North Korea's recent rocket launch, which the nation claims put a satellite into orbit, has been characterized by the U.S. as a long-range missile test. The event has prompted talks between the U.S. and South Korea regarding the deployment of new missile defense systems. The hosts critique the media's "brash young leader" narrative and the military-industrial complex's response.

### North Korea, Missile Launch Hype, Thermonuclear War Claims

- **Episode:** [503: Ninjas in Mongolia](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/503-ninjas-in-mongolia.md)
- **Published:** 2013-04-11

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/503-ninjas-in-mongolia/chapter/north-korea-missile-launch-hype-thermonuclear-war-claims.md

Media outlets like the BBC are criticized for using the term "thermonuclear war" regarding North Korean threats, despite the country's lack of hydrogen bomb capabilities. A theory is proposed that the "two missile" narrative pushed by news agencies is a setup for a staged event where one missile is intercepted and a second, undetonated nuclear warhead is "found" in Japan to justify military action.

Dwayne Melanson and James Spitzer are officially knighted into the No Agenda Roundtable. The hosts then discuss a reported missile launch off the coast of South Padre Island, Texas. A New York Times editor reportedly dismissed the event as an optical illusion or a contrail, a claim the hosts reject based on visual evidence of a flame at the base of the object.
