N. Korea Digging Several Tunnels at Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site

At least 2 or 3 of them.

L-shaped tunnels.

Digging several of them to find the best one for the test.

Clear indication of conducting 3rd nuclear test.

P!

Gee, I hope they don’t blow themselves up.

A nuclear superpower without food. How’s that working out for y’all over there?

[null and void]

I don’t think their first test was a dud.

I think it was a fully functional neutron bomb.

Have to wonder what the Japanese would do if the Nork underground test turns into a “leaker.”

I remember back in the mid-90's at the Pentagon - and this is just a recollection of now-obsolete smoking tunnel talk, given the time that has elapsed - I asked a staff officer what the big issue was, and he replied, "The damn North Koreans. They have tunnels dug so deep into the mountains, we don't know what the hell they're up to." One would assume our NSA spy birds are a little more sophisticated now. I hope.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

Yongbyon nuke plant is easy to find. Where is Punggye-ri?

Let us hope they fail.

Possible, but not likely. Most of their materials seems to have come from reprocessing fuel. Too much P240 would explain the low yield of the weapons. If they’ve found a way to reduce the impurities, they’ll have a real weapon with a yield in the 10-20kt range, if not higher. The next question would be whether they can put it on a missile, or not.

It’s a quandary. And they’ve been tunneling for a long time. It was supposedly the communist Korean engineers who in large part built the extensive tunnels our troops had to deal with in Vietnam.
