War Threatens. The Usual Driving Forces.

North Korea fired several surface-to-ship missiles off its east coast on June 8, South Korea's military said. The Joint Chief's of Staff said the missiles flew about 200 kilometers. The previous week the North Koreans fired a short range ballistic missile that landed in Japan's maritime economic zone, prompting protests from Japan and South Korea. The launches on June 8 were the fourth missile tests in as many weeks as the country speeds up its production of nuclear weapons, almost certainly aided by that great new capitalist giant China.

This portend did not sit well for anyone other than Asian capitalists. The need for markets and raw materials always have and always will drive rival capitalist powers into war, and there is only one way to prevent it.
