Japan today threatened to shoot down a satellite that North Korea plans
to launch early next month if it shows any signs of striking its territory.
Tokyo's warning that it would deploy its multibillion-dollar missile
defence system raised tensions in the region after North Korea said that
it had identified a potential "danger area" near Japanese territory
along the rocket's flight path.
The regime told the International Maritime Organisation that the missile
would be launched during daylight between 4 and 8 April, and that its
boosters would fall into the Sea of Japan – about 75 miles (120km) from
Japan's north-west coast – and the Pacific Ocean.

CHANGE YOU CAN COUNT ON!!

No problem. I am sure that when Obama and Hillary ask nicely, Korea
won't launch the missile.

Get our secret weapon out of mothballs... Call Jimmy Carter on them.

But I thought the missile defense system does not work? If it does not
work, what has North Korea have to worry about?
