Don't care, Iran on fire.

North Korea? I thought they had gone off to some corner somewhere to complain about how unfair it all is.

All I know is that liberals are suddenly fond of missile defense.

Interesting...

Some questions for those of you who are more in the know than I am:

1. Are our ships allowed to force them to stop?
2. If they are stopped forcibly and the crew fires on our guys is that an act of war?
3. What's China doing during all of this?

They're not real missiles. They're papier mache and filled with bamboo leaves and the bones of small children.

I don't get these guys and their intent. We haven't actively done anything recently, as opposed to say, a year ago. How is this country all of a sudden, with no direct change in policy, to blame for provoking war?

North Korea has the worst hotel built in history. Ryugyong Hotel (new window) "The Ryugyong Hotel in North Korea, where the world's 22nd largest skyscraper has been vacant for two decades and is likely to stay that way ... forever."

On other news, the BBC has excellent video of the Iran protesters in action. The thing that caught my eye in the video is the protesters are so brave. BBC Link (new window)

If you want to read classic old media journalism by a reporter with passion and courage, his report from Iran is as good as it gets. Roger Cohen of NYT proves the old media is not dead. May it rise again. Roger was vilified by the usual suspects for reaching for peace. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/21/opinion/21tehran.html

We have most certainly developed short and medium range missile defense systems that work. It's the ones that go into space that are the problem.



Statement too broad. Try again, asshat.

DigitalGadfly: Some questions for those of you who are more in the know than I am:

1. Are our ships allowed to force them to stop?
No, they can ask to inspect but only if they are allowed. If they pull into port, the port can hold them until they comply. But that is on the condition that they are a UN friendly port.
2. If they are stopped forcibly and the crew fires on our guys is that an act of war?
3. What's China doing during all of this?
Hoping they dont have to pick sides.

"Journey into Kimland" (new window) is a great story about a teacher's trip to North Korea. This guy is fluent in English and Korean, so he has some great stories to share.

 
Ivor the Friendly Viking 2009-06-21 12:13:20 PM  
Why is it that whenever North Korea makes headlines, I hear "COBRAAA!" shouted in the background?

That's gotta be a nominee for best headlines at this point.

Seriously? In a thread about a threat to the US you try to divert attention to your own manufactured internal strife?

Yeah...that's where the REAL enemies are--people that have slightly different views for the future of this country, not the countries with nuclear weapons that are threatening imminent attack. Yeah, that's freaking brilliant.

God I'm sick of partisan idiots who NEED an enemy to battle. Divided we fall...I guess that's too obvious.

This should have been obvious before the Iraq war, but of course that went over people's heads. 30,000 people died at the government's hands in Iraq! Oh yeah, those 3 million in North Korea...bummer.

So much THIS I still don't why China hasn't biatch slap NK, they need the US more then they need NK. If they where to side with NK in any sort of war and the US pulls out all of our industrial contracts with them China economy would tank so fast we'd probably feel a breeze on the west coast.

Has anyone told The Daily Showthat North Korea calls it taepodong? Because they probably want to make some jokes about that.

 
edmo 2009-06-21 12:31:00 PM  
I expect NK to do something stupid any minute now. As they usually behave like spoiled children demanding to be the center of attention, it cannot be good that Iran is hogging the spotlight.

They've knocked down quite a few in tests. It's been invented and works pretty well, just not widely implemented AFAIK.

Missiles aren't are main worry in this era though. Why go to the trouble to make a missile when you could cruise your nuke into SF bay in a tiny sub or aircraft launched from 200 miles out at sea?

Another case of the US trying to start another war


Bee Roo Ga Ho Shee:
Have you been following North Korean news over the past years? THEY are the ones completely dependent on foreign aid, and if anyone so much as HINTS that they will no longer provide them with their rice, or beans, or whatever the fark they eat over there, they will consider that to be an act of war.


Damn straight! Kim Jong Il is making sure his people are fed. If he didnt feed his people you would be "blah blah blah Kim starves his people to death blah blah blah" They have a right to that food.

That's profoundly dumb. No one has a "right" to live for decades off of charity while spewing death threats and pouring every dollar into weapons to threaten the people giving away that very charity. If they need aid then fair enough, but this is all profoundly bad taste.

 
INTERTRON 2009-06-21 12:41:12 PM  
Hey, hey,
I'm sure what Marla said was just poorly phrased or misunderstood. I highly doubt she was saying that missile defense itself, that is, the process of destroying missiles, doesn't exist. Nobody is dumb enough to make that incredibly outrageous claim. Let's just hear her out, and see what she really meant.

That's the economic deterrent model. We're all so dependent pulling the economic plug guarantees our mutual destruction.
