    I don’t think the U.S. leaders watch enough TV and movies. Clearly she is the real psycho in the family.

          So the western news went - North Korea launched a completely non functional and useless satellite and for some reason we object to that.

            Space junk is pollution, it’s bad for scientists who study space as well as space photographers, and it’s extremely dangerous for astronauts. I don’t know why we wouldn’t object to this.

              yea right!

              I’m sure north Korea launching A satellite pollutes more than all the launches from US combined.

                I also think the US should be launching less stuff. The difference either way is that the US is putting up functional items with thrusters to help it move around and avoid obstacles while North Korea is putting up junk that will just ram into stuff.

                Notably, the US has always been hypocritical, calling them out for that doesn’t actually mean anything anymore. Everyone knows the US sucks already, this time they just happened to suck and be right about how we shouldn’t be letting nonfunctioning hazards be launched into space.

                  okay so what if their launch was a failure? they are allowed to try and fail. they might learn from this and launch again and have something useful.

                  Why is North Korea condemned for doing absolutely normal activities every state engages in?

    Some country leaders deserve to get assassinated.

    Some deserve to not even try to seek alternate diplomatic tactics.

    And some, namely the whole Kim family, don’t deserve for us to even WANT to try to be peaceful.

    I mean they’re seemingly not dangerous, but the way they run their own country still earns this treatment. And they need to be killed twice if they do become dangerous.

      The only real problems we have to think about is with what should we torture their evil ass before we finally drag them down strip naked to the people they’ve tortured.

        And what will that accomplish? The Kim family are horrible leaders, but this comment is unhinged. Torture will not undo anything they’ve done.

          Terrible people try to focus their demented fantasies on other terrible people so they can pretend they’re actually good and just.

    Has the UN banned DPRK specifically from launching satellites? It seems like they are saying they are not negotiating their right to do what other countries also have the right to do (launch satellites)
