Orgil, you and the Dullster should have great joy posting past one another.

But there were some news that n.k.'s were trying to sell gps jammers to iranians which with effective protection range of 150km.

That would be great fun watching all the drivers totally up the proverbial, and most not having a clue as to map reading (let alone carrying a map).

I wonder with that gps jammer anyone might confuse modern smart bombs and cruise missiles with few tens of miles off target.

Not knowing how the jammer works, Im wondering if an encyption code saying disregard all other gps singals but our own.

I remember watching some north korean documentary just few years after magnificient first IBM desktop pc release that n.k.'s were producing closer kind of desktops. Plus considering at least thousand members of n.k. spy networks all over japan and s.k. they might have some up to date access to latest american tech exports to those countries.

Regarding the US holding off on food aid, as I understand it that aid was offered in exchange for NK not doing what it just tried to do. So the choice was that of the NK.

Aside from that, it strikes me that NK is China's 'client state' and the China does not want NK to collapse (both because China does not want an additional flood of NK refugees over the border in to China and would not be happy to see Korea united under the South Koreans). China has the resources and the location to readily offer food aid to NK, it should be on them to offer it.

A dreadful indictment on the North Korean leaders to spend what little money they have on developing nuclear weapons, rocketry and the standing forces and leaving a significant percentage of their population near starvation.

It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues

It's a shame the people are starving in NK. Otherwise this would be funny

Yes, it's sad that withholding food aid is the only thing the US can do about the situation.

any jammer is a transmitter, therefore a target.

The Korean Rocket escape attempt was thrwarted by the supreme leaders sub-par
engineering skills.

Point - but perhaps we'll see a rant mode....

So I'm waiting for some misguided miscreant to claim that the rocket was sabotaged by the Americans or the Israeli's.

No need to encourage MG. He'll do that soon enough on his own.

The surprising thing is they haven't managed to get it right yet.

It does expose the propaganda that NK is the source of Iran's technology.

so.. successful test of satellite laser systems? ;)

LOL...you beat me to it.
I was just gonna say..at least nobody had to shoot it down.

Or did they?

No one would be saying anyway.

Actually, I am a little surprised that NK has not played that card.

That rocket is mostly russian technology given the fact that last year 2 or 3 russian satellite rockets failed in russia even 1 was carrying 2 glonass (russian gps) satellites.
