By dkirk, Contributor Word that North Korea‘s got new missile launchers on its east coast shows the fragility of the standoff on the Korean peninsula. No, no one thinks the North Koreans are about to fire on a “live” target — whether U.S. bases in Japan or South Korea or at some more distant target. The fact is, however, the ongoing moves orchestrated by the North Korean ruling elite in the name of the young leader Kim Jong-un show the unlikelihood if not the impossibility of arriving gracefully at a conclusion to the standoff.
