#3 Any country, even the US, has to make investment decisions since you cannot fund everything. So the Norks are investing in missiles. Conclusion: Someone is paying them to invest in missiles. So who is (are) the customers, besides Iran?

PS. I kinda liked the auto-generated name: Shirong Turkeyneck1340

#4 When I visited Communist countries, I noted that when presented with a simple question, it took 5 sovietskis to talk about it, before one would answer it. A country with antique communication systems is an open book. A lot of SK talk is purely tactical.

#9 DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > SOUTH KOREA THREATENS TO STRIKE JIM JEOUNG-UN 'S PALACE IFF SEOUL ATTACKED.

BLOGGER/POSTER = the ROK has changed its Policies toward one of Pro-Invasion, + Immediate or Unlimited Mil Retaliation, agz the North for any future North-led mil provocations, ala THE "Chonan" + "Yeongpyeong" Incidents.

IMO, the ROK "Offensive/Aggressive" retaliatory Policy Changes shows that Seoul does recognize, iff only quietly or covertly, the DPRK's increasing vulnerability to DE FACTO CHINESE TAKEOVER, BE IT UNILATERAL BEIJING-ORDERED "REGIME CHANGE" AGZ KIMS, OR FORMAL ANNEXATION AS A CHINESE STATE PROVINCE.

and

* SAME > MORE THAN 40 NORTH KOREAN SOLDIERS DURING YEONGPYEONG BATTLE: YONHAP NEWS.

Looks like the NOKORS feared Artillery = Battery, Counter-Battery fire doesn't rule the DMZ roost after all???

* SAME > DEFECTORS: "SUNSHINE" POLICY PREVENTED NORTH KOREA COLLAPSE. The DPRK = NoKor was on the verge of complete State collapse until "the Policy" came along out from Hell.

versus

* SAME [old] > GOLDMAN-SACHS: UNIFIED KOREA COULD HAVE LARGER ECONOMY THAN FRANCE, GERMANY, + [possibly] JAPAN BY 2050.
