While the communist nation has reportedly been moving several missiles repeatedly on its east coast today in an apparent attempt to interfere with intelligence monitoring, the Pentagon told the North it is "very close to a dangerous line."

Rodong Sinmun, the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, has ramped up its rhetoric in response to the rising tensions, declaring "it is utterly silly for the south Korean puppets to want to evade from a shower of our nuclear strike under the nuclear umbrella of their U.S. master."
In a convuluted and fiery rant, the newspaper said the North's nuclear shower "will break the U.S. nuclear umbrella so mercilessly that the warmongers cannot even repent of anything." Contrary to much public speculation, the North said the recent escalation in tensions "is not a mere saber-rattling, but a prelude to war."
"The U.S., noisily advertising about its commitment to provision of nuclear umbrella, is stuffing its latest nuclear war equipment into south Korea," it states. "Unaware of what a miserable fate is befalling on them, the south Korean puppets are running headlong into an adventure of attacking the DPRK on a nuke war chariot of the U.S.
"Now, the U.S. cannot afford to take care of its stooges. "Backed by outside forces, they are hell-bent on igniting a nuclear war against the DPRK." The warning was the latest in a line of similarly-themed rants against the US, with videos depicting New York in flames after an apparent missile attack and US hostages in the South also issuing disturbing messages in a war of propaganda.
The White House 'caught in the panoramic sight of a North Korean long-range missile'. The North will break the U.S. nuclear umbrella so mercilessly that the warmongers cannot even repent of anything. The remarks come as the communist country has repeatedly said it will turn Seoul and Washington into a "sea of fire" and launch pre-emptive nuclear attacks against its enemies at any time.
According to intelligence analysis, the North has today moved two Musudan intermediate missiles, which had been concealed in a shed in the eastern port city of Wonsan, in and out of the facility, with one reportedly being in a "ready to fire position." The US has today raised its official threat level and tested its emergency alert system after warnings from North Korea identifying Guam as a potential missile target, according to reports.
South Korea's Yonhap news agency quoted a government source saying Pyongyang might be preparing "multiple" launches, after other launch vehicles were reportedly detected carrying shorter-range SCUD and Rodong missiles.
The military alert status is now at "vital threat" level before an expected North Korean missile test as the Pentagon warned a bellicose Pyongyang it was "skating very close to a dangerous line".
The North last week told foreign diplomats in Pyongyang they had until April 10 to consider evacuation, fuelling speculation of a launch between April 10 and April 15, during birthday celebrations for late founder Kim Il-Sung.
The chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff said the United States military was ready for the "worst case" scenario.

anyone think they'll really launch something?
