The two missile fired were not ICBMs, but ground to ground with a 5 km range. Just rattling the sabers a bit, no big deal.

I just read up on this.. the article I posted earlier was evidently incomplete.

There was a great section on the Daily Show about the Type O Dong missile and how perhaps they should have named it something a little less, well, you know... :)

N. Korea Launches Attack Against Sea of Japan
by Scott Ott

(2006-07-05) — North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il today acknowledged that he had ordered yesterday’s missile strikes against the Sea of Japan in response to what he called “threatening and provocative movements” that the body of water had made against his nation’s coastline.

U.S. sources said that as many seven missiles, including one long-range, short-flight Taepodong 2, penetrated the surface of the sea in a terrifying display of North Korean ballistic technology prowess.

“This clearly demonstrates our status as a global superpower,” said Mr. Kim, “The Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea is quite capable of raining fire from the sky upon any body of water that approaches our shores, or even thinks about it.”

The North Korean leader said the attack should “put other seas on notice that our precision-guided munitions can strike you at any time.”

Meanwhile, China made a “goodwill gesture” aimed at gaining Mr. Kim’s trust and ending the nuclear crisis on the Korean peninsula by offering to provide replacements for the expended missiles.

“The people of North Korea can barely eat,” said an unnamed China spokesman, “So where would they get the money to buy new missiles? We consider this a humanitarian offer.”

Are we really sure the longrange missile failed, or might it have been helped into the sea in some way?

Theoretically, those short range launches were an attempt to decoy our SDI program. If so, they have more confidence in it than we do.

The Korean War is not over.

Officially, all belligerants are still committed. Therefore, I would not think it would take a Security Council vote for hostilities to reconvene.

True?

Sure, but do we want to go to war with China again?

George, could you please explain to me why, when I loaded the animation, the title (according to Real Player) came up Wife Swap?

Would war with China be inevitable?

McArthur did not know whether China would be initially involved in the Korean War, other than supporting the NKA with arms and intelligence. That is why the decision had been made, and was made clear to the Chinese, the U.N forces would not cross the Yalu.

Mac knew China would lose too much face, and would then have to wage war until the bitter end. And in 1950, it would have been a short end since we would have had to nuke China.

That was yesterday, though, I wonder about today?

As long as the Chinese were allowed to "save face" in one way or another, would they turn and look the other way if a UN force rendered the NK nuclear weaponry useless?

U.N. May Threaten Kim Jong-Il with Time Out
by Scott Ott

(2006-07-06) — The United Nations Security Council, outraged at this week’s missile tests by a nuclear-capable North Korea, takes up debate today on a resolution to sanction that nation’s dictator with “one minute of time-out for each missile launched.”

According to a draft resolution being circulated by the Russian ambassador to the U.N., the time-out sanction would mean that North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il would have to “sit still in a comfortable chair with his hands on his knees, and could not speak to anyone for a full seven minutes, unless he has to go to the bathroom, or get a drink, or if he gets a bellyache, at which point the U.N. would be compelled to provide humanitarian aide.”

The resolution calls for a U.N. team to travel to Pyongyang to monitor compliance.

Although the U.S., Japan and South Korea are said to support such an aggressive response, because it would force Mr. Kim to “think about what he has done,” China threatened to wield its veto power.

“Punishment does not correct behavior,” said an unnamed Chinese diplomat, “because the bad behavior springs from low self-esteem, and sanctions would only make Mr. Kim feel worse about himself.”

“We must find ways to catch Mr. Kim doing good things and then praise him for it,” the source said, “and if he continues to launch missiles, it should only increase our sympathy for him.”

A leading U.S. psychologist agreed with the Chinese strategy.

“It’s likely that Mr. Kim had a rough childhood,” said the unnamed expert, “since his Dad spent most of his time at work being revered as a god, and probably never said ‘I love you’ to little Kim.”
