Taepodong-2: Time for War?

Taepodong-2: Time for War. It sounds like the title of some action movie, but it's as real as it gets. North Korea chose July 4th to test fire up to 10 missiles.

The long-range Taepodong-2, three-stage ballistic missile broke up in mid-air 30-40 seconds after launch; the others were unguided scud type missiles that landed in the sea of Japan. US NORAD monitored all launches and described them as “failures.”

One senior military official who spoke on condition of anonymity stated that 'the big story here should be that for the large part, Iran has been financing North Korea Missile program.'

So why does Iran want the US to be distracted by North Korea? We will continue to track the story.
