North Korea fired two ballistic missiles Thursday morning, a South Korean military official said, in the latest controversial move amid U.S.-South Korean military drills that have angered the rogue state.
The two missiles flew about 310 miles at about 5:20 a.m. (3:20 p.m. Wednesday ET) and were fired from North Korea's northern shore, the military official said. Analysts said they were Scud-type missiles.
The apparent launch comes after heated rhetoric from North Korea in recent days that has included threats of a preemptive nuclear strike.

Time to take this tard out
Iran fires ballistic missiles...
China fires ballistic missiles...
Russia fires ballistic missiles...
America signs an agreement with Iran that will endanger the whole planet, especially Israel.
Obama surrendered American hegemony in the world.
North Korea wants South Korea - I say we hand it over.
The South Koreans HATE us.
After all the Americans who died for Korea.
After all the Americans who might die for Korea.
It’s not worth it.
Let the little bastards defend themselves and hate us for free.
To take this little scumbag down once and for all we will need complete cooperation of strong ally Japan, where 70,000 US troops are now stationed—to say nothing of South Korea. And yet, I can personally assure you Japan is extremely unnerved at present by the rather uncalled for and endless Japan Bashing and other simplistic geopolitical vitriol on the part of candidate and would-be nominee Donald Trump. It’s nice to wish away Kim Jong Un, but it’s another thing to devise a solid strategy and plan to do it with all our key allies on board. Trump is spreading way too much ill will, disharmony and trepidation out here for no damned good reason. Many wish he would stop playing fast and loose with serious things.
they’re a nuclear power. you can’t just take them out, and that’s the whole problem here. but we can and should learn the one indispensable lesson regarding north korea — this is exactly why you don’t let rogue regimes acquire nuclear weapons.
see: our impending failure in iran.
While it is true that "The White House is not a place for rookies" still it is fair to note that there is a difference between a Rookie who promised to "Fundamentally Transform The United States of America" and one who wants to "Make America Great Again".
The *types* of mistakes will be different...
Wouldn’t it be a waste of a perfectly suitable nuclear warhead, to mount it on anything as notoriously inaccurate, not to say subject to launch failure (yikes!), as a Scud?
He so ronery.
They don’t hate America. They aren’t too fond of our lying govt tho.
South Korea is a small country.
If it is an EMP device, all bets are off. Lots of good reading on "Starfish Prime" way earlier on Free Republic.
South korean tv and govt says they NK have it and can do it.
Good chance it would get shot down. The population density of northern south Korea is very high.
He also has the 4th largest military and nasty wmd. Not the best equipped but we’ll enough to kill a lot of people.
You’re right about Trump’s wreckless wording of phrases about Japanese & Chinese.
TRUMP: “They’re taking our money.”
On NHK (Japan TV), that is interpreted to sound like they’re THIEVES.
What Trump meant to say is “They are outcompeting us.”
Totally undiplomatic on Trump’s part. he needs to apologize and make amends with Japan.
Too many indefinite pronouns. I’m not sure what you meant.
Get a memo into Tokyo: Trump complemented Japanese leaders and stated they were smarter than our betraying sellouts. There was no, “Uncalled for and endless Japan Bashing” by Trump, as you described.
BS
