Iran and North korea getting hot at the same time.

Coincidence? I think not.

Cable could also be used to detonate a large cache of conventional explosives as well.

[Michael Barnes]

Over/Under on the success?

[AdmSmith]

Bad news

[Loyolas Mattman]

Iran and NK do a simultaneous test on the 22nd?

[Argus]

We oughta test a couple of ours on them first.

[kinoxi]

So few other countries (none) with the military capability and will such as the US. They may be trying to divide us for leverage knowing the international backbone doesn't exist to stop them. I trust contingencies have been made though.

"Iran and North korea getting hot at the same time.
Coincidence? I think not."

Yep and the major sponsors of Iran and North Korea - Russia and China like it. Possible scenerio: Iran or North Korea use a nuclear weapon on America through terrorist or a scud fired from a shipping container at sea. The USA nukes North Korea or Iran. Radiation spreads into China or Russia. In the interests of national security, Russia & China nuke the USA. I am finding it interesting China is now building underground cities these days while of course Russia already has several...

"Whaaaat? It just a wittle test."

"I just hope I don't nuke myself"
"You seen Maddie? I wuv Maddie wong time!"

Scary.

Chia-head and his cohorts need to be eliminated. To please the Dims, we could indict him for counterfeiting, illicit drugs, and sale of nuclear technology to a belligerent nation. Solution, send Jimmah to deal with this clown. Sort of double down on a pair.

North Korea Appears to Be Preparing for Nuclear Test

I thought Clinton fixed this problem. Wasn't this the biggest foreign policy "success" of his Presidency?

[garbageseeker]

This would also be considered a hostile act by the USA,South Koreans and the Japanese.

[onyx eyes]

It's awful. They got me to the point of almost, saying; oh, come on. do it.
Or, shut up about it....

[mainepatsfan]

This is obviously a plot by the Neocons to distract the world's attention from Iraq. /s

[Peach]

Maybe the leftists in Congress want to send in Jesse Jackson to talk or something.

Iran and North korea getting hot at the same time. Coincidence? I think not.

FWIW, I predicted as much, a few weeks back. It makes a great deal of sense for these idiots to try to spread our attention around.

I can't help recalling the debates a few years back about the likelihood of a two-theatre war. I'm guessing that debate is about to heat up again, if it's not made moot by current events.

[KJC1]

AIT, I've seen you on other North Korea threads with insight from news on the ground in Japan. I'd be interested in the reaction to this latest installment.

[Ancesthntr]

Send Carter, Clinton and Jesse Jerkson over there to negotiate. Maybe throw in HoHo Dean, Feinswine and Captain Oldsmobile for kicks.

Then nuke the joint until they don't need lights at night in Japan.

[ichabod1]

A nukular test by NJ should be a declaration of nukular war.

[Williams]

Every article about every rogue state is full of State Dept. idiocy. We are concerned about the consequences, it would be a "mistake", the World will say "tsk tsk".

These countries are developing mass destruction weapons with which to KILL us or at least blackmail us. They only understand force and threats of force. Has the Bush administration entered a fantasy world?
