Jerry,
Not even China has a significant influence on NK, so what makes you think the USA would have?
BTW SK has retrieved the start-stage of the rocket and will analyze it now.

They say not to worry
SEOUL, South Korea - After 14 years of painstaking labor, North Korea finally has a rocket that can put a satellite in orbit. But that doesn't mean the reclusive country is close to having an intercontinental ballistic missile.
Experts say Pyongyang is years from even having a shot at developing reliable missiles that could bombard the American mainland and other distant targets, though it did gain attention and the outrage of world leaders Wednesday with its first successful launch of a three-stage, long-range rocket.[/i] [More] |

As the article points out, the failure of the satellite is not reason to rejoyce. The fact that they have a rocket capable of placing a satellite in orbit is troubling.....

One of the dictators of Pakistan said that they will have a nuclear weapon, "even if it means that Pakistanis will have to eat grass."
I wonder if North Koreans have even such a possibility as some grass to eat.
