CHILL FOLKS:     Teopodong, Teapodong ... sounds like the same 'ol song. But yes,
North Korea did attempt to fire a rocket into space, however, it's believed it failed to exit Earth's  atmosphere.

The #MustacheChickenLittle (#JohnBolton) neo-cons types, are crying fowl that North Korea has fired a rocket that was purported to have contain a satellite. However, Western powers, including the U.S., mobilized their military tracking systems to dissect the signature of the North Korean "Teapodong" scud rocket.  But, the excitement and hubris from Western powers went to pot, when the Teapodong scud rocket sputtered from the launch pad and soon thereafter - fell apart.  Nonetheless, Western powers will demand from the #UN to issue condenmation for this perceived military provocation.

Clearly, this act by North Korea is simply a little-show for its own public consumption and not a credible military threat to any Western power or North Korea's Asian neighbors.  The issue here is an intolerance by Western powers to not allow unfriendly regimes build their own technology.  Have you ever witnessed a young child throw a tantrum? If left alone or not pay attention to such silly act, the child is more likely to stop.  Give it attention and the tantrum will proliferate.

Should North Korea or Iran have the right to build long range missiles? Ideally, all military missiles should be destroyed and all nations with mighty technology should be role models for rouge nations by destroying all military weapons which threatens mankind.  Therefore, we should not be so hypocritical in pointing the finger at other nations, while Western powers, including the US, harbor unlimited offensive military weapons.
