okok. i know it's been said before, but i truly can't take the nuclear threat from north korea that seriously when such an unfortunate homonym is being bandied about in Serious News Reports.
the latest on north korea's Type-o-dong 2 BALL-istic missile technology.
"[T]he United Nations tumbled into a disarray over how to respond to what President Obama called a “provocative act.” Washington and Seoul said the North Korean rocket launched on Sunday failed to thrust a satellite into orbit...Peter Hayes, director of the Nautilus Institute, a San Francisco-based think tank, said the main motivation behind the launch was “to demonstrate the strength and vitality of Kim Jong Il’s leadership to the military and the population, and for the scientific sector to declare its fealty to Kim Jong Il’s leadership.” ...When North Korea first flight-tested the Taepodong-2, in July 2006, it blew apart 40 seconds after take-off."
don't worry, kim. i hear it happens to all world leaders at some point. doesn't make you any less of a man.
