Should North Korea test an ICBM?

And, even if they do is it any business of the US?

It'd be a hoot.

...to protect themselves from the brutal, barbarous, uncivilized nation that Amerika has become...be afraid world, be very afraid.

It has been good for a laugh, however. :D

...of defense by mutually assured offensive destruction. I think anyone down range of a North Korea with ICBMs needs to ask what conflict they anticipate that requires that sort of delivery capability, and work to avert it. I think that any country deploying ICBMs represents either mad power lust, or failed international diplomacy.

I do think it's U.S. "business" to be concerned about any country's deployment of ICBMs. I also think that the U.S. is directly responsible for much of the international tensions that led to this development, and that it has deliberately avoided seeking constructive solutions, preferring threats and bombast to honest negotiations with Pyongyang. This is the neocon style-- the neocons lust for the good old days of the cold war when men were men and they had their fingers perpetually on nuclear triggers to prove it.

It's an important part of their future moon program.

I think, someday, they'll screw around, shooting rockets over Japan or someplace else, like they're so fond of doing, the thing will fall out of the sky and hurt somebody, and then get their asses handed to them by Japan, China or US.

After all this B.S. N.Korea will cease to exist because part of a missle fell into a school yard in Japan. -JJ
