Will the North Koreans defy the world and launch a ballistic missile?
North Korean Nuclear Sites
The north Koreans are planning a ballistic missile launch between April 12th and April 16th of this year. Under the Guise of a communications satellite launch, this will bring the North Koreans one step closer towards a ballistic nuclear missile.
Recently, the North Koreans tested a nuclear weapon. To this date, it is unclear whether or not the test was 100% successful. However during the time of the test, tremors were reported from North Korea which was consistent with a nuclear detonation.
This ballistic missile launch is not only a concern for the western world, but Most of the far eastern Asian countries. The projected track of the missile brings its track close to the Philippines and or Indonesian islands. Debris from the missile launch can land on inhabited areas and potentially cause death and property destruction when the carrier falls to earth.
The launch will also jeopardize the agreement the North Koreans have with the west, concerning “food for not launching ballistic missiles” programs.
