North Korea fires missiles into adjacent sea

The NorKs are just trying to ensure they get some attention. They are jealous of all the attention the Iranians are getting! Now that the US has set up anti-missile defenses all over the region, these little missiles are not much of a threat anymore. Thanks to President Bush. One of his few successes that I can praise him for. He is slipping in my personal polls almost every time he opens his mouth lately.

North Korea fires missiles into adjacent sea - International Herald Tribune: "North Korea fired several short-range missiles into the sea between the Korean Peninsula and Japan on Friday, as talks on ending the Communist state's nuclear weapons programs were stalling over a banking dispute between Pyongyang and Washington.

North Korea has fired short-range missiles regularly over the past few years in moves that officials and analysts in the region say were aimed at escalating tensions when Pyongyang's negotiations with the outside world have not proceeded to its advantage.

Such tests rattle the region, which has grown increasingly worried about Pyongyang's ability to develop long-range missiles. Still, North Korea may be years away from mastering the technology of tipping its missiles with nuclear warheads, U.S. and South Korean officials say."
