Missile Fail
One of the main reasons I chose this article was because I checked various articles that provided, and they all had something to say about this topic. The article I chose was the North Korean Missile Launch Fails ‘Almost Immediately,’ U.S. Military Says by "Courtney Kube, Kelly O'Donnell,  and Stella Kim.The article is about the newest failure of the Korean missiles.I find it amusing how a lot of people are assuming Trump would start Wold War 3 over something like this. I feel like Trump does not consider this as much of a threat compared to other things.
A lot of people are concerned about North Korea's intentions. The United States may never know the reason for the missile but since it failed, a lot of people don't seem to care as much. The article provides statements about how North Korea held a massive parade the previous day; the article says that North Korea was exposing a new prototype. I think it's interesting how North Korea hasn't given up on trying out new nuclear weapons.
Trump didn't comment about the failed missile, but I am curious about what was on his mind at the time. I mean a country that is trying to make a nuclear weapon to try to get ahead is scary. How can Trump be so calm about something like that? what if it failed? what if any United States citizens had gotten injured or died? Does Trump even think about this when he hears about news like this?
North Korea also revealed that that had very destructive Submarines that can cause a lot of damage upon impact. If North Korea does achieve the submarine missiles then that would make them capable of so much more. I think it's scary if they actually accomplish the underwater missiles since it puts so many lives in jeopardy. What is North Korea trying to do? What is their intent? Are we in danger? I think it's sad knowing that they can harm so many people if they actually do accomplish a new missile. It's scary seeing what our world is turning into knowing there is nothing we can do to stop anyone or any of the missiles.

  1. On April 27th, 2017, Rachel MacKay posted an article titled "Missile Fail". In this article, she discussed her viewpoint on U.S. and North Korea relations regarding the failed Korean missile launch.

    Using what I've observed previously, and from what I've learned upon further research (as can be seen in my other recent post), this just appears to be another "power move". As we've seen many a time before, North Korea is just pretending that they're preparing for war, and this is likely just another attempt. WWIII wouldn't be caused by this, and even if North Korea did attempt war, it would quickly end.

    It's also worth mentioning that her claims about Trump not caring is untrue; there has been attempts to shut down North Korea's missile production by shutting down their economy, as well as U.S. ships based off of their shores.. I personally believe that North Korea isn't something we need to worry about, as their threat is being shut down as we speak.
