North Korea Says It Has Final Approval For Nuclear Attack On US
This is merely the latest headline in what may well culminate with the wettest dream Paul Krugman has ever had.
#BREAKING: N. Korea army says it has final approval for nuclear attack on US
— Agence France-Presse (@AFP) April 3, 2013
AFP: North Korean Army has approval to launch "mercilesss" nuclear strike on U.S. involving possible use of "cutting edge" nuclear weapons
— Sky News Newsdesk (@SkyNewsBreak) April 3, 2013
For those concerned, here is a map showing the range of North Korean missiles. It is safe to assume that GETCO's collocated servers are safe, and will ramp the ES limit up on any flashing red headline launch news. Just think of the fixed income investment and epic resulting GDP boost, on both a real and seasonally adjusted basis.

Dong to the noodle, bitchez!!!!!!!!
I think we have a miscommunication here; It was supposed to read "they have final approval to drool into cup instead of onto shirt"
Does the Free Market Produce Prosperity? - A Comprehensive Research Paper
There are a number of articles investigating the relationship between deregulation and economic prosperity, but very few studies reference the unintended consequences of laissez faire capitalism. This research paper by Alan Krueger, Obama’s chief economic advisor, suggests that a decrease in the minimum wage could result in a reduction in income[1].
Despite the claims of many libertarians that the free market favors the poor, the academic literature continues to question this proposition. Either this is a strongly contested or under-researched economic issue, or the science has not been widely disseminated amongst economic educators and publicists. This study aims add some clarity to the question of whether the academic literature does in fact support common libertarian beliefs about the virtues of the free market.

i would think by now china knows our fire power......they may feel the time is right to bait the trap, break the back......ya know like the mccullum memo...
Godless commie bastards better not harm ANWAR lest the tree huggers will unleash a fearsome boycott.
"The commie bastard gets no food!"
Final approval from who? Krugman?
china!!!
Unpossible, China wouldn't allow their biggest customer of cheap plastic shit to be nuked.
China is letting their mad dog proxy do their enraged talking.
This endless QE horseshit might fly on CNBS, but if China is internally destabilized there will be war.
Too late. The BIS, IMF, BofE, FDIC, etc. already launched a nuke attack on the US.
Does anyone seriously believe that the Norks are able to nuke North America?
(Unless, of course, there are CIA technicialns there, working on operation False Flag 2013.)
Polar route bitchez
They may have material for a couple rockets but nothing our defense shield couldn't intercept.
Friends or not, the entire Korean peninsula would be obliterated in minutes and China could clean up the mess.
Anyway, time to discuss this with the kids.
Who says they would use rockets? Look, look - over here in my right hand, a fistful of rockets. Don't bother watching those old rusty freighters, or my diesel subs.
Exactly, pre-load it on a freighter, slow & sure.
Or maybe that satellite they launched is a nuke?
Either way, they're glow-in-the-dark toast.
OMFG!!!!

China uses N. Korea to distract US attention away from middle east oil.
US uses Israel to attack last Russian stronghold of Syria.
But China doesn't want Syria to fall which would become a springboard for Iran attack.
Today China surpassed US as world's top consumer of oil.
Make Sense?
Superpowers don't fight wars on their own motherland.
Superpower = UN Security Council = China, USA, Russia, France, UK

Point well taken, but France?
I know how the jokes go but when you look previously to WWI those frenchies were good butchers. Today they can still, in between the wine & cheese, send a mushroom or two.
EMP gives biggest bang for buck. Japan?
Fuck Yeah!

....Newsflash to TPTB and chart makers everywhere....
Once you can put an object in orbit.............most of the world is in range.
EDIT: If your goal is EMP, reentry is minimal and current defenses are negligable.
Could the No-dong have evolved into the Black swan-dong?
The thing to consider here is that US defense companies gave China all kinds of fun technology, including ICBM. NK is a puppet regime of China. Those range estimates assume we're not talking about Chinese (ie., US) tech. That is a tenuous assumption.
As to the concept "they would never do this! we're their best customers!", I think we're forgetting all the tremendous geopolitical and economic advantages they would gain the absence of the petrodollar.
By "defense companies" you mean Bill Clinton.

I'd say North Korean elites have better than bottom 20% of Americans.
I am sure the North Korean Army will get right on this just as soon as they are able to find something to eat.
If the North Koreans launched a missile to land in Los Angeles, it would overfly, almost directly, the route that KAL 007 flew when the Russians shot it down for violating it's airspace.
This is just another distraction from the ponzi slow motion collapse.
Remember a couple of months ago it was Japan versus china.
What next South Africa versus Argentina???
Yaaaaaawn
At least everyone in the US can die laughing at the stupid names of the rockets.
I look forward to Democracy coming to North Korea by blasting the shit out of it. Or a dong unleashing its load.
1. cargo container nuke in a major port
2. truck nuke
3. diesel-fertilizer-cement truck attack on spent fuel pond
Those would all be nice for DHS, as they could blame it on "tea party terrorists" and clamp down.
and buy more bullets
F$cK DHS.
4. blow up Fukushima reactor 4 spent fuel pool.

And let the wind do the rest...
WHY DID THAT DAMN T DONG EXPLODE OVER JAPAN?! oh yeah... SuperEMP straight to the nuts; siyanara world economy!
Obviously, the most honest North Korean missile threat is the No-Dong.

