JAPAN vs North Korea's Missile Rocket
North Korea plans to launch a satellite with a missile rocket sometime between April 4 and April 8.
---------------------------
For this reason Japan's UN ambassador, Yukio Takasu, yesterday requested an emergency meeting of the Security Council to discuss possible sanctions against Pyongyang saying that the launch violates UN resolutions that ban further ballistic missile tests.
But China, North Korea’s main ally, is almost certain to veto new sanctions.
For their part the United States, Japan and South Korea have threatened to intercept the missile if it flies over their territory.

---------------------------
Japan plans not to intercept the missile rocket if it flies over its territory without a threat to Japan as planned by North Korea.
But, Japan is ready to intercept the missile rocket only if it should get out of the planned orbit and fall onto the Japan's territory by accident.
(Maybe to be continued...)
One hour after I wrote the above portion of today's special posting, North Korea actually fired its missile rocket to launch the so-called 2nd artificial satellite for North Korea since 1998.
One hour before now, namely 11:30 of Sunday in Japan, as I am writing this around 12:30, North Korea launched the Taepodong-2 missile rocket which flew over the Japanese territory without a trouble; but the final success of its space mission is yet to know.
(Maybe to be further continued...)
If North Korea would not come into negotiations for peace with Japan, especially, to address the freedom of a hundred or so Japanese citizens having been abducted by North Korean secret agents having been acting on mainland Japan since the Korean War, its success of launching a ballistic-missile-type rocket, which can reach Washington D.C., shall not be respected by the World.
Iran must not purchase such rockets from North Korea.
