Thats important because its showing that their missile program is growing. but if they wanted to literally show that they had a successful launch, what theyre most concerned about is something called a cold launch. thats with solid fuel versus liquid fuel in the rocket. i dont mean to turn into a geek here but what it does, it allows the north koreans to pull a missile out and fire it immediately because its been prefueled as opposed to taking a missile on the launch pad and then taking a lot of...

Started a secret program to sabotage with electronic warfare north koreas missile program. "the times" writes "the norths launch failure rate has been extraordinarily high since mr. obama first accelerated the program." do you think u.s. covert action is the reason why this missile launch failed? >> you know, i think theres a couple of possibilities, thats one of them, but i would say that we shouldnt take too much comfort, because even in failure, this program continues to advance, and they wil...

Media that china has been much more supportive of north koreas listed missile program from fragrance of a missile that went down to the east china sea. there was a lot of information that shows how connected china has been. and the only way to affect the, really, is to convince him that a reunited korea will not have american troops on the river looking across into china. it happens, we do not want to be on the river anyway. there is a deal here. one of the reasons i think we are still pressed n...