Reminds me of Kumho Korean tires.
Short-dick syndrome may be a motivator there.
They really should have named their largest missile the Rong Dong.
I know a few Kum-Hos in real life. Fun people.
04/03 16:01 EDT BREAKING: North Korean Leadership Approves Nuke Strikes Against US
DPRK statement likely is going to place US attacks subs in region from patrol mode into combat alert mode ready to respond.
On a long enough timeline...
...all web forums devolve into 4chan.
So in that spirit...
...do it, phaggot!
Ballistic missile subs would be more apropos.
Mossad, more likely.
and the winner is-- bingo,
... the 'supernova born'!
Oh please. Like the CIA isn't providing endless streams of false intel to Pyongyang making it look like they're under threat of annihilation. The Norks think they're making defensive gestures and the Western media picks up on their response as if it's an initial threat.
Here we go...
Don't believe everything you hear folks. The Norks aren't insane idiots. In fact, there aren't many nations in history that are hell bent on their own destruction. It's not a very common trait at all. So when someone tells you there's an insane leader, hell bent on his own destruction -- it's better to read betwen the lines.
(ps: Quadaffi wasn't one of those either).

I thought preemptive attacks were supposed to be secret; announcing Un's daily thoughts and horoscope are hardly secret preemptive positioning (ie Cuba).
Is Terrorism (remember that daily word which has all but disappeared?!) passé all of a sudden, or do the sheep need a NEW WOLF?
But what do I know, I'm too stupid and really need to shut the fuck up on such lofty matters and let the scholarly intellectuals which generously breeze through ZH airing their thoughtful mastery and for Australopithecines like me to dangle precariously on every syllable... hey, 'Strannick The Great'?
Try to keep up with the narrative. Osama bin Laden is dead, so Al Qaeda is no longer a direct threat to us. Now, we have to watch out for Rogue States like Syria, Iran and North Korea.
You forgot Cyprus.....or is that another one of my "dumb" statements!
There is no narrative that Cyprus is the enemy.
I am not saying that your statement is dumb; I am saying what the propaganda narrative is.
"So when someone tells you there's an insane leader, hell bent on his own destruction -- it's better to read betwen the lines."
never say "never"
This time may be different.
Nut countries never say "we will destroy ourselves" by the way. That's hyperbole on the poster's part...
They say "we will deliver a crushing blow to the imperialist aggressor" and in a vacuum of rational gainsayers, may even believe it.
During the cuban missile crisis there were "true believers" in Havana who were ready to "out commie" the Russians and head for that Great Collective in the sky...We came "that close" before Russia and Kennedy struck a face saving deal.
you noticed that those rogue states you mentioned dont have a central bank controlled by the hofjuden, right?
Yes, which just goes to show how stabilising central banks are!
/krug (h/t redpill for that instant classic)
controlled by the hofjuden, right?
Why don't you just say what you mean: "I am obsessed with Jews - I can't stop thinking about them."
fuckin north korean jews... worse than illinois nazis...
not with jews in general. just with hofjuden, the perpetrators of financial crimes against humanity, the criminals behind central banks, the thieves running the scam called fractional reserve banking, the money changers that make debt slaves out of unsuspecting victims of usury, the psychopaths that instigate wars to enrich themselves at the expense of innocent victims, the vultures that feast on spoils of wars, etc. i am not asking for too much, just that justice, for the first time in the last two millennia, be done. no guillotines necessary http://tinyurl.com/czegrmg

Okay, so they can hit Kalifornia....why would they nike an ally? I mean really. And let's say they did. The folks out there would have a real bad day, but would Wall Street notice? Well, aside from the increase in durable goods orders and the drop in unemployment....
A nuke can break a lot of windows, it may be just what's needed to turn this economy around!
/Krug
Surly Bear "Okay, so they can hit Kalifornia.."
Where do you see that? According to the chart, the Taepo Dong 2 has the distance but is still in development. So you have no definites there. I recall a few years ago, one of N. Korea's missiles missle tests being a huge failure for just a few hundred miles. There longest operational missile won't even reach Hawaii at this point. And then there is the question of accuracy.
N. Korea is more a concern for Japan and S. Korea. But the concensus seems to be that any attempted nuclear strike would be the end game for N. Korea. They certainly aren't going to invade anyone but S. Korea. Outside of those missles, they have no long range logistics for war.
They don't have to hit us. They already orbited a "package" five months ago. As a "test". As to what that "package" is, is anybody's guess. Well, except for those who put it up there. I'm sure they know. Maybe.

As long as it stops there...
"Blowing Nukes in the Air is enuff to bring us back to stone age."
Us. Them. One of those.
Pretty much the same result if they make the attempt and botch it too. The Maximum Leader will probably, thanks to the EBT-sated American voters, be getting one shot at the history books at some point. But whether the attempt succeeds or fails, that zit will be popped. And we'll be mining glass in North Korea for the next 100 years.

Of course, the important point missed is how the cost of everything drops when the Raw Material prices go down.
Poor labor being just another Raw Material of course.
Only an idiot would think that raising the cost of an RM is good for society, or the "Raw Material". When costs go up, you find alternative materials. When minimum wages go up, you find alternative labor.

No shit! If your labor is not worth the minimum wage then yes your income would go down.
On the other hand those whose labor is worth less than minimum wage and accept the lower wage would see their income increase.
Don't need a PHD to figure that out.
Incidentally, all Obama advisors are Keynesans, also known as economic alchemists or quacks.

MDB,
What universe are you orbiting in.
The topic at hand is NK and nuke stand of. Does anything really matter about free market; if there is such a thing.
Since the topic is North Korea, it appears that what you are advocating is a centrally controlled economy. It does not appear to have brought economic prosperity to the people of North Korea. You may claim that this is due to leadership. However, if you believe in the North Korean way, then you believe that the leader of North Korea is a god. So, are you advocating a change of god?
