North Korea’s most recent stunt was a missile launch over Japan, stunning the inhabitants and striking fear in those living in or in nations surrounding North Korea. The Article covers that North Korea’s goal is to make such tests a norm and use the Pacific Ocean as its own ballistic missile training ground. Such tests have been predicted to be the next step in Kim’s overall plan to develop reliable intercontinental ballistic missiles that could reach deep into the US mainland.

Earlier in the month North Korea threated to fire the same type of missile that went over Japan, near areas around Guam. The article also cited that missile tests from North Korea are becoming more advanced and more frequent, while the major international community are doing less and less to do something about it, causing it to become a normal occurance. The article also explains that most experts state that North Korea will most likely continue their pace of weapons tests until they have perfected intercontinental ballistic missile technology. Until then the United states will have trouble inciting any interest to engage in serious talks with Kim. It is said that once North Korea has a real nuclear detterent against the US it will demand an end certain drills taking place in South Korea as well as a withdrawal of US troops along the boarder.
