North Korea to Launch Satellite

STORY:

The news was announced on North Korea's KRT news.
 
[KRT newscast, March 12]:
"The DPRK informed international organizations of necessary information for the safe navigation of planes and ships."

North Korea said it has acceded to an international treaty on space exploration regarding the launch by not giving an official date.  A North Korean official has been quoted in South Korea's Yonhap news agency as saying the launch would be between April 4-8.

This latest development adds to mounting tension on the divided Korean peninsula.  North Korea has said it is on the edge of war, though many analysts doubt Pyongyang would send its poorly equipped military into a direct
attack on the South.

The United States said on Wednesday March 11 that it could pursue a range of options against the state if it launches the long-range missile, including tougher U.N. sanctions.

But in reality the North faces little risk of punishment if its goes ahead with the launch.  It is likely that China and Russia would use their Security Council veto power to block extra sanctions.

If North Korea did launch a ballistic missile, it would violate a U.N. Security Council resolution that forbids Pyongyang from further nuclear tests or ballistic missile launches.




South Korean officials say that the North has been assembling a Taepodong-2 at a missile base on its east coast. The missile was still indoors but once set vertically and moved to a launch pad, it could be fired off in about seven to ten days, experts have said.

The missile has the capability of reaching Alaska.

Your water is being poisoned , your food is being g em'd to resist round up ., fluorination of your drinking water .. oil spills ..Korea ? ..i think not ! Agent Orange .. irradiated weapons in Afghanistan ..Korea ? wrong again ! The enemy is within !

Forget about the threat of nuclear war . Corporate giants have been waging chemical and biological war upon the general population for , at least , the last 60 years !

Aspartame , sodium fluoride , G.M.O.foods , mercury laced vaccines , all have an inhibiting affect on the brain , all are carcinogenic .

This is a war of attrition , a war you can fight , once you have been informed and know the truth . Wage war now ! Free your brain from toxins , detoxify your bodies . Mike Adams & Dr Oz know !

The Anglo, Israeli, American Empire is now beating its chest at Iran , sending in its decommissioned US Enterprise , to provoke retaliation . No doubt , planning to blow it up ( echo's of Pearl Harbour and 9/11 ) and blame it on Iran .Like an obvious chess move , you know what's coming next .

As long as we have nuclear weapons it's not a matter of if they're used, it's a matter of when.

So much noise about North Korea and it happens that the ONLY ONE nation that has ever actually used nuclear bombs against another Nation is................

Yes, you've got it right those  same ones that talk about Human Rights, Democracy , Peace ,Fairness, Others Terrorism ,etc,etc,etc...... 240 000 people mostly civilians killed in two blasts !

So....North Korea should not fear an attack like that ?...facts are facts !.

Why does humans always talk about who is more powerful? Who is the best? Think of this if nature will react then show his hidden power like what happened to JAPAN? Then what? could any nuclear weapons prevent those things to happen? It is not the Human that will end the evilness of the world there would be someone else. Whatever is our beliefs about this matter, but everyone should think on his self what if the world on itself show his madness? Would you dare to talk about our differences?

Launching satellite while thousands of people are dying for malnutrition and starvation. For what? To use against enemies, to annihilate them all. Then get there foods and resources. Isn't a bright evil idea? They said life begins after death... and in war you should accept losses. North Korea is a war nation but not there entire people just there leaders. Starvation is just like going to war your not sure if until when you will last.
