N. Korea may fire 2 more missiles: Japanese Defense Agency (Jul.05 7:43pm)
N. Korea fires 5th missile at around 7:50pm: Japanese Defense Agency (Jul.05 8:09pm)
Fifth??? And I never heard about the fourth.
Japan please get some offensive air capability and teach them to stop being a squeeky wheel.
There was a sixth as well. Quite the breaking story
...And, I've been thinking that the Muslims were the nuttiest people on earth.
It's a tie.
This is the weirdest Independence Day I've ever seen.
We need a freaking scoreboard. Don't our fireworks last longer than 35 seconds?
Speaking of weird...did you happen to see the footage of the violent rain storm that blew through DC a little while ago. All the people on the mall went running for cover. The photos were unbelievable...downpour, but the wind looked like a tropical storm.
Knew we wouldn't, or couldn't, shoot them down. We now have real problems. And what a message it sent to Iran. Now Iran knows that they must finish their nukes for their missiles knowing we can't do a damn thing about them. We just keep getting in deeper and deeper and were are losing respect around the world. All talk. That scares me.
If this is a test of N Kor operations readiness, they are is rough shape.
Hope this record keeps up.
NK is in cahoots with Iran to stir up trouble away from the Middle-East. I'd say, keep a close eye on Iran, they're up to something. Could this also be related to the Israel action in Gaza?
When Israel moves on Gaza will Iran fire conventional missiles into Israel? Too many coincidences here for there not to be a plan?
I think the only kind we would shoot down would be an ICBM and that's the one that exploded after 35 seconds. The others, at least the first two, were just SCUDs.
I haven't heard what #4-6 were.
"Knew we wouldn't, or couldn't, shoot them down."
I didn't know about that. Where did you get this information?
Hmmm. Entebbe raid anniversary too.
(slap) Pull yourself together! We really have no clue on how this all is playing out. Why would n. korea (chicoms proxy) show this huge weakness to the world?
Sounds like it's your turn to be worried today. If N Kor starts it won't be as coordinated as it was 1/2 a century ago. It's one thing to line everybody up on the border and start them running south at the toot of a bugle, but getting technology working together effectively demands a lot of scheduling, rehearsal and training. Still, they have a lot of tubes and troops and it will be a noisy three weeks on the penninsula.
No, that's my brother's neck of the woods. I thought it was going to storm here in northeastern NYS, but it hasn't yet. Something is interfering majorly with my wireless connection right now.
I'd say that NK is doing just about everything to get someone to attack them. Why? Do they want an excuse to cross the 38th parallel again?
