Missiles

In the shocker analysis of the day, it has been claimed that North Korea's missile launch into the Japanese Sea early this morning had political implications and was not a military exercise. Wow.

The fact remains, despite this shocking expose, that North Korea has seriously escalated their position and apparently intends to continue. What is the best way to pursue this conundrum, and how much do we really know? Bush wants Kim Jong Il to somehow fall from power, but by their own estimation North Korea may be ready to launch nuclear weapons by this coming July.
