Weapon may be launched when S. Korea prez visits DC
(NEWSER) - North Korea is preparing to launch another intercontinental ballistic missile, according to South Korean media reports. Pyongyang is said to have moved its most advanced missile, whose 4,000 mile range puts Alaska within striking distance, to a brand-new launch pad and has forbidden ships from sailing the waters off its west coast. Several papers suggested that the launch might take place around June 16, when President Obama will welcome the South Korean president to the White House. More»
