Hope North Korea likes the taste of rocket exhaust

The U.S. threatens to cut off food aid to North Korea if they go ahead with the planned ballistic missile test rocket launch. Rumors are the will soon conduct another nuclear test. Lets review; launch a rocket that can hit the U.S. and follow it up with a nuclear test. I will give you one guess what message they are trying to send.

The White House bluntly warned North Korea on Tuesday that going ahead with a long-range rocket launch would mean an end to planned American food aid to the secretive and starvation-plagued country.

"It's impossible to imagine that we would be able to follow through (and) provide the nutritional assistance that we had planned on providing, given what would be a flagrant violation of North Korea's basic international obligations," Jay Carney, the White House press secretary, told reporters aboard Air Force One.

North Korea says its rocket launch, expected between Thursday and Monday, aims to put a satellite called Kwangmyongsong-3 (Shining Star) in orbit as it marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of the regime's founder, Kim Il Sung. But the United States and other countries have denounced the move as an attempt to test, or show off, the country's ballistic missile capabilities.
