Why did North Korea just test two Scud missiles? Was North Korea responding to the US-South Korean military exercise? Does the pairing of conventional and unconventional missiles pose a unique challenge for military planners in the future?
Today, Jeffrey and Aaron talk North Korea’s missile tests, the Dear Leader’s burlesque style approach to propaganda pictures, and the stability/instability paradox.
Jeffrey and Aaron discussed a number of articles during the podcast:
