"If confirmed, it would be the North’s first cruise missile launch in about three years,'
Was this ever confirmed?
“North Korea wants to create and maintain tensions, but still aims to prevent those tensions from growing too much and pressuring the U.S. a lot,”

@mott-the-hoople saidNo, they just have nuclear weapons and the ability to launch them from submarines.

@mott-the-hoople saidObama certainly got filthy rich while president. He had a net worth of barely over a million as a senator, 8 years later he was worth 80 million on a salary of 400k/yr.....not bad for a guy that was a low life "community organizer" in Chicago a few years before taking office..

"North Korea unveiled what appears to be a new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) at a big military parade in Pyongyang Saturday, and it's huge.
During the military parade held in Kim Il-Sung Square in the heart of the North Korean capital to mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of the ruling Worker's Party, North Korea's military rolled out a massive, previously-unseen ICBM on a transporter erector launcher (TEL) with a total of 22 wheels.
The missile appears to be the largest road-mobile, liquid-fueled missile, Ankit Panda, a Stanton Senior Fellow in the Nuclear Policy Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, tweeted Tuesday.
Melissa Hanham, a missile expert and the deputy director of the Open Nuclear Network, said the missile was "Huuuuge," adding that the missile is potentially capable of carrying Multiple Independent Reentry Vehicle [MIRV] nuclear warheads, a capability North Korea has not yet demonstrated."
"The powerful weapon was unveiled just a few months after the country tested its first ICBM, the Hwasong-14, in July 2017. Analysts said they believe the Hwasong-15 could theoretically strike anywhere in the continental US."

So North Korea has nuclear weapons, it has the capability to fire them from submarines AND they have ICBMs that can hit the continental US.
Kudos to Trump's great success in his negotiations with them (for which you wanted to give him a Nobel Peace prize before you wanted to give him the same for ending the nonexistent war between the UAE and Israel).
