Granted a lot of Americans are going to do like my 16 yo GrandDaughter and say, "What country was that?", when I was telling them all about the nuke test and the missiles, but at least she has an excuse, she is a brain dead teenager.
I see your point. I was aware of course of the time difference and also the three day weekend. I think the firestorm of interest should start up in earnest, then, in the next 3-4 hours.
Above is a quote from our dear leader on the subject on a new thread, and below is a quote from Japans Prime Minister!
Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso reacted even more sternly, calling the test a violation of U.N. sanctions. "It is unacceptable," Aso said, adding that an emergency meeting of the Security Council expected later Monday in New York would deal with the test, North Korea's second since 2006. Japan is particularly sensitive to such actions because its territory is within North Korean missile range.
I like his fire much better than Bozo's reaction to talk them to death. The "It is unacceptable part" tells me what I need to know about him. Link to the thread below:
