Tonight there's urgent new evidence that north korea is ready to launch a missile at any hour, any moment, a show of force, a defiant test of world reaction. ABC news has been told that the fuel has been loaded. The missile is on the pad.
And our bob woodruff is in south korea to bring us more details right now. Reporter: The top u. S.
Defense official responded to kim jong-un'sising rhetoric today. North korea's actions have been skating very close to a dangerous line. Reporter: There is some anxiety growing on the streets and in the subways of seoul amid south korean news reports than emergency threat levels jumped to watchcon-2, which is one step away from war.
Even as koreans went about their daily routines, young koreans have lived through endless propaganda and missile tests for decades. Now even they are starting to wonder about kim jong-un. He is very crazy.
Reporter: He's crazy? Parents are getting nervous. Sae jung kim told me for the first time in this conflict tomorrow, she will not take her son to kindergarten.
Any strike, anywhere else, i want my kids to be with me. Reporter: Even if that happens, that missile would be mid range called muse dan. Never before tested.
Powerful enough to travel 2,000 miles putting us bases in okinawa or guam within its reach. Moving patriots missiles into position around tokyo.
The danger here is kim jong-un has ramped up the tension to such a point that even the smallest action could provoke a larger fight, a war or significant military clash. Reporter: As for timing, most believe this launch will happen sometime this week because next monday is kim jong-un's grandfather's birthday. On that day, most of these launches have happened in the morning

The actual rocket design is a liquid fuel rocket using a hypergolic combination of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine as fuel, and inhibited red fuming nitric acid as oxidizer; this fuel/oxidizer combination does not vaporise like liquified hydrogen/oxygen gas at 35°C. As a result, once the fuel/oxidizer combination were fed into the missile, it could maintain a 'ready to launch' condition for several days, or even weeks, like the R-27 SLBM; however it could not be kept longer than this, because of tank corrosion caused by the red fuming nitric acid.
Yes, there is a downside. In response, dispersed generals would launch hundreds of chemical munitions and thousands of conventional artillery rounds at Seoul, South Korea..
Where do they get those hats!!?
I know, made by slave labor, but just asking. The Chicoms have been laughing at Norkie military fashions since the Korean War.
About 50 freepers live in Austin. Despite the lib enclaves, Austin is one of the most heavily defended cities, probably in the top 5. Don’t ask any of us how we know.
The little devil has declared war against the US! That means he is threatening US, we the people, not little barry abstard boy who will be tucked away in a secured bunker.
Why do they have vibrators on the table?
I’ll believe N. Korea has 18,000 functional aircraft in their air force when pigs fly...
They're in cahoots with obama.
I think this muscle flexing thing comes from a ‘secret’ meeting between US and NK where we probably told them to expect a harsh response next time they wage a major cyber attack on us like they did earlier this year. Possible?

Remember .. only part of the question of who was answered in above paragraph.
What would be the motive for running a ruse?
Simple and true answer Money. lil kim is saying by his actions he wants money. Why am I bothering to type this ... everyone knows this. Motive ... Money.
Where is the proof this is not some elaborate ruse or if this is not an elaborate ruse where is the proof?
There is no proof except to go back to what is the motive question in the above paragraph.
To what degree or when does this add to or detract from what is true or not true.
Experts ... gotta love them and please note most of them are well paid. So what and when do experts know? Simple answer ... when the rest of us know. Experts are props.
What is the truth and do I have it?
I answer like Fox on this one .... I report ... you decide.
I don’t think it’s Austin. I superimposed a map over that image and — as as near as I can tell — the line extends to Dallas, or directly over Dallas to Atlanta. Both cities fall under the line. I can’t be sure because I don’t know the point of origin.
ZERO
Joe? Honest ... I didn’t receive the call.
Hagel cancels a planned U.S. intercontinental ballistic missile test for this week after China urges both Washington and Pyongyang to cool it. So we look like (insert P word), and now, FLK (Fat ‘Lil Kim) is preparing to launch. Makes me wonder what’s really going on here with China. Devil’s advocate?
I wonder if you’d act so brave if you were actually within range of their weapons?
“Who is North Koreas ally besides China?”
Iran, Syria, China and basically any country who hates the US.
