It is truly amazing that such a small country as the DPR of Korea, occupy so much press space in supposedly democratic countries like the U.S.A. DPR of Korea is the one and only country that has caused more nightmares to the idiot imperialist occupiers of South Korea.Unlike South Korea, the DPR of Korea did not need any Marshal Plan to rise from the ashes that resulted from the destruction caused by the Korean War; contrarily to what western media says, DPRK is alive and quite healthy, thanks, not to the U.S. or its capitalist friends, but to itself and to its direct neighbors such as China and Russia.Now, the DPR of Korea is again preparing to launch another rocket into space to put in orbit the first of many satellites that will make North Korea totally independent of the arrogant imperialists; i hope that they will be successful in this release.It is a pity that the Americans have not learned from their past failures and huge losses of life, in several occasions...Actually , it must be very costly to North-Americans to have to swallow their pride, when they need to ask the Russians —their former enemies—to carry its astronauts to their common space station.It is very possible that, very soon, the Americans will ask the North Koreans to do the same work for them; who knows?I wish the best to DPRK on this so important event for its people!

Keep up the good work!

Guys, if you love north korea, come visit, I heard they have friendly people and nice hotels for foreigners. Whenever you say the leaders name though you better say Glory in the same sentence otherwise you might get into trouble. Or better yet all the Korea fans, why not move to the lovely country you salute so much?

Your not allowed to see that north korea is not suffering from the sanctions and can feed itself. in the case of Israel you cant focus in on the nation because they dont want you to know Israel is a very rich modern nation that does not need billions in "aid" each year from american pockets.

"A small country representing a fraction of a % of the world's population is constantly in the spotlight, I don't see where's the failure in that. The manage to get free press all the time and export their culture"
The only country trying their best to adopt a north Korean culture is the Russian government

"wow!!!!DPRK,u make us proud.Never bow to the US n it's allies pressure.Those who do so r puppets n never acheive anything.(Japan,Sout h Korea,turkey etc)."
This was the funniest(most stupid) comment I have ever read on RT. so north Korea whose people have starved in the millions and have to beg the likes of japan, south Korea and turkey for a few grains of rice make you proud?

wow!!!!DPRK,u make us proud.Never bow to the US n it's allies pressure.Those who do so r puppets n never acheive anything.(Japan,Sout h Korea,turkey etc).

"The US officials and some analysts are now concerned that the failure of a North Korean rocket and the humiliation it presumably caused may force the regime to test a nuclear device or take other provocative actions."

F ailure is not humiliation. It allows you to measure the errors and correct them. I've failed in life over and over and over again and sometimes up to the point of discouragement until at some point I've seen the light at the end of the tunnel and started succeeding at what I was doing.

Don't feel humiliated and don't feel defeated. If you don't give up, learn from your mistakes and continue with resilience, you will succeed.

What use has a small, starving nation for a 'space programme'? Oh, just the 'communist' elite, then. Anyone with half a brain knows what Korth Korea and Iran are up to. And how low they will go.

i find it very interesting the stance the u.n. is taking with iran when north korea is blatenly violating international law.... we must be living in the twilight zone.... god bless.. peace in the middle east.... praise allah

In Mugabe we trust   Hah! thats a laugh hey. Hows your fu@ked up country you moron. The "White man" made Rhodesian and "e-ba-gum" made "Zimbabwe Ruins".   Wha t a cheek hey zim "Boy", we whites have made everything on this planet while all you do in zim is breed!   I really "Enjoyed" "Shooting" and "Killing" your so called "Murdering Comrades" i'm sure soon we will turn North Korea To "Glass"   How s that well in Bindura still full of "Dead Gooks"!!! HAHAHHA!   &n bsp;  

The USA is the biggest threat to Asia and non "whites" all over the world, therefore it is the USA that must be banned from developping missiles or nuclear weapons and not the DPRK. North Korea must stop talking to a nation that has enslaved africans and continue to terrorize africa. it is worse than the Nazi and should be destroyed for Africa to get freedom. The EU it homeland is the essense of genocide, evil and satanism in Africa, Asia and all over the world. North Korea you can make money by yourself no need of these parasite of USA/EU terrorists

Having wasted $1 Billion on trying to play with the big boys, they are looking to spend more. The fact that this regime is willing to let their people starve is one issue. But, doing it for the pride of one person shows a complete disregard by Kim for his citizens.  He has gone beyond a Dictator to be a Tyrant. One can only hope to hear " Sic semper tyrannis " someday soon.

Good Luck with that!
