KIM JONG-UN BOASTS NORTH KOREA CAN HIT ‘ANY TARGET’ IN AMERICA, AND HE MAY JUST BE RIGHT
Weapons experts said the altitude and flight time of Friday’s missile suggested it was significantly more powerful than the July 4 test, with a theoretical range of around 10,000 kilometres (6,200 miles) meaning it might be able to reach east coast US cities like New York, depending on the payload size.

KIM JONG-UN BOASTED OF NORTH KOREA’S ABILITY TO STRIKE ANY TARGET IN THE US AFTER A SECOND ICBM TEST THAT WEAPONS EXPERTS SAID SATURDAY COULD EVEN BRING NEW YORK INTO RANGE -– IN A POTENT CHALLENGE TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Kim Jong-Un may be a funny little man with a crazy bad haircut that no one takes seriously. But just remember, Adolf Hitler was a funny little man with a crazy bad moustache that no one took seriously. Until he invaded Poland, started WWII and killed 6 million Jews along with 6 million other people from various assorted races. If we really want to “learn from history”, it’s just about time to “send a message” to North Korea. And by sending a message, I mean we need to blow up the launch pad the next time they get ready to fire off another missile. Funny little dictators need to be taken seriously. Very seriously.
China condemned the test but US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Beijing and Moscow bore “unique responsibility” for the growing threat posed by the reclusive North. Under Kim’s leadership North Korea has accelerated its drive towards a credible nuclear strike capability, in defiance of international condemnation and multiple sets of UN sanctions.
Kim said the test “is meant to send a grave warning to the US” and demonstrated the North’s ability to launch “at any place and time,” the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said.
The “leader said proudly the test also confirmed all the US mainland is within our striking range,” it said. Trump denounced the launch as “reckless and dangerous” and rejected Pyongyang’s claims that such tests helped ensure its security.
“The United States will take all necessary steps to ensure the security of the American homeland and protect our allies in the region.”
