Interesting, apparently India launched it's own nuclear missile as well, and it was planned! NEW DELHI (AP) -- India test-fired its nuclear-capable Agni III missile Sunday for the first time, the Defense Ministry said.
The launch took place at India's main missile testing center in the eastern state of Orissa, Defense Ministry spokesman Sitanshu Kar told the Associated Press.
The launch of India's longest-range missile, able to fly 1,865 miles, has been viewed as a routine test -- not saber-rattling with the country's nuclear-armed archrival and neighbor, Pakistan.www.nytimes.com/aponline/world/AP-India-Missile-Test.html?hp&ex=1152504000&en=fe5d1faf7a07a7c5&ei=5094&partner=homepage

Though PROK is whacked, it is hard to deny the double standard here. For our purposes it was really bad timing by India.

It's kind of looking like Japan might take some measures.

It's kind of looking like Japan might take some measures. It's hard to blame them.....

It's just looking more and more like it is not the launching of nuclear missile tests that is bothering USA government but the country that is doing it.
Sure, we can say indeed North Korea is bad and that is why all the attention. However, someone always gets hurt when judgement is so one-sided.
I also think it is pathetic that some countries get to proliferate nuclear weapons because they never signed the treaty.

Big:
На вопрос, почему Россия не перехватила северокорейские ракеты:
Анатолий Перминов, глава Роскосмоса
"Никто их не собирался перехватывать, так как Северная Корея не представила уведомления о запуске ракет, что они должны были сделать."

If they don't tell us, we don't see them.
