North Korean nukes give Japan a scare- Rian Pettit

   Most people are brushing off North Korea's threats to hit the United States, as it hasn't been proven it can actually hit the mainland U.S., but it is raising many red flags in Japan. Its Rodong missiles, are said to have a range about 1,300 kilo-meters, or 800 miles, making it easy to hit Tokyo, and key U.S. military bases. 

''Officials stress that simply having the ability to launch an attack does not mean it would be a success. They also say North Korea is not known to have actually deployed any nuclear-tipped missiles.'' If something like this were to occur, it isn't like they would be at a total lost. It is said Japan has one of the world's most sophisticated missile defense shield to keep their own tabs on NK's military activity.
