North Korea Test Fires Five Missiles

SEOUL, South Korea - North Korea fired five short-range missiles off its east coast on Monday, news reports said, even as South Korea proposed working-level talks with its communist neighbor.

South Korea's Yonhap news agency, citing an unidentified South Korean government official, said the North test-fired two short-range missiles on Monday morning and three others on Monday afternoon from mobile launch pads.

Yonhap said the missiles were surface-to-surface KN-02 rockets with a range of up to 75 miles.

The reported launches were the first since the regime conducted a barrage of seven ballistic missile tests in early July, and come despite signs North Korea is reaching out to rival South Korea and the United States after months of heightened tensions over its missile and nuclear programs.

So much for the efforts of the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize winner, eh?

 

[Mr. H.]

Not a fair assessment. That medal was awarded posthumorously.

North Korea is a joke and their not a threat to us, what's interesting is who gave them the missile technology. Answer: Clinton Admnistration.

Saying it twice doesn't make it true-er-er.

You forget we have troops in South Korea as well as Japan. If the NorComs bomb Japan along with our troops stationed there what would be your response?

We already know what Obamas' response would be; Strenuous Condemnation Only.

Come on, troops rarely are given a consideration by many on the left.

Its a shame our country "doesn't" "practice" political assasination.
