Also using terminology such as mature to describe a nation that has only been around for 241 years is tenuous at best not to mention the fact that said nation has essentially been at war for around 230 of those 241 years.
Seems to me America was built for war not that my own nation is any better.

It's an attitude i also shared back in the day YouSir, but once you have children and settle down somewhat, you kind of start to question where this Human race thingamabob is all headed and why we refuse to learn from our past mistakes not to mention why we seem to have a penchant for destruction that seems unrivaled by any other species on the planet.
Time to grow up as a species me thinks if we intend to be around for a while else it will all end in tears, irradiated tears that is.

For a significant percentage of the people of the world, things can only get better considering the state of affairs in which we find ourselves never mind the socioeconomic oblivion of our own creation most nations are in these days.
Just a thought.

Japan said they would not shoot it down If it passed over n-Japan. Japan actually said that they wont shoot down any missile that fly over Japan. It could be looked upon as a act of war by NK.

Ken might be a loose canon but he isn't stupid. The only thing that might protect him from that rogue huntsman is his capability to fight back.

Japan has both the PAC-3, and Aegis BMD, and are working on getting Aegis Ashore. Both PAC-3 and BMD will stop anything short of an ICBM class missile.

SBX will be tied into Aegis, so it's pretty important that it is operational and ready to go.
