ACtually, from all the news reports that I saw and read, the missles being tested have the capability to strike Hawaii, and I THOUGHT I read something about one being able to reach US mainland but I have to double check that one.
One thing I did hear empirically was that the North Korean President has pretty much come out and said, to paraphrase, if the US fucks with him/his country, he will START a nuclear war with us. The fact that they were testing missles on a major American National holiday was not even remotely a coincidence. As one reporter put it, they were poking us in the eye to get our attention.
Why did they have to do that? Because, as I said in my journal, we haven't been paying them enough attention. Reminds me of Germany in the 30's. Look how far they got before someone started paying them attention.
I have no doubt that your theory of Japan being one of the Korean targets is dead on, but everything that I've seen suggests that N. Korea wants to pick a fight with us. Makes me shiver, it does.
