N. Korea Revealed the Video of Assembling of Hydrogen Bomb Warhead and Probably the Shaking of Punggye-ri (Site)

(Seoul=Yonhap News) On Sept. 10, N. Korea released a video of celebration for nuclear scientists and engineers who participated in their 6th nuclear test. The video contained a segment showing a video clip on the screen in the background (wall) of stage which showed scientists assembling what appears to be a hydrogen bomb warhead.

The screen showed the exploding nuclear warhead followed by the scene in which N. Korean technicians wearing protective suits were assembling an object suspected to be a nuclear warhead.

This is followed by the scene of three nuclear engineers looking into a device which appears to be an instrument panel next to a nuclear warhead marked with the writing ‘hydrogen bomb.’

In particular, after the scene of Kim Jong-un and Ri Sol-ju couple intently watching the performance stage, the video showed a mountain shaking.

While it is probably showing the shaking of Mt. Mantap in Punggye-ri, Kilju County, N. Hamkyung Province which was the test site of their 6th nuclear test, it can’t be confirmed

So what do you think about it? Do you think she got it right? Do you have anything to add?

[kralcmot]

no idea, but looking at her twitter feed....wow...its the photographic history of the US nuclear arsenal, devices, tests, monitoring, personnel. interesting.

and it goes on and on and on....a half hour into it, and no end in sight

No kidding, I just spent way too much time browsing. Lady knows her stuff.

A good idea:
Willink’s proposal didn’t involve any covert special operation strikes or military moves of any kind. Instead of bombs, Willink suggested the US drop iPhones.

“Drop 25 million iPhones on them and put satellites over them with free wifi,” Willink tweeted last week.

While the proposal itself is fantastical and far-fetched, Yun Sun, an expert on North Korea at the Stimson Center, says the core concept could work.

“Kim Jong Un understands that as soon as society is open and North Korean people realize what they’re missing, Kim’s regime is unsustainable, and it’s going to be overthrown,” Sun told Business Insider.

The strategy turns on Kim’s main calculation that the United States will say it’s not worth losing a major American city to get rid of him. This would allow him to avoid the fate of Iraq’s Saddam Hussein and Libya’s Moammar Gaddafi, who did not have nuclear weapons. Deterrence worked uneasily during the Cold War — albeit with close calls and some hair-raising moments — but it worked. Many of the same principles about mutual destruction still obtain today between major powers.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has a $3 billion to $5 billion (330 billion yen-540 billion yen) “revolutionary fund” stashed in bank accounts under false names in Switzerland and other countries, according to a South Korean analyst.

The fund has been used by successive North Korean leaders and members of the Kim dynasty, North Korea’s “royal family,” to govern the country, said Cho Bong-hyun of the Industrial Bank of Korea in Seoul.

Kim has used the fund to reward high-achieving senior officials with expensive watches and electronic goods, while the royal family has spent cash on luxury items.

(Just now found this in a window "hiding behind" other open windows...)

Since I was up all night, I took the time to do a video capture of those 26 seconds -- so that I could "stretch the timeframe", and step through it, literally a frame at a time. Bottom line: that contrived propaganda blurb is either one of the funniest -- or the scariest -- things I've seen in a long while!

~~~~~~~~~

That wasn't a film viewing. It was a massive stage production -- with the entire auditorium the stage, and the audience and live orchestra the cast.

1) For example, watch the spotlights mounted above the screen -- flash on and off repeatedly during both "explosion" sequences.

2) The first "explosion" looks more like a bunch of animated plastic flowers than it does an explosion.

3) The second explosion could have been nothing more than a close-up slo-mo of a firecracker -- with the final, fully bright screen "animated" by spotlight flashes. (I seriously doubt that any recording of an underground nuke explosion would have survived the event. Unless they were so clever as to have used fiber optic cabling or complex "lightning arrester" filtering -- the EMP propagated back through the camera cable probably would have wiped out any video recorder.)

4) The whole thing is cobbled together out of still images (or, very short video clips -- repeated and looped -- a la "Anime" cartoon animation.

IOW, It is a totally faked propaganda snowjob!

~~~~~~~~~~

Bottom line: the DPRK is a "paper tiger" -- childish enough to live in its own, imaginary world -- fueled by its own propaganda -- and stupid enough to believe its own fakery!

Anyone who announces that their (as-yet nonexistent) lone ICBM with H-bomb warhead gives them a "balance against the US" obviously has zero comprehension of the destructive power of ONE of our SSBs with multiple, MIRV'd missiles...

DPRK = Paper Tiger...

The only selling point NK has is that it will stink up and ruin the neighborhood if it is going down.
