With Trump back from his trip, and speculation again emerging that Trump may "wag the dog" and launch an attack on the Kim regime to deflect from the domestic media onslaught a la Syria, especially after last night's report that the US has deployed a third carrier group to the Western Pacific, on Sunday Korea's state news agency, KCNA reported that after weeks of defiant ballistic missile tests Kim Jong Un supervised the test of a new anti-aircraft weapon system and ordered its mass production and deployment throughout the country.
