North Korea Threatens Colorado City, Inaccurately

A video released on a North Korean government Web site.

North Korea, which seemed to be running out of tubs to thump, found a new target for its ire in a propaganda video released Saturday on Uriminzokkiri, a government Web site.

To a soundtrack of fervent synthesizers and inspirational light rock, the video announces that North Korea will aim nuclear weapons (that it may, or may not, be able to launch) at Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Honolulu and… Colorado Springs, Co.

The unorthodox move - apparently an attempt to target the North American Aerospace Defense Command, or Norad, and the United States Air Force Academy - is compounded by the fact that Pyongyang does not quite know where the city is. The map shown in the video places it somewhere in Louisiana.
