North Korea fired a suspected intermediate-range ballistic missile toward the sea on Sunday, South Korea’s military said, two months after the North claimed to have tested engines for a new harder-to-detect missile capable of striking distant U.S. targets in the region.

The launch was the North’s first this year. Experts say North Korea could ramp up its provocative missile tests as a way to influence the results of South Korea’s parliamentary elections in April and the U.S. presidential election in November.

    Like anyone would be interested in that shit hole.

    Nuclear weapons work best if you don’t use them as a threat every other week.

      Number of nuclear weapons in Iraq = 0. Number of times Iraq has been invaded = 2

      Number of nuclear weapons in North Korea = >1. Number of times NK has been invaded = 0.
