North Korea’s puny little dictator aptly nicknamed as WHOA Fat! by Ace of Spades, decided to flex his missiles again and launched an ICBM towards Japan. 

Here’s the deal on this.

This missile went much further and higher than any missile launches in the past.

North Korea has fired another ballistic missile, which flew for 50 minutes, travelling around 620 miles, before landing in Japanese waters.

The missile was launched eastward from Pyongsong in North Korea’s South Pyongan Province in the direction of the Sea of Japan at around 3.30am local time (6.30pm GMT).

South Korean and American officials are currently working together to confirm the missile’s trajectory and Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has ordered an emergency cabinet meeting.

Needless to say, this news isn’t good. Not good at all.

.@POTUS was briefed, while missile was still in the air, on the situation in North Korea.

Meanwhile Japan  responded to the launch.

“A missile was launched from North Korea which appears to have landed within Japan’s exclusive economic zone,” Abe’s office tweeted. “As soon as new information comes in, we will let you know.”

South Korea responded by conducting what is called a ‘precision strike’ missile exercise.

This missile launch takes place two and a half months after the last missile launch.

Keep in mind folks, just because Kim Jong Un goes quiet, doesn’t mean he isn’t plotting.

Number of North Korea missile tests by this day for past 4 years:
2014: 19 tests
2015: 14 tests
2016: 24 tests
2017: 20 tests

This ICBM flew for 50 minutes and went over 2800 miles into space.

Initial US assessment: North Korea missile was an ICBM. It reached an altitude of 4,500km (about 2,800 miles). For context, International Space Station orbits at 408km (253 miles).

In other words, this is NOT good news.

DefSec Mattis said North Korea launched an ICBM…went higher than before.. can threaten everywhere in world basically. Says NK continues efforts to build ICBM that can threaten the US and world.

Japan says ICBM flew for 53 minutes and landed in “exclusive economic zone” waters, 210 km (130 miles) from Japanese coast. The missile flew at a very high altitude of 4,500km (2,800 miles), essentially into space, but traveled a distance of 960km (596 miles).

Furthermore, South Korea issued this statement earlier today prior to the Norks ICBM launch.

South Korean unification minister Cho Myoung-gyon told foreign correspondents in Seoul on Tuesday that North Korea is on the verge of achieving full nuclear capability with an intercontinental ballistic missile that could carry a nuclear warhead, according to Yonhap News Agency.

“North Korea has been developing its nuclear weapons at a faster-than-expected pace. We cannot rule out the possibility that North Korea could announce its completion of a clear force within one year,” Cho said.

It’s highly evident that North Korea has absolutely zero intentions of backing away from their nuclear weapons program. That’s been obvious for the last few years. Yet just yesterday Hillary Clinton blasted both China and President Trump for how they are handling the issues with North Korea. Seems they are supposed to stop with being so blustery and quit taunting that poor little dictator. In fact, China’s secret military buildup is really problematic according to Hillary. The U.S. and China are making things worse according to that failed Presidential candidate.

Uh huh…right. I’d say North Korea launching a major ICBM is a helluva lot more problematic than diplomacy or the lack thereof.

North Korea is dangerous. Make no mistake about it. This ICBM flew higher and further than any before. The reentry issues are problematic for them. However, it’s highly evident that the technology is being fine-tuned.

One of these days a missile launch will be 100% successful. It would be great if North Korea and their pudgy little dictator could be stopped in their tracks before that happens.
