More Fun With North Korea!

[Butchers Bill]

Anyone betting on whether or not they set off a nuke tomorrow?  My bet is yes unless China steps in.  NK is getting any more consessions from anyone and they may just be thinking, if we set one off we can negotiate on limiting our number of nukes.

[mpmcgraw]

i dont think they can reach us yet

at least i hope not

I think their last test barely made it out of Korea, not sure though.  I do remember the guvment saying they were locked on it the entire time and would have shot it down if it got close though.

Bush needs to get the hell out of the middle east...this is where the real threat is.

Can we just blow them up now? Get it over with?

The Chinese are getting pissed about it.

The Japanese are already pissed and I don't think Shinzo Abe would delay in taking Japan nuclear if he felt that he needed to. Personally I don't think there is, because the US government would consider an attack on Japan akin to an attack on any US state. But the Japanese public might want their own independent deterrent and Abe's a hawk.

The actual threat isn't any different than it's been for the past few years. DPRK already has the bomb, they are just thinking about doing some saber-rattling to get more concessions from the West.

Oh crap...NK is now saying they did it.

[QB Eagles]

USGS confirms it. Welcome to the nuclear club, Kimist nutjobs.

[The BIGSTUD]

They are full of shtein, they'll never make a nuke. 

[mussa]

There is no resources in NK, why would we go there, let alone give a shtein about it's people, duh!

Let China and Japan deal with them, they need to flex some muscle.

GERTZ: U.S. doubts Korean test was nuclear; Readings fall short of atomic explosion... MORE...

U.S. intelligence agencies say, based on preliminary indications, that North Korea did not produce its first nuclear blast yesterday, WASHINGTON TIMES star reporter Bill Gertz is set to report in Tuesday editions.

U.S. officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said that seismic readings show that the conventional high explosives used to create a chain reaction in a plutonium-based device went off, but that the blast's readings were shy of a typical nuclear detonation.

The underground explosion, which Pyongyang dubbed a historic nuclear test, is thought to have been the equivalent of several hundred tons of TNT, far short of the several thousand tons of TNT, or kilotons, that are signs of a nuclear blast, the official said. Developing...

last night i swore my wife was going to kill me.  i did a summersault out of the end of my bed, ran down the hallway, called my wife a funhole and went to sleep in my daughters bed

  Awesome.

Usually I think it's retarded when people quote 4 month old posts.  But this one gets a free pass because the quote made me laugh.....again.

North Korea prepping for second nuclear test

Not surprising, considering that the first test was a low-yield fizzle and the UN sanctions implemented this past week are toothless. Didn't stop big shots around the world from patting themselves on the back though.

The Asian punchline is now in a "state of war" with South Korea.

Hilarious.

War would be an improvement for the people of North Korea.  Better to die by a nuke than by starvation in a concentration camp after you've been forced to kill your own parents.
