What the world knows: the rocket failed, they suck again.

Thats a pretty bad black eye for NK.
FAILURE of their rockets is in deed GOOD NEWS to the World of Peace .... So much for using it as a "celebration" of the 100th birthday of a former dictator.

This was a golden opportunity for the USA to test that new laser system designed to burn holes in rockets and destroy its structural integrity.... Hummm

I'm confused. They can build a nuclear weapon, but not a rocket? Does anyone else thinks that's a little backwards?
...what were we all concerned about??
