ANOTHER GRAVE PROVOCATION: A SIGN OF ANOTHER NUCLEAR TEST? North Korea
_______________________________________________________
This news just broke about nine hours ago on Yahoo News, but there were earlier reports that hit yesterday and on April 8, 2012 about this information. Posted too, are a few other reports that hit the news over the past week or so in regards to yet another possible weapon that the North Koreans are constructing and reports on the reactions of the United States, South Korea, and Japan on these issues. My immediate thoughts when I first read these reports are on the other news events that have been reported in regards to the racist killing of a Florida teen, Trayvon Martin and other related Hate Crimes that have also been recently reported.
While our government is dealing with these outside threats of security, meanwhile within our system we as Black African Americans are expected to endure this kind of hatred that has been allowed for so long and wait patiently on this government to address these issues. Just yesterday news hit about a digital sign that made a remark about the slain teen of which flashed in bold letters ‘the N word’ in Dearborn, Michigan and there are countless remarks made on this wise about an innocent young man who has just been murdered by the son of a White Jewish judge and an Hispanic mother. We, as Black African Americans, are expected to support a government through paying our taxes and etc. that breeds these evil racist people, like that judges son, Zimmerman, many of whom not only attack and have made evil remarks about this slain teen who has just been slain after only walking through his neighborhood around 7:00 P.M. headed to his own house unarmed, stocked, and then gunned down. We are expected to exist in peace alongside these evil racist who not only make awful remarks about this dead teen while his mother is grieving, but they make racist remarks against the president as well but just as soon as our system becomes threatened, these same kind of people would have the nerve to expect the American government to protect their rights…to be racist, do hate crimes under certain acceptable pretexts and walk around for weeks as free citizens without even being arrested while our government investigates… Smh.

North Korea 'digging tunnel for third nuclear test'
By Danielle Demetriou, The Daily Telegraph April 9, 2012
North Korea is digging a tunnel in apparent preparation for a new nuclear test, according to intelligence reports.
Satellite images have depicted mounds of earth piled at the entrance of a tunnel at a site in Punggye-ri, in the north east, where two nuclear tests were conducted in 2006 and 2009.
Observers fear that the new tunnel could indicate the state's intentions to conduct a third underground nuclear test. A report compiled by South Korean intelligence officials read: "North Korea is covertly preparing for a third nuclear test, which would be another grave provocation….

North Korea completes assembly of rocket at launch pad
North Korea's long-range rocket, scheduled to put what it says is a satellite into orbit next week, has been installed on its launch platform.
North Korea organised an unprecedented visit to Tongchang-ri space centre to show that the Unha-3 rocket is not a disguised ballistic missile, as claimed by the United States and their allies, notably South Korea and Japan.
"To say this is a missile test is really nonsense," said Jang Myong-Jin, head of the space centre. …
…The journalists were able to observe the rocket, painted in white with sky blue lettering, installed on a platform ahead of its scheduled launch sometime between April 12-16.

Japan and South Korea have put their armed forces on standby in response to North Korea's plans, prepared to shoot down the missile if it passes over their territory.
…However, the United States, Japan and South Korea believe that in reality it will be a ballistic missile test in violation of UN resolutions.
