Oh this will just make China ticked. They were ticked when NK admitted they had nukes. Testing one will really cause them to jerk the chain.

Maybe Hans Blix should be invited to the test. I'm sure after seeing the flash he would say he wasn't sure that NK had a nuclear weapons program.

LA?, D.C.?

More likely in some underground location in the mountains or near the DMZ. I doubt that they actually have one. But if they do, they need to test it to prove it. I'll believe they have one when I see them test one.

Maybe we can test a Hydrogen bomb, right after NK's test.

They'd probably test it as close to China's border as they could. Nothing like impressing your parents...

With any luck, maybe their test will bear a striking similarity to that Soviet rocket test that went off, not only
quite wrongly, but ahead of schedule. A lot of the VIPs, scientists and engineers were either killed outright, or
later, from the caustic rocket fuel burns.

,,, they've got old scores to settle with Japan and that's a short hop. If they were to produce six to ten warheads, at least one would have Japan's name on it.

Joseph Stalin had the atom bomb. He never used it. Mutual Assured Destruction worked once. It can work again.

Yep. The Japs might want to consider apologizing for past aggressions and making serious amends.

Or reveal their own arsenal of nuclear weapons.....it's probably a lot farther along than North Korea's.

Go ahead, make my day. Call NK's bluff. They're all talk and no bite.

"The more I talked to my friends, the more I realise that it is possible for North Korea to have a nuclear weapon by December. It is possible they'll have a test by December. There is nothing to stop North Korea from doing this."

I expect someone will think of something, maybe, JDAM's!

MAD only works if both sides wish to live. What happens when the North Koreans give the A-bomb to the Islamokazes? They can't wait to die, taking us with them. No, the North Koreans must never be allowed to develop nuclear weapons.

They'll burn out our stomachs. (Aren't they the ones who said that?)
