Bow to their leader? Blame it on Israel?

Idunno, I give up.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson

We say it was a misunderstanding that it was a satellite
for peace and then we send them boat loads of money.

"A spokesman for the Defense Ministry in Seoul told journalists that the rocket had broken up and crashed into the sea a few minutes after launch."

Hmmm, sounds like some of my past dates...

Anyway, I feel disappointed, wanted to see Aegis in action.  Oh well.

Obama will say many stern sounding things, then drop to his knees and beg the Nork's to be nice and send boatloads of gifts courtesy of the US taxpayer...

NORK Missile Launch FAIL

The word is out everywhere now that the Norks big missile launch was a disaster.

The very first thing that came to my mind was that this is a much greater reflection on the Iranians (who are reported to have supplied the Norks with their missile tech) than on the Norks. Or do I have that backwards? Is the Iranian missile tech based on Nork designs? Either way...not good for Iranians.

And, to expand on that theme...

If this is any example of Iranian missile tech, what does this say about Iranian nuke tech?

EDIT: Damn, I looked everywhere but in this category before starting my own thread. Oh well, Charles showed me the error of my ways and I merged it.

In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

Jeesh!  Kim Jong Un(sane) has gotten more UnSane since his launch pad missfire!

“the days of enemies threatening and blackmailing us with nuclear weapons are forever over.” Goose-stepping soldiers, mobile rocket launchers and tanks rumbled through the streets below in a celebration broadcast on state television.

What a maroon!
