North Korea tests its largest (so far) rocket launcher. Fatty Kim da T\u2019ird is pleased. Everyone gets an extra two grains of rice for dinner next week.<\/p>\n

From the August article:\u00a0 SEOUL, South Korea \u2014 North Korea said Sunday (8\/25) that leader Kim Jong Un supervised the test-firing of a \u201cnewly developed super-large multiple rocket launcher,\u201d another demonstration of the North\u2019s expanding weapons arsenal apparently aimed at increasing its leverage ahead of a possible resumption of nuclear talks with the U.S.<\/p>\n

The North’s official Korean Central News Agency, or KCNA, said that Saturday’s weapons test was successful and cited Kim as saying the rocket launcher is “indeed a great weapon.”<\/p>\n

Kim underscored the need to “continue to step up the development of Korean-style strategic and tactical weapons for resolutely frustrating the ever-mounting military threats and pressure offensive of the hostile forces,” according to KCNA.<\/p>\n

The \u201chostile forces\u201d likely referred to the United States and South Korea, whose recently ended regular\u00a0military drills infuriated North Korea<\/a>. The North has called the drills an invasion rehearsal and conducted a slew of missile and rocket tests in response. \u2013 article<\/p>\n

However, the most recent release from north of the DMZ is that the Norks are continuing with testing an that big old rocket launcher, as follows:<\/p>\n

From the article:\u00a0 SEOUL, South Korea \u2014 North Korea said Friday the latest test-firing of its \u201csuper-large\u201d multiple rocket launcher was a final review of the weapon\u2019s combat application, a suggestion that the country is preparing to deploy the new weapons system soon.<\/p>\n

\n

South Korea\u2019s military earlier said North Korea fired two projectiles, likely from the same \u201csuper-large\u201d rocket launcher, on Thursday. It expressed \u201cstrong regret\u201d over the launches and urged North Korea to stop escalating tensions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On Friday, the North\u2019s Korean Central News Agency confirmed the launches were made with the presence of leader Kim Jong Un and other top officials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThe volley test-fire aimed to finally examine the combat application of the super-large multiple launch rocket system proved the military and technical superiority of the weapon system and its firm reliability,\u201d KCNA said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It said Kim expressed \u201cgreat satisfaction\u201d over the results of the test-firing. – article<\/p>\n

Now, remember, this is to let the South and the US of A know that he’s ready for a pissing match, no matter what. His engineers are doing an impressive job of developing rocketry. You’d think that he might want to launch a satellite to broadcast Nork News At Nine, but that doesn’t seem to have crossed his mind.\u00a0 He’s spending all his cash on rocketry, while the rest of his world goes hungry.<\/p>\n

I think we should keep our troops there for the duration. Nobody lives forever, you know.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
