This month started out with some tension when North Korea decided to go deaf-dumb-and-blind to the rest of the world, and go ahead with their planned rocket launch on April 5. The launch was officially to put a communications satellite into orbit, but is still widely considered a disguised missile test. The UN Security Counsil condemned the launch of the long-range rocket launch, saying it contravened UN bans. Turns out, North Korea doesn’t care.
