North Korea fires missile over Japan

These last few years are certainly an interesting time to be alive 😂.

It travelled 4000km and over Japan. Surely gives Japan the justification to respond with strikes to take out NK silos and arms factories

It’s not as if fat boy Kim could do with feeding his citizens.

You must be joking. Biggest threat to the entire world that lad. I’d assume it’s a response to the Ukraine doing better than Kim thought they would, him being a Russian allie and all.

basically waving his dick around going “look what I can do boys”

both dangerous and idiotic. What a combination.

There have always been interesting times in relations between Japan and Korea. People in Ireland would have been blissfully unaware in the past about the troubles that went on. Until the curse or the blessing of modern communications, which can make some people worry about stuff they wouldn't have known about before.

In general there were much more interesting times in the past, if interesting is measured in war, famine and pestilence.

There's human nature for you. You won't have seen any better version in the past, and it is not going to change in the future.

Better times to be alive now than much of the past. If you think that getting to the age of 80 is an improvement over being gone by the age of 30. Of course you have to be born in the affluent West, to have the best chances in life.

There is plenty having a giggle about it sure, I even poke fun at ol King Jin whats'it myself, but, if someone fires a missile over Ireland what we say about that? An element of seriousness needs to be taken about what North Korea is doing. If Russia was to set off a test device of some kind soon North Korea would start doing the same [not trying to hide the test that is] and then so too would others, it's a nasty precedent for the world.

Send Mick Wallace & Clare Daly over to intercept the next one they launch. win, win.

We all know who the biggest threat to the entire world is and it's certainly not him.

“We all know”

I don’t. Who?

he’s without doubt one of the biggest threats to the entire world. He’s unhinged, dangerous, has no regard for international law or human rights and has a rake of nuclear weapons at his disposal.

I wonder what would be the threshold where Japan would actually respond militarily ?

It's that dilemma of deterrence.

Don't want to cause something bigger, but don't want to give NK the green light to keep doing this sort of thing. If I was a Japanese resident, I'd imagine I'd be pretty concerned. If somebody is aiming missiles in your general direction, things can easily go wrong.

Missing the point completely. They have demonstrated that they can hit anywhere inside the range of yesterdays missile with a nuclear weapon. Wake Island is within the range. Any carrier fleet is also in danger.

That Kim Jong un lad must be an attention whore. Only thing is he does not have all the media around laughing at his every stupid action like Trump did.
