That doesn't mean you aren't right, but I am merely mentioning what FoxNews is saying.

The post that had that information on Yahoo is gone so maybe it was wrong or premature.

"Now we all see who has balls and who does not."

Sadly, you shouldn't expect anyone in leadership (congress or white house) to do anything substansive. No one has the "balls" to face the situation. Plus, the public doesn't either. Quite honestly, I'm not sure I have the nerve to push for commitment of forces or resources to deal with this. I'm a hawk, and if I have lost the will to fight.....?

Did the Iranians watch?

Also just heard on Fox, that NO SEISMIC activity has been recorded in the area........
just so much BS from "Kimmy"!

Where did you get this information....please share with us!

It was a headline on Yahoo news. I just went back to find the link and it has been yanked.

"Moab"

If you are talking about the latest mega conventional explosive, where and when to use it? How do we put it on a target? What target is worth taking out?

The media rats are already spinning this as the fault of the United States. I heard the communist anchorwoman on CNN myself say that the U.S. "Instigated" this.

That means that you and 30 other people heard it.

The only thing anyone can do really is use this as an example of how not to deal with rogue nations wishing to go nuclear in the future (i.e.Iran). This may help in educating people in the value (or lack thereof) of appeasement.

Thanks.

Unfortunately the appeasers won't agree it was their actions that caused this. They will claim it was the "belicose Bush administration" that pushed N. Korea to the Nuclear option. Of course this is manure, but that's what they will say. Many of the foolish in this nation will believe them.

there would be a seismic signature.

Absolutely. We'll know soon enough whether they pulled the trigger.

....THIS is what happens when you have DEMOCRATS in the WHITEHOUSE.....they allow loonies to have nukes.....

No, Clinton/Albright gave them the technology to do so. Now this crazy son-of-a-bitch has nuclear devices because Clinton/Albright didn't think they would needed to verify Kim and his word. It will be the Rodney King defense. Can't we all just get along? The naivite of the left is going to be the undoing of the west. You cannot trust a liberal with national security. Not now. Not ever. Thank you Mr.Clinton. I hope you are proud of yourself and your secretary of state. Hell, you had that hook-nose hag toasting the little pervert for the entire world to see. Great, just great.

LOL!
