The main thing I think we need to include in our response is severe ridicule. We should be broadcasting international coverage of how their "most advanced" missile failed a few seconds after launch into North Korea on every wavelength.
The President should make a statement to the effect of, "We had planned to test our missile defense system on their long range missile, but the thing fell down on its own before we could even target it. What a disappointment." That should also be broadcast into North Korea, along with jibes from major military leaders both here and from Japan.
We need to do whatever we can to let the people of North Korea know that their government's "military first" policy, for which they are starving in their millions, has led to utter failure and the sneering disdain of the world. North Korea has a shame-based culture. Let's let them know how little respect, and fear, their government has earned.
Updated information here.
Now, what will be the West response? We must not reward this behavior...
early reports say longer range... but probably not ICBM
damn wingnut (as Col. Hunt called him this morning)
UPDATE: Now reports say they tried to launch the long-range missle but the launch failed... and apparently now a 4th missle...
Story building
no 4th missle... but 3rd was apparently long range and failed 40 seconds after launch...
First reports indicate a couple of short range missiles fired by the North Koreans, apparently surface to air, which have crashed back into the sea.
Breaking.
Happy Fourth!
Our prayers our with the crew for a successful mission.
This isn't a day to take anything from anyone. We're Americans. Even our soiree-going editors eat scorpions for fun.
There is nothing wrong with America that faith, love of freedom, intelligence, and energy of her citizens cannot cure.
This is the legacy of July 4th, 1776. No challenge we face is too difficult for us not to be able to overcome with our faith and dedication to the ideals millions of our forefathers toiled, fought, suffered and often died for.
...and still playing the rebellious teenager. Yay us!
H/t to all the "been there, done that, got the t-shirts to prove it types" - and an extra tip of the hat to those of you about to go get your first, or add to the collection!
And for those of you *in* the box - hurry back safe, we're drinkin' all yer beer, *but* we're kicking Jodie's a$$ so s/he'll lay off yer sweetie!
John of Argghhh!
Yes, Happy Birthday. And if Natalie and people like her don't get it, I sure feel sorry for them.
And thank you to all our military and our veterans.
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY! and God Bless, America.
