North Korean plans to launch its Unha-3 rocket

North Korea plans to launch its Unha-3 rocket this week despite international pressure. Seem that NK it's saying this rocket it's carrying a satellite. Okay, right no nukes either.

The UN will just do what they do best and just drop sanctions.

Shouldn't you have said, "There are around 23,000,000 of them, ya know."?

Well, there is that.

And as far as DPRK rocket science goes, there is this:


North Korea defied international warnings of censure and further isolation on Friday, launching a rocket that the United States and its allies called a provocative pretext for developing an intercontinental ballistic missile that might one day carry a nuclear warhead.

But in what was a major embarrassment to the North and its young new leader, the rocket disintegrated moments after the launching, and American and Japanese officials said its remnants fell harmlessly into the sea.

And so it goes...
