US Air Force tests ICBM missile at 4200 miles

At 3:01 AM, the US Air Force successfully launched an unarmed Minuteman 3 intercontinental ballistic missile from a California base towards targets in the Pacific Ocean. Three unarmed re-entry vehicles were confirmed to have hit their targets in the Marshall Islands, some 4,200 miles away. The Air Force referred to the launch as nothing more than a reliability/accuracy test, but Defense Secretary Gates has already deployed "Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missiles and an SBX Radar to Hawaii in response to reports that Pyongyang plans to test a missile sometime July 4". So what's youre take on the intent of the 'test'?

Imperialism.

I think the test is nothing more than the effective utilization of taxpayers hard earned money spent on the successful demolishing of two drones.

I believe its better than spending it on small arms and putting people in harms way in places like iraq, iran and afghanistan but thats just my opinion

Exactly. Too bad Kim Jong Ill is too crazy to realize he's outmatched in a missle contest. (not that i want one)

Kid does something irresponsible, parent tells them not to do it.

Parent does it later on, kid watches.

Kid says, parent does it why can't I ?

War ensues.

Albert Einstein actually came up with the theory of nuclear fission fun enough.
