truck full of dynamite next to the tracks

From examining satellite photo evidence, many believe that it was not a dynamite explosion. Some highly potent material like rocket fuel. Some speculate that N. Koreans tried to enhance missile fuel with adding extra chemicals. Would give missile much powerful propulsion, but highly unstable. Somebody lighted it up when Kim was about to pass by, as the story goes.

That is an issue. To bad our HUMINT is so bad after the 'Rats hijacked the CIA and state department. Of course we could try to destroy both, but would have to be sure he was on board.
