boo!

that's it? that's the missile launch that everyone has talked about for the last few weeks? they put interceptor missiles in hawaii only to have the rockets fall thousands of miles short.

have the north koreans ever done a test that wasn't a whole lot less fearsome than the pre-test hype? maybe these tests are really about the internal power struggles in that country. or maybe they are an attempt to strike fear into the hearts of the foreign community about the NoKo military might. if it is supposed to be the latter, i'm not sure what is so scary about it. quite a lot of countries have missiles with a 500km range.
