NOKO Missile Politics

North Korea does not do a lot without China approving it.  This time they sent what was called an ICBM into the Sea of Japan.  An ICBM can travel a good bit further than that, so we only have some missile experts to say it is really an ICBM.  I did look like one, in fact it looked a good bit like an old Chinese missile, which it probably was.  While China loves to say that it is trying to restrain the North, the proof of that is in the actions the North actually takes.  Shooting off a string of missiles and raising the stakes is exactly what the Chinese want, otherwise it would not be happening.

For those worried about an attack by these idiots, I don’t think we have very much to worry about.  The United States is a big country and anyone wanting to engage us would have to drop a few weapons on big cities - but then they would have to duck because missiles would be coming back their way pretty quickly.  There are not as many targets in the North, so the ones there are will be taken out pretty quickly.    Nobody day can convince me that the North does not care.  They will cease to exist as a country.  China will not have to worry about unification or lots of people coming across the border.

The South may have something to say about a strategy that blows up the North, as will China.  Radiation follows the wind.
