#9 A hundred eighty flights in one month? With what? That's 6 sorties a day. We could map all of North Korea to a scale of 1:1 with that many sorties. I don't doubt there are RC-135s flying in international airspace around Korea, with the best sensors we can devise, but I doubt they're EVER in North Korean airspace.

Fred, I'm amused by that photo - a Navy P-2V with Army markings? Now just where did that bird fly?

#10 Actually, it occurs to me that the whole "shoot down the missile thing" could be a setup to give zero what he wants. N. Korea shoots a missile at the middle of the Pacific between Hawaii and Alaska, we shoot an antimissile at it and it fails, and Zero's "proven" that missile defense doesn't work.
