Israel proves intended Iranian satellite launch

The Israeli firm ImageSat International (ISI) exposed the sneaky Iranians as they are in the final stages of a satellite launching scheme. This appears to be part of the Islamic Republic's ballistic missile program.

According to images released by ISI, Tehran plans to launch a satellite into orbit from northern Iran.

Although Iranian President Hassan Rouhani made past claims regarding launching satellites “using domestically-made rockets,” Iranian officials have been caught with their pajamas down in the past fabricating military intelligence and attempting to disseminate false propaganda regarding Iran’s military capabilities.

In this latest case, however, ISI’s photos seem to demonstrate that Iran’s satellite launch may be imminent, with large numbers of personnel arriving at the Khomenei Spaceport in the past few days, Times of Israel reported.

Israel, the United States, and other allies believe Iran is using its space program to develop ballistic missiles capable of reaching Iran’s enemies far and wide. And there's no reason not to believe this as they continue their ritualistic chants of "Death to America!" and "Death to Israel!"

“It is our assessment that the missile that will carry the satellite is already in a construction site, and that checks are being preformed on it and on the launcher,” ISI said, according to the Times.

Israel is not alone in expressing consternation about Iran’s military ambitions and aggression, with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo previously identifying Iran’s satellite program as clear evidence of the country’s defiance of a U.N. resolution barring the Iran from developing ballistic missiles capable of carrying nuclear weapons because those suicidal maniacs would be only happy to use them to get their ride to Jannah and their virgins.

NoKo seeks space program, vows to launch more satellites

"Boom, Zoom, right to the moon"

They're not just building democracy-destroying ballistic missiles, now North Korea's corpulent dictator Kim Jong Un wants his hermit nation to get their own space program. He is vowing to launch more satellites and says that efforts to stop their space program is "not tolerable."

It's a five-year program NoKo's main propaganda newspaper, Rodong Sinmun, announced Monday. The regime's claim is that the goals are to improve the economy and "livelihood" of North Korean residents, according to Yonhap News Agency. 

"Some countries have manipulated the U.N. sanctions resolutions against us and hindered the sovereign country's space development," the newspaper said. "It is not a tolerable act. It is a global trend that a country seeks the economic growth with the space program."

Perhaps they're planning to farm cheese on the moon to go with the grass their people are calling a vegetable on the Earth.

North Korea has made advances in the space program since fat Kim Jong Un came into power in 2011 after his father died. They launched their first satellite at the end of 2012 after giving it the old high school try since 1998.


The satellite achieved stable orbit but just kept making circles around the Earth--it couldn't transmit data because the telephone cord was too short.

Monday's announcement might signal a possible long-range rocket launch, according to Yonhap News Agency. Two new buildings near Sohae launching station were seen via satellite imagery. Some experts believe North Korea wants to launch more satellites to test its ballistic missile technology.

Kim has been described not only as a Dennis Rodman fan, but also a "micro-manager" who likes to have people around him taking notes, even if they're only doodling.

Military generals are often heard saying, "Kim is coming; quick, look busy."

Kim is out to launch

Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is apparently having a urinating contest with President Trump and says that North Korea is "on standby to launch" missiles and could hit the U.S. mainland if he wanted to and is "capable of fighting any war the U.S. wants." 

The bragging was made in an editorial that added the Paektusan army is now "on standby to launch fire into its mainland, waiting for an order of final attack."

And yes, it would be North Korea's final attack if they become so bold and suicidal to try it.

The editorial says the U.S. "finds itself in an ever worsening dilemma, being thrown into the grip of extreme security unrest by the DPRK. This is tragicomedy of its own making . . . If the Trump administration does not want the American empire to meet its tragic doom in its tenure, they had better talk and act properly."

DPRK stands for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, their official name, and it's pronounced "Deeprick."

President Trump seems to have difficulty with passively accepting threats from fat stooges like Kim, and it's about time we had a president who leads from the front, not impotently from [and with his] behind.

With Trump, you know what he's thinking all the time in 140 characters, and apparently, Kim follows Trump on Twitter.

When Kim threatened a missile attack on Guam, Trump made it clear that the U.S. is "locked and loaded," a term that may be unfamiliar to snowflakes and others on the left who despise the Second Amendment.

In the meanwhile, Trump is pursuing a diplomatic solution to North Korea's development of nuclear warheads that could reach the U.S. mainland and our allies.

