North Korea launches long-range missile
Let me be the first to ask the obvious question: Is this the provocation that Joe Biden predicted would occur early in the Obama presidency? And did Biden not say that Obama's response would be unpopular?
I would suppose that Joe B. and others like him hope that we'll begin to think about murdering people in other countries instead of thinking about all the people WITHIN America that are murdering other Americans and then killing themselves.
Obama is all too happy host the funeral for the United States superpower status. First, the death of the dollar at the G-20 meeting, and now the total inability to enforce UN sanctions.
The response to date to that launch was that the administration declined to try to shoot the thing down. Which was correct, IMO. (No need to prove again that our missile defenses don't work.)
And, surprisingly, that WAS unpopular, at least among the bellicose commentators.
More likely, based on on-going reports from the nascent Israeli government under Netanyahu, is that the provocation Biden warned about will be the Israeli attack on Iran.
Why are we worried about tin horn aging dictators in puny countries with ego problems and their feeble missiles which will fall into the ocean long after any of us are still alive?
Can they or we get any more pathetic?
We don't need our fake missile shields because their launches will never reach our shores. Can we stop the charade already?
Korea needs to man up and face it... No one cares about their impotency issues.
I'm still reasonably certain Biden was talking about what we used to call Big Wedding II, with Iran to be labeled as the culprit. I think Biden was suggesting that Obama would refuse to invade Iran after the beginning of the "ceremony."
I also think Biden is a complete moron, (even more so if Biden honestly believes Obama would do anything other than carry a theoretical Big Wedding II straight on to its inevitable conclusion).

Your worries will vanish as soon as you realize they're based on a belief in Joe Biden's ability to predict the future.
