The July 4th DPRK Taepodong-2 missile launch, along with the firing of half a dozen shorter-range missiles, represented more than just a test of Pyongyang’s ICBM capabilities. It is also a test of the policies and practices of all participants in the six-way talks, and of the international community as well. Thus far, one sees multiple failures!
