North Korea launched a long-range missile a couple of days ago and the war hawks went ape over it. We have noticed the war hawks go ape over just about anything. In fact, they're so easy to scare, you could send a robot mouse to the GOP convention and clear the place out in five minutes flat. If you do it, use a robo cam because it would be hilarious to watch.
It's a fuckin' mouse! Run for yer chicken lives!
The actual consequence of the launch was two objects in orbit, one presumed to be the satellite and the other is the final stage booster. That seems sloppy space work that the booster did not drop back out of orbit but that's the report at present.
Note: there's more junk in orbit than in the attic of your Aunt Harriet's house. Putting more up there without an exceptional reason is seriously bad form.
The war hawks are fretting and telling us this is a test for delivering nuclear weapons. We have one tiny detail on that for the war hawks, tho: the strategic missiles do not go orbital. If this was testing a military delivery system, they chose a singularly stupid way to do it.
(Ed: with the right electronics, a satellite could bomb anywhere in the world)
Take another look at it, Dagwood. North Korea only needs to drop a nuke on Japan and the world goes up in smoke. It doesn't take multiple orbits of the Earth to do that.
So y'all can go on frettin' it with the sweaties but we will get to building that robo mouse.
(Ed: with a cam?)
Definitely with a cam. We will live stream it. You won't be able to buy comedy like this when the generals squeal like girls ... a mouse, a mouse! They didn't have these at West Point!
Fuckin' general war hawks ... they're good at bangin' secretaries but not much else.

This isn't a "war hawks" fear mongering issue, this is straight from the UN Security Council which, as we all know, includes both China and Russia.
Here are the specific resolutions pertaining to North Korea:
https://www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/UN-Security-Council-Resolutions-on-North-Korea
The fact is, DPRK continues to conduct nuclear tests in violation of these resolutions, and they continue to conduct ballistic missile tests in violation of these resolutions. When you combine the two, their intent is pretty clear. The facts remain, they have the capability to deliver a nuclear warhead to half of the continental US. With this technology, their partner - Iran - has the ability to deliver a nuclear warhead to the other half of the US.
Note that China is no innocent in this. The funding and exchange of prohibited technologies flows through Chinese banks.
Now, speaking as a war-hawk (and I'm pretty sure you know where I stand on dealing with DPRK and Iran,) I find UN resolutions to be a total waste of time and effort. Would I advocate taking out DPRK's nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities? Yes, in a heartbeat. Would that upset China? Of course, however by our doing nothing we automatically give China the upper hand. We need to demonstrate resolve, not talk about it in a building on 1st Avenue that would be better served as a NYC homeless shelter.
That NK blob is a Conniving Clown with a Special Dispensation from God and those phenotypes are insufferable wherever they arise but they have one thing in common: they're not suicidal.
NK blog knows if he launches against the US, the entire ground layer of NK will be melted before his rockets clear the launch tower. He couldn't possibly launch enough of them to be a serious threat to defenses here and submarine nukes will smoke him before he finishes his champagne toast.
It makes no sense for China to do it either and they didn't last ten thousand years because of any suicide missions. As for any innocents ... y'all let this out of the bottle and now you're pissed others play with it.
For enough silos to be militarily-significant, the satellites will see it and Russia will have as much reason to snuff him as US. That leads inevitably to a gang bang with NK on the receiving end of it.
Besides, I haven't seen convincing evidence yet he really did blow up a nuke as I saw multiple questions on whether it was real. I didn't follow it much, tho.
