A lovers quarrel?

At one of Trump's recent campaign rallies he said that he and Kim Jong-un “fell in love.” Well, maybe Kim doesn't feel the same way, as it appears as though North Korea has not stopped its ballistic missile program. Recently new commercial satellite images identified sixteen hidden missile bases.



The base above is a little more than 50 miles north of the Demilitarized Zone. It is one of the closest to South Korea. Seoul, the capital, is about 80 miles away, as are American troops. 

Furthermore, the North has yet to take the first step toward denuclearization: providing us with a list of its nuclear sites, weapons, production facilities and missile bases. It is estimated that the North has about 40 to 60 nuclear warheads. And we can't do a good surveillance job as our missiles are effective only 30% of the time.
