North Korea confirms it launched missile over Japan, calls it ‘first step’ to contain Guam


North Korea on Wednesday confirmed that
it had fired an intermediate-range ballistic missile over Japan, and said it was meant to counter military drills conducted by the United States and South Korea, reported Reuters. North Korea also said that the missile launch was a “first step” to military action in the Pacific Ocean to contain the US territory of Guam.
“The current ballistic rocket launching drill like a real war is the first step of the military operation of the Korean People’s Army in the Pacific, and a meaningful prelude to containing Guam,” North Korean state-run Korean Central News Agency quoted the country’s leader, Kim Jong Un, as saying.
The United Nations on Tuesday strongly condemned North Korea’s actions, calling it “outrageous”. The UN demanded that Pyongyang immediately halt its weapons programme. The 15-member UN Security Council said that countries should implement all UN sanctions on North Korea.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said the world had received North Korea’s message “loud and clear”. “Threatening and destabilising actions only increase the North Korean regime’s isolation in the region and among all nations of the world,” Trump said. “All options are on the table.”

IT movie - story, cast, reviews

Film: IT Cast: Jaeden Lieberher, Sophia Lillis, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Finn Wolfhard, Jack Dylan Grazer, Wyatt Oleff, Chosen Jacobs, Nicholas Hamilton, Bill Skarskgard Director: Andy Muschietti This terrifying new movie adaptation of Stephen King’s novel after 1990’s made-for-TV series about unsolved child murders shouldn’t be missed except by those with an aversion to clowns like music impresario Simon Cowell. Like many of King’s books (most notably Carrie) IT is a coming-of-age story which unnerves the viewer with its visceral horror. A bunch of young hugely talented unknown actors play seven misfits aka Losers who are haunted and hunted by hate-filled bullies and the titular antagonist (Bill Skarsgard). This entity represents the sum of all the youngsters (and our) fears. The opposite of love is Fear as Evil/IT well knows and exploits. Fear disrupts, destroys and sucks at the resolve in our souls. IT, the film judiciously juxtaposes supernatural evil with real life horrors. The...
