The
latest propaganda video released by North Korea threatens specific
targets in the US: Washington, Los Angeles, Honolulu, and Colorado
Springs. Except they don't know where Colorado Springs is.
The
only problem is that the video, released by the state-run media
organization Uriminzokkiri, misidentifies Colorado Springs’ location by
about 1,000 miles. As the voice-over excitedly discusses North Korea’s
plan to launch a missile at the home of a number of important military
installations, as well as the U.S. Air Force Academy, a dot on a map
meant to indicate the city actually appears somewhere over the deep
south.
You can hear the narrator mention Colorado Springs at
about 1 minute, 20 seconds into the video, as a scary-looking line is
shown shooting out from North Korea and landing somewhere in the
vicinity of Shreveport, La., a 900-mile drive southeast from the
intended target.
Like other recent North Korean
videos, the intended effect is probably to solidify internal support.
Any actual missile routes from North Korea to the US would be polar.
Their KN-08 missiles mentioned in the video are so far untested. See the
entire video at the
Washington Post.
