separate times, the most recent having been announced as a miniaturized warhead. If North Korea isn't already a threat simply because its nuke-happy psychopath of a leader actually possesses nukes, it will be in less than a decade when they can reliably deliver them, whether from North Korea or from a submarine. They are practicing SLBMs, too.

Three years ago, President Barack Obama ordered Pentagon officials to step up their cyber and electronic strikes against North Korea’s missile program in hopes of sabotaging test launches in their opening seconds.

Soon a large number of the North’s military rockets began to explode, veer off course, disintegrate in midair and plunge into the sea. Advocates of such efforts say they believe that targeted attacks have given American antimissile defenses a new edge and delayed by several years the day when North Korea will be able to threaten American cities with nuclear weapons launched atop intercontinental ballistic missiles.

But other experts have grown increasingly skeptical of the new approach, arguing that manufacturing errors, disgruntled insiders and sheer incompetence can also send missiles awry. Over the past eight months, they note, the North has managed to successfully launch three medium-range rockets. And Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, now claims his country is in “the final stage in preparations” for the inaugural test of his intercontinental missiles — perhaps a bluff, perhaps not.

This whole article is really good in how it talks about this exact thing being the goal of the Pentagon and how Un has thought this has been happening.

A lot of people forget that it doesn't even take a single direct hit to cause a catastrophic EMP.

First thing I thought of before entering topic.

This is yet another failure from North Korea while trying to make an impact against the rest of the world.

It reminds me of The 30 Man Royal Rumble at Madison Square Garden in front of 19,231 fans back in 2000 where Kaientai (Funaki and Taka Michinoku) were furious that they were not taken seriously enough to be entered into the match.

As a response throughout the bout they repeatedly hit the ring and tried to interfere to show their strength, only to repeatedly fail and be tossed side every single time over and over.

You gotta believe that sooner or later North Korea, like Kaientai have to realize that this isn't working and they are not being taken seriously for a reason. Instead of futile outbursts, they need to focus and improve themselves and then come to the table down the line with a new attitude, better performance and better standing.

Which is what Funaki did and a little under 5 years later he shocked the world when he defeated Spike Dudley and became the new Cruiserweight Champion.



Could you imagine where North Korea could be in 5 years time with a strong effort of improvement and better attitude?
---

I remember when Funaki won the Cruiserweight Champion. Then the next several years he was nothing more than a fodder

If we could just stop getting involved in civil wars in places that don't want democracy,

Difference is that if North Korea can sucessfuly launch missiles, then they could launch nuclear missiles on The US, France, Japan.

North Korea is not a civil war. it's a global issue, America is involved

Holy shit. You think it's that easy to send missiles across the entire world? Do you understand anything about anything? North Korea isn't a threat. They have no force projection.

America's military is dangerous because we have bases, aircraft carriers, and submarines all over THE ENTIRE PLANET so we can attack anyone at almost any time.

If we just had a bunch of stuff on US soil we wouldn't be able to launch missiles into foreign countries from America.

Children shouldn't be talking about war when they don't even understand the basic logistics of warfare.

Just had to say, almost any time?