China said that they will not support North Korea if they fire first, but they will if we strike first. That's a situation nobody who isn't on a psychotropic medication wants.

Trump praised China's President Xi for supporting the UN sanction and said he's looking forward to seeing him later this year when he visits China.

"At present, the relevant parties must maintain restraint and avoid words and deeds that would exacerbate the tension on the Korean Peninsula," Xi said.

Trump replied: "Exacerbate? Now that's a ten dollar word. I'll try to avoid it."

NoKo Kim supervises missile test of new guidance system

Fat boy and North Korea's Leader for Life, Kim Jong-un has supervised yet another ballistic missile test controlled by a precision guidance system that he claims is accurate within 23 feet. He has also ordered the development of more powerful strategic weapons, according to North Korea's only news agency KCNA. 

The short-range ballistic missile landed in the sea off its east coast in defiance of world pressure and warnings of more sanctions to a leader who eats like a king while his people eat like anorexic squirrels.

Since the start of last year, North Korea has been firing off ballistic missile tests and claiming major advances that some believe have at least partial truth but difficult to prove.

"Whenever news of our valuable victory is broadcast recently, the Yankees would be very much worried about it and the gangsters of the South Korean puppet army would be dispirited more and more," KCNA quoted Kim as saying. 

Trump retaliates with golf course
launch

Kim is evidently a Red Sox fan.

"He expressed the conviction that it would make a greater leap forward in this spirit to send bigger 'gift package' to the Yankees" in retaliation for American military provocation, KCNA said.



President Trump tweeted in response to Kim's bravado, saying: "Oh yeah? I got you gift package right here."

There they go again Kim with another missile test

Well there they go again. North Korea fired another missile. This one was a medium-range ballistic number as they continue to push forward in developing a nuclear weapon and a missile that will transport it to our front lawns.

The missile was tracked by U.S. Pacific Command and said it landed at sea. No word yet on the condition of SpongeBob but fingers are crossed as Patrick prays for his safety.

According to the South Korean Office of Joint Chiefs of staff, the launch came from an area near Pukchang, in South Phyongan Province. It flew about 310 miles eastward.

[Fun Fact: Pukchang was where the first hockey pucks were forged.] 

The White House is aware of the ballistic missile launch and has done nothing about it, but officials traveling with the president in Saudi Arabia said the system, which was last tested in February, has a shorter range than North Korea's most recent test.

Now that North Korea knows that we know what they've done, I'm sure they're scared.

Last weekend North Korea tested a longer-range missile, which was a significant advance for their weapons program, experts say, and their aim is to have the capability to fire a nuclear-tipped missile that can strike the US soil and the people who walk on it.

The U.S. retaliated by cutting off North Korea's yo-yo supply along with other sanctions that have had the same effect as the one we are witnessing.

This past Friday, North Korea's deputy UN envoy, Kim In Ryong, said the country will continue to strengthen its nuclear program, "you Yankee imperialist dogs" as a necessary measure to counter U.S. aggression.

It sounds a little like the abusive husband who blames his battered wife for making him beat her.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis said Friday that North Korea is clearly not complying with pressure from the international community causing Captain Obvious to blush with jealousy.

Forget about it-- We are 'monitoring' N. Korea's missile claims

The United States is closely "monitoring" the outcome of North Korea's latest missile test especially since the crazy nation is claiming its newest rocket is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead that could reach our shores.

A day after the chubby dictator's regime launched a successful test of the KN-17 missile, which flew about 435 miles toward Japan, the state-run "news" agency KCNA (aka "Kim Can Nuke Anyone") reported the "U.S. mainland and Pacific operations" were in range of their weaponry.

KCNA also claimed its missile was meant to verify the specifications of a new ballistic rocket "capable of carrying a large-size heavy nuclear warhead."

North Korea has yet to have a miniaturized warhead but it's a sure bet they're working on one.

"We are monitoring," a National Security Council official told Fox News.

According to Vinny Boombots, my source, the U.S. doesn't believe Pyongyang has the technology to mount a nuclear warhead yet, "But you can take it to the bank that we'll sit around doing nothing until they make the first big move," Vinny said. "Forget about it. We gotta do more than just freaking monitor those weasels if we don't want to end up like a huge crematorium." 

A senior White House official said the administration was carefully assessing the news coming out of North Korea. 

"Yeah, but you know how those North Koreans like to throw the bull and make it sound like theirs is bigger than ours, if you know what I'm sayin'," Vinny said. "If they ain't lyin', we're dyin' unless we get it into gear and hit 'em first."

