"they [the Weather Underground] employed revolutionary jargon, advocated armed struggle and black liberation and began bombing buildings, taking responsibility for at least 20 attacks. Estimates of their number ranged at times from several dozen to several hundred."

In fairness to Americans, they’re certainly not unique in that respect. Lots of ignorant fools in the world. Granted, many Europeans are more aware of world events, but they still support defeatist policies, so that’s actually worse in my book.

North Korea Successfully Tests Nuclear Weapon

North Korea has staged a "successful" underground nuclear test, the communist state's official media has said.

Countries across the region went into crisis mode as North Korea defied international sanctions and condemnation and exploded its second nuclear device.

The underground blast took place at 0100 GMT and was said to be more powerful than their first test device which was detonated in October 2006.

South Korea National Security Council is going into emergency session.

Japan has mobilised a crisis task forces and has pledged to respond in a "responsible fashion."

China's foreign ministry says it is aware of the blast but has yet to issue a statement.

China is one of North Korea's few allies but was resolutely opposed to the nuclear test in 2006.

Confirmation of the test came from the North Korean News Agency.

"North Korea conducted one more underground nuclear test as part of measures to bolster up its nuclear deterrent for self-defence in every way.

The test will push the rogue state into further world isolation but will give Kim Jong Il a much needed boost at home. ...

NOW THEY HAVE LAUNCHED ONE OR A SERIES OF INTERMEDIATE RANGE MISSILES ACROSS THE SEA OF JAPAN IN A TEST. (BREAKING 1:15 a.m. Eastern Monday).

Maximum Effect.

80 miles out to sea. News broke 10 minutes ago. Get ready for me. They are coming out of Musudanri-area. I believe it is one missile launched so far, if past behavior is a judge, they will start sending out a few more spaced 20 to 30 minutes a part. This is an attempt at international terror and blackmail:

South Korea markets hit by North Korea nuclear test

Sun May 24, 2009 11:49pm EDT
By Park Jung-youn and Yoo Choonsik

SEOUL (Reuters) - Seoul stocks fell sharply and the won slipped against the dollar on concerns North Korea's nuclear test early on Monday could sap investor confidence in the South Korean markets and economy.

The main Seoul stock market's benchmark KOSPI fell 2.22 percent by 0326 GMT (11:26 p.m. EDT Sunday), although recouping much of its early more than 6 percent dip. The won was down 1 percent on the day at 1,259.9 per dollar.

North Korea said it successfully conducted a nuclear test on Monday, a move certain to further isolate the impoverished state which argues it has no choice but to build an atomic arsenal to protect itself in a hostile world ...
