Satellite Images Show North Korea Dismantling Ballistic Missile Launch Site

Breitbart:

An analysis published by the monitor site 38 North on Monday using satellite imagery of North Korea’s Sohae Satellite Launching Station finds that authorities appear to be dismantling key areas of the site, limiting North Korea’s ability to launch ballistic missiles.

The facility reportedly plays a key role in the development of rockets and missiles – not of nuclear material – so its apparent partial shutdown may mean that communist dictator Kim Jong-un may have a diminished interest in long-range missiles. The dismantling of such a site does not necessarily mean that short-range targets such as South Korea and Japan are safe from launches, or that North Korea may not possess other secret sites to launch missiles from.

According to analyst Joseph S. Bermudez, Jr., satellite images dated July 20 reveal that North Korean authorities have brought construction materials into the site and begun dismantling necessary structures to launch rockets and missiles. Bermudez notes the destruction of the rail-mounted processing building (“where space launch vehicles are prepared before moving them to the launch pad”) as particularly notable, as this makes long-range launches at the site impossible.  more here

  1. But… there’s no celebrating until a dictator is dragged thru the streets with a bloody asshole and strung from a tree so we can post lawn signs and signal how happy we are at ending such a “horrific problem” that doesn’t affect our lives one bit. If that happened on DJT’s watch, the act itself would be a horrific problem and we’d have lawn signs protesting for the rights of an actual evil dictator. Kill him, Trump, I wanna watch socialist assholes side with a crazy fucker. Satellite images proving added security to the world don’t get socialists out of bed.
