Nah. If the volcano erupted sharks with friggin’ lasers on their heads, then maybe.

A volcanic eruption large enough to destabilize and topple the Kim regime would be a gift from God.

[mastertex]

Why don't we bomb their ass ans call it a volcano eruption???

[SkyDancer]

If it blows and takes out NK, Trump and the US will be blamed regardless.

The Rocket Man memes are proliferating on The_Donald. Here’s my favorite so far: Un achieving lift-off via his after-burner.

A super volcano eruption would be bad for the world. Really.

[Tai_Chung]

Only because it would be “fire and fury”

North Korean women sing “We Will Go to Mount Paektu”

The Chinese have not reined Kim in because he is a real thorn in the side of the United States. The Chinese leadership would do well to consider the Law of Unintended Consequences.

The Mountain volcano is considered 'sacred' by the predominantly Korean population living near the volcano.....and N. Korea appropriates the mountain's mythology in its propaganda and uses it like a brand-name.

The peak is featured 'on the Emblem of North Korea', defined in Article 169 of the Constitution, which describes Mt Paektu as... "the sacred mountain of the revolution"..... The mountain is often referred to in slogans such as:..... "Let us accomplish the Korean revolution in the revolutionary spirit of Paektu, the spirit of the blizzards of Paektu!"....... North Korean media even celebrates portentous natural phenomenon witnessed at the mountain.

What would you ex-Paektu happen?

[KarlInOhio]

Why the hell would anyone detonate a nuke near a live volcano???!?

No, Mr. Bond, I expect you and everyone else to die.

[OKSooner]

That’s pretty good.

Laz, here’s a good shot of the area before and after the Nuclear Test.....

Want me to paraphrase Gene Hackman from the original Superman movie?

[Real Cynic No More]

My theory on why the Chinese haven’t pressured DPRK to stop the missiles: they want to see whether the U.S. anti-missile missiles can really shoot down offensive missiles in flight and they want to see us use them to gather what intelligence they can.

Let me say now I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know where I’m a gonna go
When the volcano blow

Ground she’s movin’ under me
Tidal waves out on the sea
Sulfur smoke up in the sky
Pretty soon we learn to fly

Let me hear ya now I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know where I’m a gonna go
When the volcano blow

Now my girl quickly say to me
Mon you better watch your feet
Lava come down soft and hot
You better lava me now or lava me not

Let me say now I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know where I’m a gonna go
When the volcano blow

No time to count what I’m worth
‘Cause I just left the planet earth
Where I go I hope there’s rum
Not to worry soon come

Interesting ..... former missiles blasting off from the site and nearby...
