North Korea rocket fails early in flight

By Christian Oliver in Seoul, Geoff Dyer in Washington and Reuters

North Korea has launched a long-range rocket, but Japan and South Korea said the missile failed early in flight, with broken pieces falling into the Yellow Sea off the Korean peninsula.

South Korea and the US Pentagon confirmed that the Eunha-3 (Galaxy) rocket went up at 7.39am local time on Friday morning. But Seoul and Tokyo later said the missile appeared to break apart within minutes.

It's a shame I wanted the locals to have a shot at it with their completely ineffective American anti missile system.

The SAS quite obviously took it out for no other reason than they are THE best in the world, EVER, and they can

News release by PRNK " Today is another wonderful day in the development of The Peoples Republic of North Korea. Our scientists had observed an accretion of sea Algae which gave signs of being hostile towards the Immortal Leader. It was decided to smash this accretion with the Iron Fist of Destruction From the Skies. The whole effort of the People was harnessed in order to produce a rocket so powerful that other Algae might be to terrified to threaten the Immaculate Pie Eater of The Peoples Republic. Today, this dream has been realised, this patch of hostile Algae and several others nearby have been destroyed utterly. Let that be a warning to all that we will not stand idly by.

And finally,tonight....

As way of celebration, today, The Peoples Rice Store will be doubling the rice issue to 4 grains per Party Member on production of the valid,signed 38 page Rice Allocation Request Application.

joke regime.

On the contrary, regimes like this should be taken very seriously when they have both the power and the brains to do some seriously foolish things.
Beware the drunk with a gun .... = unpredictable = no joke!!

There is an obscene amount of propaganda in Western media in regards to North Korea because the West fears anything that is undemocratic. Most people including the people in this thread hate the North Korean regime and they're not sure why.

The reality is that North Korean politics is very similar to Chinese and just because it is undemocratic doesn't mean that is it wrong. North Korea might seem hostile, but do you blame it when you consider how it is being treated & threatened by considerably richer and more powerful countries who want to see it dismantled asap - such as Japan, USA and South Korea.

All North Korea wants is to be left alone.

Western propaganda portrays N. Korea as a corrupt, genocidal, breacher of human rights who would nuke South Korea given the chance - but this is simply not true, far from it.

North Korea has always said it aims for a peaceful resolve with the South but without American influence, unfortunately South Korea can't accept those terms as it has become so Americanised and reliant on American trade.

The North Korean people are poor like much of the world- there are infamous pictures of North Korean child starving, but the media neglect to mention this was following a devastating flood and famine which lasted years. But partly thanks to Chinese support, North Korea is becoming an increasingly impressive nation in regards to technology, education and even sport as we saw in the previous World Cup! The people of North Korea are extremely proud and patriotic, and would willingly & literally die for their country - all 25 million of them. The government wants the best for its people, it is equally proud & patriotic - and considering the very limited resources it is doing a very good job of it.

Once the world leaves North Korea alone, it will no longer be a dangerous nation. The "Juche" philosophy is all about self sufficiency and self reliance, of course if it is continually threatened it will retaliate with a war of words, and prepare for an actual war - a war that no army in the world could win (without the use of a Nuclear weapon) and the US & South Korea/Japan knows this, hence the propaganda!

Leave N. Korea alone!

Test firing unpredictable rockets across Asia is not the best way to be saying " leave us alone, we are happy as we are ".