Underscoring the gravity of the current situation, an official told Fox News that Pyongyang took a "step forward" with the current launch. 

Fox's Charles Krauthammer made a similar statement saying that even when North Korea fails in a ballistic missile test, they've still learned something and it takes them another step toward developing nuclear capability.

Vinny Boombots

According to U.S. officials, the KN-17 flew four minutes longer than any previous ballistic missile test in their history. They cautioned that North Korea previously conducted space launches that have flown longer than the KN-17 and in February 2016 sent a satellite into orbit on Super Bowl Sunday, which, Vinny believes, was to "spy on Patriot plays that gave them an unbelievable win over the Falcons."

John Schilling, an aerospace maven, told Reuters the test "represents a level of performance never before seen from a North Korean missile."

"It appears to have not only demonstrated an intermediate-range ballistic missile that might enable them to reliably strike the U.S. base at Guam," Schilling said, "but more important, may represent a substantial advance to develop an intercontinental ballistic missile."

Vinny concurred.

Iran conducts ballistic missile test violating UN resolution

Iran conducted a ballistic missile test, the first under Donald Trump's presidency. Not only is it in violation of United Nations resolution 2231, but they may as well have painted the missile to look like a giant middle finger because it certainly flipped Trump off.

The launch went off Sunday near Semnan about 140 miles east of Tehran (about 225.308 kilometers, give or take 0.04 kilometers).

The Khorramshahr medium-range ballistic missile flew about 600 miles (about 965.606 kilometers) before blowing up, in a failed test of reentry. Iran defense minister Brig. Gen. Hossein Dehqan (aka "Hoss") said in September that Iran would start production of the missile, weeks before our presidential election in which Hillary Clinton lost.

The UN resolution went into effect days after the obviously useless Iran nuclear deal was signed. It calls on Iran not to conduct such tests, but did they listen? Did anyone but Obama and Kerry think they would?

This is at least Iran's second such test since July in spite of the resolution barring the conducting of ballistic missile tests for eight years and went into effect July 20, 2015. The text of the resolution clearly states that Iran is "called upon not to undertake any activity related to ballistic missiles designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons, including launches using such ballistic missile technology."

Of course, in the Obama administration's infinite wisdom, the nuclear deal between Iran and world powers doesn't have any provisions that can be used to prevent the terrorist country from conducting ballistic missile tests. Iran claims the tests are legitimate because they aren't designed to carry a nuclear warhead [this time]. 

President Trump spoke with Saudi King Salman on Sunday. They both "agreed on the importance of rigorously enforcing the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action with Iran and of addressing Iran's destabilizing regional activities," the White House said in a statement.

Saudi Arabia is the seat of Sunni Islam, the main Islamic sect in the world comprising around 70 percent of all Muslims. Iran is a majority Shia nation. 

Not surprisingly, the Sunnis and Shias hate each other as both believe the other sect are apostates. 

A ballistic missile launch could potentially fall under "destabilizing regional activities." 

The launch came one day before Jordan's King Abdullah arrived in Washington to meet with VP Mike Pence and Defense Secretary Mattis. 

Coincidence or the second middle-finger flip off to Jordan?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be meeting with Trump February 15 and will discuss the Iran situation with him at that time.

"I will meet President Trump in Washington soon, and among the issues I will address is the need to renew the sanctions against Iran," Netanyahu wrote on Facebook Monday. (It is not known how many 'Likes' that statement received.) "Sanctions against the ballistic missiles, and other sanctions against the terror, and re-addressing the failed government on its nuclear capabilities.

"I know that this bothers not only Israel," Netanyahu added, "and not only the US but other countries in the region, Iran's aggression should not be ignored."

Our intelligence community was able to identify Iran's ballistic missile launch because of our robust satellite network. The system can detect the heat signatures of missile launches and explosions from bombs being dropped around the world.

Last March, Iran test-fired two ballistic missiles, one with the phrase: "Israel must be wiped out" in Hebrew written on the side.

So while Shias and Sunnis don't get along with each other, they both hate the Jews just as much. They are also intolerant of everyone else.

Last March, US Army Gen. Joseph Votel told lawmakers that we should continue to "expose" Iran for the role that they play in the region, including its support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a chinless scum who dropped barrel bombs on his own people.

I think the time for talk is about over. Trump needs to do something to show Iran that we are "mad as hell and we aren't going to take it anymore."
