Maybe God's gonna be the CIC on North Korea's obstinacy.

Is this near the active vulcano ?

Mountain where nuclear tests have been done may have collapsed.

Why?

Depth is 5 kilometers.

Exact same location as hydrogen bomb test.

Their weather agency is in charge of detecting and interpreting earthquakes?

Small quake - must be testing their battlefield nukes now.

Maybe Mother Nature will take care of this situation.

Now WHY in the hell would there be an earthquake centered in Pyunggyeri, of all places, the site of underground nuke tests for the DPRK, and somehow it is “natural event”?? Something stinks big time. Did they rush to set something off as a show of force and in anger over being called “rocket man” but something did not go right and the explosion was much smaller? Or non-nuclear but conventional explosives feigning nuke test?

There is a volcano called Mount Paektu within a few dozen miles of their nuclear test site that is past due for a Tambora sized (1816 year without a summer) eruption. Last big eruption was in 946.

There has been considerable alarm in the Geologist community of how North Korea has been setting off underground nukes with their accompanying earthquakes shaking it up.

Little is known about it’s magma chamber other than it’s filling. North Korea is not the most friendly place for geologists to try to do their jobs.
